Pietrach Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hi A very annoying issue. I edit my photographs in photoshop or any similar program so that I get jpegs looking the way I want them. Then I import them into VideoPad and they instantly change appearance. The saturation and colour balance is totally different. Can you explain this to me? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hi In short....No. Unless your Photoshop colour profile is not correct. Try sRGB. My experience is that jpegs (edited using Picture Publisher, not Photoshop) import to VP and look just like the original. Can you upload examples with a post of before and after images.(Using- say, .Pictr.com) It might become more obvious what is happening. What version VP are you using? If the jpegs look fine when saved from Photoshop they should import to VP OK. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_major Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Hi, VideoPad used a fast approximation to render preview. That's a common strategy while performance is more important. For example white color (R:255 G:255 B:255) will be displayed on screen as R:253 G:253 B:253. We are well aware of this issue but we decided that the performance is more important for preview. This only effect preview windows and will not effect the exported video and the snapshot feature. Another reason I can think of is that video codecs are using YUV color space. There will be another approximation when converting RGB to YUV. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YUV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
