    I made a m2v with cce and avisynth from an avi created with my minidv camcorder. I see that the colors are not right. The bright blues look aqua and the dark blues look black, the yellows look like beige, the pinks look very light and the purple looks gray. The m2v on my computer screen looks ok. I tried using dvdlab with ntsc color safe on and off and still get same result. Is there a way to get the colors back to their original status.

    I guess I should clarify that the colors from the dvd on my tv are not correct. The m2v colors on my computer screen look ok.

  3. I believe that the NTSC color safe option in DVD-Lab is only for the menus that are created by DVD-Lab.

    The video, if the colors are off on the TV, are probably a fucntion of either how they are captured or encoded, or a side effect of any kind of filtering used.

  4. You are correct. The Safe Color option is only for menus.
    I did a movie called Identity over the weekend that came out the same way you are explaining. I have done tons of movies and never had this problem. Even on the same DVD as Identity I had another movie and it did not have this issue. Identity looks fine on my PC but on the TV no. My guess is the DVD was encoded in some different color format like RGB instead of YV12 and that is why it looks so different from others, even though nothing was different for this encode. It is definitely not an issue with DVDLab though.
