  1. Ugly Video Playback across all the apps


    I'm using Legion Y540 i5-9300H, GTX1650, 8GB RAM and Windows 1909. Everything was fine till yesterday but now the video playback is utter trash. The videos lack saturation and contrast and are oversharp. This is happening in all the apps including MPC-HC, PotPlayer, inbuilt Films and TV and in the browsers too. I don't know what to do. I also removed the Nvidia drivers using DDU and reinstalled the latest ones but nothing happened. I reinstalled the MPC and PotPlayer too. One strange anachronism is that VLC is just fine when it comes to quality but black screen flashes time to time whenever I move the cursor, enter full-screen and take screenshot. I don't know why its happening. I didn't install or remove any component or application. PS- Images and UI are fine only video playback is like this. So problem is not with the display.
