@Bryce Harrington: I tried the patch from bug #151 and it didn't help this situation either. I believe the purpose of that patch is to provide values to improve colour reproduction, and while it's a good patch that has (IIRC) been pushed upstream, it doesn't help with this particular bug.
@Thomas Fritzsche: I tried the proposed patch you referred to in comment #161, and while the default values have been redefined, totem-gstreamer still continues to modify these settings without user consent. Each time you open a movie with totem-gstreamer, the following occurs: XV_BRIGHTNESS is reduced by 1 point; XV_CONTRAST is reduced by 2 points; XV_SATURATION is reduced by 3 points. Also, it seems XV_COLORKEY increases by 5 points (from 66046 to 66051) after the first invocation of totem, but it remains stable at 66051, unlike the three attributes above. @James McPhee: this bug report is for Intel cards only, your linked bug is not related. -- totem overrides XV_CONSTRAST/XV_SATURATION to wrong default value (Xv movies on i810/i945 have horrible colour/gamma/contrast) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/32963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
