The color correction can be done on the server. It just needs to get and upload your monitor profile, and Photoshop on the server returns color corrected pixels. Of course, Chrome cannot even read the monitor profile on Linux yet. I'm not sure if this also applies to Chromebooks though. Since it's a fixed device, it probably ships with the monitor profile file factory stored somewhere. Or Adobe gets the files for the few dozen or so Chromebooks from Google, and the browser only sends an identifier.

- dchest 12y agoI guess they are using VP9, which has 4:4:4 chroma subsampling: http://youtu.be/xo_R40C7RTo?t=3m35s http://youtu.be/xo_R40C7RTo?t=3m35s
- dchest 12y agoCorrection: H.264 also has 4:4:4. If you see artifacts, that probably means it wasn't correctly compressed.
- hamburglar 12y agoAdobe has spent decades worrying about color accuracy in their applications in every path it can take to your eyeball and they're not just going to screw up the last hop because it didn't occur to them to take the effect of whatever remoting technology they're using into account.
- JetSpiegel 12y agoBased on the backlash over Creative Cloud, I don't think they really care.
- sliverstorm 12y agoHas there been backlash over color accuracy in Creative Cloud? Because there are a lot of things Adobe might not care about as much as you'd like- but color accuracy is one of the things they care about A LOT. (I spent a summer working in an art computing lab, nearly every minute of which was spent managing color accuracy)
