Agreed, certainly an easily rectifiable issue present here also....

I noticed it from the first day, mp4's and some playback video 'black' borders weren't exactly deep black but had a grey hue.

A Limited Dynamic range is the culprit for sure!

The limited Dynamic range is more noticeable in standard playback mode than in Cinema mode....

Let's hope they give us the full Dynamic Range spectrum of (0-255) colours in any upcoming beta and full patches.

C'mon Cyberlink... bring on those 36 other missing colours for the World No.1 Movie and Media Player....

I'm using Power DVD 14 Ultra on a 64-bit Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center Operating System.

Hi,
this is limitation of your Graphics Card Drivers - you can/need to change it in the driver settings.

But in the Nvidia Control Panel, it reports: With the video player settings

I have no problem with the other video players.

Same goes, using Nvidia Settings it enables us to utilize the 'with Video Player Settings' option,

No other Video Players / Cineplayer / Corel Win DVD Pro 11 / WMC or WMP require the 'with the Nvidia Settings' option which involves configuring them individually ourselves using the advanced tab.

See the attached screenshot please... thankyou

It has me wondering if Cyberlink possibly didn't even realise that they can natively define their own Video Color profile and Video Preferences into the Power DVD Player for Nvidia Graphics Card users to optimize the appearance?

P.S: As you could imagine:

We don't want to be running back and forth just manually tweaking this setting repeatedly to enjoy a Full Dynamic colour range.

No other Video Players or Software even require such an obviously resolvable resolution dozens of time explicitly to use their software, even in Windows 8.1 WMC or WMP

There must be a solution enabling Cyberlink to stipulate a full colour range within the code or a proven detection API method.

Works fine here, but I have a ATI card. My collection: http://www.blu-ray.com/community/collection.php?u=194008&action=showcategory&category=1&categoryid=7
