Pinkish color while watching video
    #5294193 - 02/13/06 09:57 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

While I'm watching a DVD or streaming video I get areas of a pinkish color. It will be on peoples faces in movies. It's all over the body while watching porn, so I hear. It's on pictures too.

Games looks great and I don't notice anything wrong while playing them. Is my video card getting hot and causing this or is it driver related, etc ?

Definitely not video card getting hot, it would run hotter when playing games, not movies.

Sounds like a codec issue...

Download the newest codec versions of what you have installed or get www.videolan.org (VLC)

Maybe it's a problem with your monitor. I had a monitor that grudually displayed a yellower and yellower picture. Is it a newish monitor?

Try playing about with the gamma/rgb settings in your monitor config.

The monitor is about 1 1/2 years old. It's a Sylvania 17" LCD.

I shutdown my pc and let it sit 5 hours and now video looks better. No more pink areas. DVD quality is still not as clear as it should be, kinda grainy.

I had the same problem. I'm pretty sure I fixed it with a new version of media player and codecs.
