I'm getting yellowish colors while enabling hardware acceleration intel 6100 cpu (kodi)

SSerg12 — Fri, 24 Mar 2017 14:42:05 GMT

While enabling the hardware acceleration i'm getting over saturated colors and specifically too much yellow. Kodi's forum suggested updating the driver to the latest one something that I already did with no luck. Or disabling the hardware acceleration feature.

My motherboard is Asus Z170-a . CPU skylake 6100.

Thank you in adcanced

Let me know if issue persists or not.

After installing the latest driver, I am still getting the same problem. The colors are over saturated and the skin or any face is almost yellow as if it was hit by the sun.

Hello SERGiooooo,

Does the application work fine if you disable hardware acceleration?

I found an article online which advise to disable hardware acceleration in Kodi application in order to get better picture quality. This is the link to the website http://lifehacker.com/how-to-get-better-picture-quality-from-your-home-theate-1700412363 http://lifehacker.com/how-to-get-better-picture-quality-from-your-home-theate-1700412363

Since Kodi's forum advised you to disable hardware acceleration then I think that would be the best option.

I finally found the problem. In the tray the intel software now I can change the video tab settings from there. To be honest it is hard to fine tune very well.

If there is any predefind settings that would help improve the streaming quality I would really appreciate it.

Hello SERGiooooo,

I am glad to hear you were able to find the root cause of the problem.

We recommend using default graphics settings on the Intel Graphics Control Panel. If default graphics settings do not work correctly then it will be required to adjust settings manually just the way you are currently doing it. You can load default graphics settings by pressing Ctrl+Al+F8 on your keyboard.

Let me know if you have or not any other inquiry.

Regards,

Fred
