Getting a lot of color wash when watching videos in the client. End up having to drop the resolution really low to make it behave. Are there any ways to make it stop doing this?

EDIT: Found Delfin on software manager. Seems to be behaving for now. Thanks to everyone that responded.

    I’ve had a similar issue with a purple wash with HDR content; my TV wasn’t displaying it correctly but it was fine on my phone.

    Unless you are transcoding a particular video, the server has nothing to do with it since it’s just sending the raw video stream.

    On your PC the client probably uses the OS’s capabilities for decoding, so that depends on the hardware you have and the codecs that are installed. I can’t really help with that, but there’s gotta be more information out there.
