Title: Videos playing in Black and White [Solved]
Post by: jondavis on October 13, 2022, 12:09:16 pm
Tried a couple of them.
First in JRiver 28 and decided I wanted to upgrade anyways.
So now have JRiver 30 and still the videos are in Black and White.
Probably a setting somewhere I'm guessing.

Ok, after jumping around to different videos they started playing in color again.
I did not change any settings yet.

Make sure your cable connections are tight.

Wild.

What kind of cable are you using?

That's pretty rare with HDMI. Usually the HDMI failures I've experienced present as full colored pixel noise (in other words a bunch of 100% Red, Green or Blue pixels, with a weird preference for Green) or dropouts.

These were recorded videos on my hard drive.
I was not streaming.
VLC played them in color but JRiver was playing in black and white until I did a reboot.
