Colours changing when I upload to Vimeo/YouTube

Don’t worry. Nobody else is using Firefox. 🙂

well maybe it’s a UK thing, but i know lots of firefox users 🙁

Sounds like an issue to bring to Mozilla’s attention then. Though I’m guessing they’ve long known about it for a while already and perhaps don’t consider color accurate web video a major priority?

The best you can do is export a ProRes master and deliver that. How it’s encoded by YouTube or Vimeo…and how Firefox or Safari or Chrome display that…is out of your control. Nothing you can do about it. I deliver shows to TV networks, and I can say that they get compressed by the network, and then sent out via satellite to various cable providers, who then encode that signal again for their delivery system. And I can’t control that.

So it might look one way on Spectrum in Los Angeles, but different on Comcast in NY, and COX in Missouri.

To top that off, everyone’s TVs (or in your case, computer monitors) are calibrated different, so THAT is a factor in what colors people see.
