Brightness too high (1 Viewer)

[Franky]

I'm using MP 1.0 RC1 with last weekly svn and an NVidia 8600 mainly with cybelink Mpeg2 H.264 decoders and EVR.
The problem bothers me now is that I get a brightness too high in MP if compared with DVBViewer or ZoomPlayer with the same exact graph and EVR. It happens with mpeg2 and h.264 movies and TVs. To explain better I can give the follow wxample: with NVidia control panel I have to use a brightness at 50 for DVBViewer and ZoomPlayer and ad 43 to get the same result in MP. I know that this problem can be related to the range color levels 0-255 instead of 16-235. But I don't understand why one player is different from the other with same codecs and reder (cyberlink 7-8 and evr). Seem that MP sets a 0-255 range while the others use 15-235.
Has anybody an idea about how to get same results with different softwares?
Until few moths ago the situation was different...
Thanks

I found some more information...
the answear can be here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ta-known-issues-mediaportal-36529/index2.html
but I think can be a way to get the same behaviour for all player with same graph (codecs and render), because the difference in brightness force to make a choice between players/front-ends, since it's impossible to change the brightnes every time I change player...

here probably the solution for nVidia users: http://downloads.guru3d.com/
with last beta drivers 177.66 there is a new panel in video settings called advanced
(I suppose because I have Italian version) where you can choose the dynamic color range between 16-235 or 0-255...
Now behaviour of different players seems the same... and I prefer 0-255,
