color issue with vlc Solved

Question

slt
for a while my VLC player has been acting up :s
actually, when I play any video, the screen is tinted blue, meaning the skin of the characters is blue, for example, everything turns blue, you know :s
how is that possible? it used to work just fine, then one day it just started glitching
I uninstalled and reinstalled but nothing works :s
then I saw in the "Device Manager" that no driver was installed for my video card, I checked with Everest the brand and everything and I see it says: ATI Radeon IGP-320 (1)
but I can't find the driver on the manufacturer's site or I tried one that didn't work even though it was suggested to me :s
anyway, I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but it's better that you know this to tell me why it’s not working
thanks

Hi,
Personally, I have the same problem except that the image is tinted red or green (depending on the movies). VLC was working perfectly before.
For your information, I have the same issue with Bs player and Zoomplayer.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Hello, I have the same problem with red instead of blue, but I can't find an answer to this question anywhere. Is it my reader, my graphics card, or my motherboard? If you have solved this problem, please help me. Thank you.

I also have the same problem. I downloaded K-lite codec ( http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm ) and when I play a video with Media Player Classic, you can feel the difference!!!

yozen · Answer

I installed the codecs but I'm still having the same problem when I play a video on VLC; it is tinted blue and I don't know what to do.

p.roc · Answer

Check if you have recently updated your video. For example, by installing a driver that increases video display, especially for those who use games.
The issue of dominance is likely to come from there.
This is the case with ASUSEnhancedDriver133, which causes a green tint on videos.
Uninstall this plugin.
If the problem persists, uninstall your codecs; it is not uncommon for some to interfere with others.
Good luck.

The problem only comes from the color settings in Windows where the hue and saturation must be set to 50% for both values (nVidia)

Hello everyone... I personally had the same issue with the tinted blue that just appeared about an hour ago after a Windows update... I uninstalled the update and... no more blue :/ it's weird

NeverMind · Answer

A bit the same thing...
All my video files, regardless of the player (VLC or Windows Media Player), are almost black and white :( including original DVDs or DivX.
This has been going on for several months and I haven't found a solution.

NVIDIA GeForce Go 6400 card on a Vaio, can’t find an update for the driver...

If anyone has any idea?
Thanks.

Or you can just click on restore all in settings, preferences, videos :)

homergamer · Answer

Hi everyone, actually your player set to video overlay, you need to uncheck it in the preferences of all players that have this problem. See you!

Désolé pour la faute de frappe, je répète ne pas le mettre en superposition...

didi · Answer

Hi everyone, actually I had the problem with the "blue screen" when I was watching a movie.  I reinstalled the driver for my graphics card and everything went back to normal.  Hope this helps you out.

A unknown guy · Answer

If it helps, I had the same problem: a blue-tinted screen on all the video players I had.
I have an "ATI Radeon" video card and I went to check in the "Catalyst Control Center" (double-click on the red "ATI" icon at the bottom right of the taskbar) and I managed to fix the issue by going to "Avivo Video" -> "Presets", changing presets, and then clicking on Defaults.

TiRiKoOu · Answer

Your color issue on VLC may be related to your display quality; at least, that was the case for me. I switched from 16-bit to 32-bit, and voilà! Perfect colors... For beginners, go to Control Panel, Appearance and Personalization, Resolution, the Settings tab in the Color Quality section, and enjoy. Don't forget to apply your changes.
Good luck to all those struggling, as watching a movie with incorrect colors is not enjoyable.

Chris · Answer

Verify that your display is set to 32 bits. For me it was set to 16; switching it to 32 resulted in no more blue!

math 2000 · Answer

I found you have to click on the button at the bottom right but to the left of sound, then video effects and set the tint in the middle.

magicp · Answer

I confirm that the adjustment works perfectly when switching to OpenGL. As a fun fact, the issue was quite curious for me. I have two screens, and on the left screen the color was normal, but as soon as I switched the video to the right screen, the video turned blue. Before finding the post, I was pulling my hair out a bit...

Since I restored my computer, all my movie colors are washed out and blue. What should I do/How do I restore the colors? Thank you.

Léa d'oRION · Answer

I have all my video colors washed out. How can I restore the right color drivers? I lost them after a restoration! Thank you.

math 2000 · Answer

Look in the control panel for the video card settings; there might be something for the colors of the player. In any case, I’ve already had that issue with NVIDIA and it was just that.

albert · Answer

Really, you are a genius. I thank you infinitely for this information. My problem is solved. I switched from 16-bit to 32-bit, and the color in my VLC is now adjusted. Albert

albert · Answer

The answer is simple by SOBHI, you right-click on the screen, then click on customize, then on display settings, and there will appear a manuscript with a box where NM 1 is, and on color you will change the bit from 16 to 32 bit and your VLC will return to normal SOBHI.

SOBHI · Answer

Good evening everyone, to solve the VLC problem gentlemen, see SOBHI's answer here in the forum, it's the right one without looking elsewhere; it's the most reliable remedy and your VLC will work very well, and the color of your video will change, that's all, without complicating things. SOBHI
