Problem:
Software for ambient light systems do not synchronise well with TV picture at all refresh rates. A delay set for 50hz video will be too early for 24hz. Not sure why but never mind :)
Solutions:
AtmoLight understands this and calculates a different delay per refresh rate. This mostly works but can be affected by TV settings...

Thanks, will look into the AtmoWin code and see if I can find the cause :)
What might be needed is to add a check current mode function and re-apply any changes on the save settings / window close so hopefully gonna have an testing version for you soon with that already included.

You are right, i just tested it and can confirm that its not working as intended.

The gamma value used to be inverted, so you use values like 0.1 or 0.45. However in one of the updates angie inverted it back so we can use normal gamma values like 2.2 (which was 0.45 before). So thats maybe why it didnt work for you, as you had to invert your gamma settings to get the same result as before.

The "Windows 8 is better" part is specific to AtmoWins performance in gathering the screen captures.
