    hello there,

    avid xpress pro 5.5.3

    when i playback footage as well in the player as in the recorder the colors slightly change when i stop the playback, which makes a color correction nearly impossible.

    any suggestions how to change this?

    Hi,

    If you look in the ReadMe that came with your version of Xpress Pro, there should be a section that tells you how to set up the video overlay settings of your Nvidia card to prevent the color shift from happening.

    If you can’t find it, try Googling “Avid video overlay.”

    That said, if your sequence is eventually going to be shown on a television, you should be using an external monitor to color correct.

    good luck,
    Carl
