Upgraded to latest Ubuntu, currently 9.10. Videos used to work fine. Now, playing videos using VLC or any other media player shows them 'sepia' tinged when playing. This is annoying. I remember this used to happen on occasion (after resuming from suspect), and I forget what I fiddled with to make it better. Does anyone have the method to force video to render correctly with this combination? It happens even after a reboot.

Thanks

If its only the video that gets sepia tinged, maybe you have tweaked the driver gamma correction for video playback. However, I have no clue why this should kick in only after a standby cycle.

I had the same problem. I changed to a previous version of the NVidia driver (version 173) and it worked.
