Incorrect video colours during playback

Hello and thanks for this help!

 

I have a HP Pavilion S3130.uk connected to a HP w2207h monitor.  The colours are great in all still images, photo's etc.  However, when I play any video, the colours are totally incorrect - usually blue skin etc.  This happens mainly on my university work (which has no encryption which I thought was the problem).

 

I connect the two using a DVI out from the PC to the HDMI connection on the monitor.  I have tried changing the connection to an analogue one but the problem is still the same.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Dan

Re: Incorrect video colours during playback

TF, here is a link to the "Product information" page for your monitor:

 

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/prodinfoCategory?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us〈=en&product=3543988

 

Open the link and go to the section titled "Using and adjusting your monitor". 

 

I suggest that you read through it and then, I would make the appropriate adjustments.  It may be that the monitor is not adjusted properly.

 

Try this and let us know if it helps.

Thank you for your reply, however, none of the adjustments work.  I suspect that the problem lies with DRM as photographs are fine but videos from iTunes do not work.

 

I think I may just have to suffer the colours but not what I wanted from this expensive monitor!!

 

|Thanks again (unless you have another suggestion!)
