Attached are two screen shots. The first is this page showing the green tine. The second is the same page opened in a new window which shows the correct colors.

I have two displays on my PC. If I disable one of the displays, this issue does not occur.

Does this go away when setting chrome://flags/#enable-color-correct-rendering to "disabled"? I'm having a similar problem on a Linux laptop – with blue becoming _purple_ – and disabling the "color-correct" rendering was a workaround.

Update – disabling the "autodetected" ICC profile in GNOME's color settings also fixes the problem in my case. So try doing the same in your Windows display settings – either the installed profile is wrong, or Chrome is misinterpreting it.

If I change chrome://flags/#enable-color-correct-rendering to disabled the problem goes away. It appears Chrome is misinterpreting the ICC profiles when there is more than one monitor connected. I have 2 different brands and sizes of monitors. I am unable to test whether the problem happens with two identical monitors.

cc'ing ccameron@ for further triage of the bug.

Could you attach the ICC profiles of the two monitors? Windows should correctly handle multi-monitor (though it may require a window resize to snap to the right color profile). Linux doesn't yet support multi-monitor color profiles (it uses whatever the _ICC_PROFILE atom is set to).

I'm having a brownish overlay on my second monitor (benq), chrome://flags/#enable-color-correct-rendering disable gives a temporary fix.

In my case, I only have *one* monitor (laptop LCD panel), but I suspect that the autodetected profile might be wrong. (Apparently the list has two of them, detected by different GNOME versions, for the same monitor, but with opposite data...) Attaching both.

Re #10, the color profile in BenQ GW2406Z.ICM is indeed very brown. Unless you intentionally set this color profile, please un-set it. Re #11, this is not as bad as #10, but also not great. For Chrome 61, disabling color correct rendering will make Chrome assume that you have an sRGB monitor. In Chrome 62 (and possibly a re-spin of Chrome 61), there will be an explicit option in about:flags where you can tell Chrome to ignore your installed color profile, and use sRGB instead.

I have 2 monitors. My primary display is a ViewSonic VX2739wm. My secondary display is a Dell 1708FP. Both displays are connected via DVI. The Dell is rotated vertically. If I launch Chrome on the Dell display, the colors display correctly. If I launch Chrome on the Viewsonic, the colors display incorrectly, but ONLY if the Dell is connected. If I disconnect the Dell, the Viewsonic always displays the colors correctly in Chrome. The ViewSonic profile (VX2739wm.ICM) is the only profile configured on the Devices tab for the ViewSonic. The Dell profile (1708FP.ICM) is the only profile configured on the Devices tab for the Dell. Removing both of these profiles from Color Management does not fix the problem.

ccameron (#12): Thanks; I think just I'll set the system-wide profile to sRGB so that other apps won't have similar problems. (By the way, you linked to issue 755747 which is not visible to the public, is that intended?)

Re #12, the profile is automatically installed by system and I've not tuned it manually, also, trying to remove the profile will not affect this issue, the color is still incorrect.

Re #15 -- Chrome is correctly interpreting that color profile (I installed it on a Mac and everything turned brown). Changing the monitor's color profile to sRGB will fix the issue, though you may need to restart Chrome for the change to take effect.

Re #16, the problem still persist with sRGB default |
