Hey Mercer, did you ever find out about this? I've always noticed it and is pretty annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrome causes a bad color shift for me, while Microsoft Edge is accurate. It's not a minor shift either :/ Dan Wake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I was having similar issues with YT when viewed in Google Chrome or Safari after reducing file sizes with MPEG Streamclip, but now that I just export directly from within FCP, the colors are okay again.

Bioskop.Inc Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I use Firefox & I don't get a colour shift, but things that i've uploaded recently have lost some contrast - not that much of a big deal, but it's there. I also use FCPX, but have stopped uploading directly & just export the project to ProRes LT or Proxy and then upload that (it does solve the whole converting H264 into H264 via Vimeo). The browser issue has been known for ages, as is what player you use to view your files on your computer - everything is slightly different, nothing is equal. It is annoying that you can't tweek these things, like you can a TV when you buy a new one! Maybe one solution would be to callibrate your computer screen & save one profile for your NLE & then another for viewing on the Internet......

People should be happy with it, it makes it look more filmic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cantsin Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 The color shifts are most likely cause by the fact that browsers like Firefox and Safari support color management (i.e. the system-wide ICC monitor profile) while Chrome lacks color management support.

sondreg Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 In Google Chrome you have the option to use hardware acceleration in the settings, this is usually turned off. I know that in youtube this fixes a gamma shift, maybe it fixes color shift too? Haven't tested anything with vimeo myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
