P.S. View it on youtube. For some reason this embedded version is darker than it should be.

My “graphics driver” doesn’t give me that option. I told you it’s an integrated Intel 3D graphics card with 0 RAM assigned to it. Reinstalling VLC won’t do anything as I get the same result in Quicktime and Windows Media Player.
Here’s what I’m gonna do. This short 8 second clip looks perfect in Premiere Pro. The skin tone is exactly what my skin tone looks like in real life. In VLC it tends towards pink/purple. When I move it more towards yellow, it just adds yellow to my skin tone, it doesn’t “de-pink” it. Anyway, here’s the clip. You tell me, on your professional, calibrated monitors (NOT being sarcastic here) how this clip looks to you. I checked the youtube version to the VLC and it matches so what you’re seeing would look the same to you in VLC.
Please, all of you who color grade and have calibrated monitors, weigh in. It may be my PC and monitor is causing me all this grief and I’m wasting my time tweaking (which I’ve tried many times, both the PC and Intel graphics calibration and my HDTV’s calibration tools)

Try reading my posts! It’s not a problem between Premiere Pro and AME. It’s between Premiere Pro and media players, like VLC. Look at the picture I posted above. Half is Premiere Pro’s Program Window, untouched, footage straight from the camera, and the other side is the same footage in VLC, straight from the camera.
Now, it turns out that VLC has a whole bunch of settings you can use to tweak color, gamma, etc., but they’re so sensitive they’re useless. Just looking at the hue control sends the colors way off.
As for unchecking render in composite linear or whatever it is, that changes my aspect ratio! My video loses width and gets black bars on the sides. So that’s not an option either.

Yes, I’m on a PC, but they have app cleaner for PC as well. It runs as a command prompt and you choose which programs you want to clean off your system, including creative cloud.

If you uninstall from the Control Panel it opens the app manager to do the uninstalling.

I seem to remember a time when I could not uninstall any cc 2014 programs. If I remember correctly, find the folder named OOBE. Don’t delete it in case I’m wrong, but temporarily rename it, then try to uninstall Premiere Pro cc.

For the millionth time, I’m not using Quicktime player. I am well aware of the problem with Quicktime player. I am using VLC. And, again, you don’t have to export to get that color difference. You can open a file in Premiere Pro and compare it to the original open in VLC and see there’s a difference in color cast towards yellow. I put up an image of half VLC/half Premiere Pro.
And for your information, David, I’m 62, I graduated from high school LONG before the focus shifted from science to homosexual studies.

Been there, done that.

Here, you can’t get any more obvious than this.
On the right is the unmodified straight out of camera file, still frame in VLC.
On the left is the same file opened in Premiere Pro, with NOTHING done to it.
Obviously a yellow cast. If I color correct it, it will push it too far towards pink. I can calibrate until the cows come home and it’s not going to make two different images look the same on the same monitor when they’re obviously different. Again, that’s VLC, NOT Quicktime.
Now who’s the lunatic!?! Don’t answer that.

I think I may have discovered why encodes have a color shift in them. It’s not the encode, it’s Premiere Pro. I just opened a new file, no effects or lumetri or ANYTHING added to it, and I noticed it looked yellower than the original file. I never open my original file before opening it in Premiere Pro but this time I did. I noticed that I was getting fairly good skin tone, but in Premiere Pro it had a yellow cast. So, obviously, if I go to tweak the colors in Premiere Pro to, say, give the skin tone a more pinkish hue, I’m actually pushing it towards the purple hue I get when I encode it. So it’s not Media Encoder, it’s Premiere Pro.
Again, something for somebody at Adobe to look into. Assuming I’m not the only person left staying with this.
