Description Of Issue

Colors are not displaying correctly in Roon, whether in Dark Mode or Light mode.

In the attached pic, most of the text on album art is hard to read due to high gamma/contrast.

[Jean_Gonzalez]

In this album cover, most of the details on the singer’s face are lost in overwhelming contrast.

Comparing the album art in Roon with how it’s displayed on the artist’s website, you can see all the details lost in Roon’s display of the album art.

Hey @Jean_Gonzalez – is this on Windows? What GPU are you using?

Also, any custom color profiles active?

[Jean_Gonzalez]

Yes, this is on Windows 10, I’m not using a GPU, I’m using onboard graphics

[mike (Mike Fass)]

If you go into Device Manager, what do you see under Display Adapters? Can you post a screenshot?

@Jean_Gonzalez Are your video drivers up-to-date? The most recent Intel graphics drivers can be obtained here.

The other thing to check is whether or not you have the wrong color profile selected in your display settings:

[Jean_Gonzalez]

Thank you, I’m going to give this a try tonight, I’ll report back later.

[Jean_Gonzalez]

The Intel website tells me that I have the latest drivers, I’m still trying to figure out if there is an issue with a color profile. I think this is the most probable culprit.
