Changing DVD region on your PC

Post by Sun_Wukong » Sat Nov 18, 2006 5:28 pm

After changing your dvd player on your pc to Japan's settings, when you change them back are the colors supposed to look funky?

When I changed it back to normal settings, the colors on my monitor didnt look right. Did I do something?

No clue. Wouldn't it be better to actually ask a DVD playback forum such as AnimeonDVD rather than here? They'd be able to figure it out. You've also not posted what region it went back to, what sort of computer you have, what it has, what sort of DVD player you have in it, etc etc.

You can also try http://www.videohelp.com. There's some knowledgeable people on the forums there.

Regional controls have no effect on colors. You might wanna check your monitor settings, then your gamma settings, and so forth.

Perhaps he inadvertently changed a colour setting (or maybe Pal/NTSC change, though I can't see how that would change his colour).

I dont know what I did, it seems that icons and pictures have a green tint around them. I hope its not my monitor.
