Gamma shift occurs when GPU acceleration is enabled

Reported by haydst...@gmail.com, Mar 25 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.181 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
www.youtube.com

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Make sure hardware acceleration is enabled in chrome
2. Play a youtube video
3. Note that everything is light, even when no content is displayed (i.e. 'black screen') the screen is still grey.

What is the expected behavior?
black screen is black, when video is playing in chrome it should look exactly the same as in other browsers or when playing locally

What went wrong?
The black parts of the video are grey and all of the video is lighter than when it is played in another browser, locally, or in chrome with HW acceleration turned off.

Did this work before? Yes Not entirely sure, it was before v63 though

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? Both

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 65.0.3325.181  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.3
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 29.0 r0

Looks very similar to this issue
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=748076

That was on MacOS though, I reported this issue on that issues page and was asked to create a new bug report if the issue still persisted.
Labels: Needs-Bisect Needs-Triage-M65

Tested the issue on chrome reported version 65.0.3325.181 using Windows-7 with steps mentioned below:
1) Launched chrome reported version and navigated to URL's: https://youtu.be/K5WQzgRYnZ0, http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php & http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/gradient.php as per comment#2 
2) Able to see the video playing same like in other browsers
Observations: Tested this by enabling an disabling the hardware acceleration in chrome://settings, didn't observed any  black parts of the video are grey in color

@Reporter: Please find the attached screen cast for your reference and let us know if we missed anything in verifying the issue, if possible could you please provide any test file/URL which reproduces the issue, which helps us in further triaging the issue in better way, any further inputs on it from your end maybe helpful.

Hi there,

Thanks for the quick reply and the test.

This seems to be specific to certain hardware I think, because it's not happening for everyone, it's definitely happening to more than just me though.

Please see attached screen cast where I follow the same examples.

The change is most notable on the youtube video, although some increase in gamma is visible on the lcd black test. Almost indistinguishable on the gradient page. This is very very noticeable on videos, but not very much on images at all.

As I mentioned in my previous post, this seems to be specific to certain hardware.

The issue does not happen for everyone, but it definitely happens for more than just me.

I'm not sure why you attached another screen cast when you can see the issue definitely happens on my hardware.

Happy to be involved in beta testing on my hardware if that will help.

As per comment#4 & 8, unable to reproduce the issue from TE end hence removing Needs-Bisect label. Requesting some one from the Internals > Media team have a look at this issue.

Thanks!
All of the displays here have an sRGB color profile, so it's not on the display side.

Maybe there's an issue with the video color space? Maybe hubbe@ has ideas.

give to hubbe@ to take a look.
I seem to be having the same issue - I've been seeing this for a while now in Vivaldi, but only now have finally managed to verify the same issue is present in Chromium and Chrome for me as well.

For me, though, it seems to be definitely related to monitor profile.

If I'm using my normal XYZLUT color profile for my monitor, this is what I see with hardware acceleration enabled:

https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-nQ27wpM/0/10a18b95/O/i-nQ27wpM.png

If I disable HW acceleration, this is what I get using the same monitor profile:

https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-jPqLjM6/0/1faffa7b/O/i-jPqLjM6.png

As you can see, the dark tones are way too bright with HW acceleration turned on. The display profile was created using DisplayCAL and Spyder 3, but I've also tried generating one using the default Spyder 3 software and the same thing happens, so it doesn't seem like it's strictly DisplayCAL related.

The only way I was able to get the same result with both HW accel enabled and disabled was by either just using the generic sRGB monitor profile, or creating a simple single curve profile using DisplayCAL. With single curve profile, this is what I get regardless of HW acceleration setting in Chromium:

https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-NTZ4J8w/0/2e1c5c06/O/i-NTZ4J8w.png

Neither is much of a solution, obviously, since this pretty much equals to not using color management at all or very basic in case of the single curve profile. Same applies to forcing Chromium to sRGB via flags, which also seems to work, but obviously disables the custom color profile.

Needless to say the XYZLUT profile works perfectly fine in any other color managed application including Firefox, it is just Chromium (and Chromium based browser, such as the aforementioned Vivaldi) that exhibit such issues.

Attached are the chrome://gpu output, as well as both the working (1xcurve) and not working (XYZLUT) DisplayCAL-generated profile, plus the profile generated using the default Spyder software, which, as mentioned above, exhibits the same issue.

When HW acceleration is disabled, we do no color management.

It sounds from #14 that the issue here is our handling of LUT-based color profiles.

Our ICC profile library currently does not support non-parametric color spaces (see issue 820233).
@ccameron

I'm assuming you are referring to Comment #14 as the original reported bug is using sRGB

Comment 17 Deleted

Comment 18 by hubbe@chromium.org, May 18 2018

I think this might be a driver bug and/or setting.
On this platform we use the DX11 video processor to conver the NV12 data before we return it to the browser. It's possible that we give the wrong parameters to the video processor I suppose.

Note, #14 is a separate issue and should be filed separately.

Same as issue 902550 I think, we should probably just disable color correction prior to Win10.
For those of you on Windows 7, do you still see this issue when Chrome is launched with --disable-features=video-blit-color-accuracy ?
I have windows 8.1, is that a similar comparison as it is pre-10?
Yeah, that's worth testing too. Thanks!
Aaaaaand, thats now my default launch option :)
Completely fixes it as per screencaps

Fix incorrect D3D11 color range configuration

Color range was being set incorrectly presumably due to a typo.

The above change may fix the issues with washout. I'll let you know which Chrome Canary version gets that commit. Once available, please test if the issue is fixed there _without_ disabling video-blit-color-accuracy.
Thank you, you are both a hero amongst men Dale :)

I will test as soon as its in a canary build
Labels: Needs-Feedback
As per comment# 4 & 8, unable to reproduce the issue from our end.

haydster7@ Could you please try to test this issue on latest chrome# 73.0.3644.0 and help us in verifying the fix.

Thanks!
Is that canary?
It is happening in the most recent version of Chrome for windows 70.0.3538.110
Yes the change above made it into Chrome Canary 73.0.3644.0, can you try that version? If it's still not fixed, also let me know if things are no longer fixed with --disable-features=video-blit-color-accuracy

Fix one more instance of incorrect color range.

Another incorrect usage of RGB_Range=1/LIMITED and 0-255 for the
nominal range.

This switches the code to use GetD3D11ColorSpace for consistency;
which may change some behaviors -- it sets matrix, rgb, and range
based on color_space instead of always using full range.

Per discussion with hubbe@ we're expecting this to make a direct
copy so it shouldn't affect anything, but that's an unverified
assumption.

Hi there, sorry it took me so long.
Results in Canary 73.0.3660.0 are identical to Chromes behaviour throughout this thread, that is:
 - No wash out when hardware acceleration is disabled
 - No wash out when --disable-features=video-blit-color-accuracy is used
 - All other times wash out occurs
Thanks, will try some other things. It's surprising you're not seeing wash out with the blit color accuracy disabled, another user is seeing washout with it disabled in issue 851216 -- though they are on Windows 7.
