VLC has the same problem as Chrome vs. Safari for me on OS X: It's not color correct, ignores monitor color profiles and colors look washed out in direct comparison to QuickTime.
I'm guessing many people are not aware of that on their Macs.
At least Chromium seems finally to work on this after more than 5 years https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=44872 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=44872
I wished I do not need to switch to QuickTime or Safari to have correct bright colors for enjoying videos & images :/
- netheril96 10y agoChrome has color problems? I am curious about this. Can you point me to more specifics?
- therealmarv 10y agolook at the linked chrome bug link. But you can also see it yourself. Open an image you know very well on both Chrome and Safari and compare side by side. I can even see it on opening http://imgur.com http://imgur.com in Chrome and Safari and comparing the results. I recognize it the most on skin tones. Chrome is washed out a little and in Safari it looks nice. You can see it even more on videos. Go to the same minute/second and compare Chrome and Safari.
- netheril96 10y agoI don't find any difference.
