So after installing Vista I've noticed that every videos you play - no matter if through WMP11 or VLC etc - you get too bright an image. Here's an example:

The first one was taken on XP Pro SP2 using VLC. The second was taken on Vista Ultimate 32bit also using VLC:



Any ideas?

Is there no way to fiddle with the nvidia control panel? There must be a way to fix this shit.

In the nvidia settings you can alter the color correction settings for just overlays, and there is a settings screen for overlays, those are for videos, you can make them darker there.

Yeah, but I think Vista no longer uses the regular overlays we're used to from 2000/XP, and I'm not sure what the CP changes. If it's for the old overlays system, it won't change much.
