COLOR PROBLEM10.1" Display & Audio 1280x800 IPS -

Post by efcowin »

I bought two of these monitors in May and I just got a third one(ordered June 29th) The color on this new one is washed out with very low contrast. No matter how I tweak the color in my editing program.
I would like these monitors to match...and I want the video to look good...rich color with good contrast.

Any suggestions?

I'll see if there's been some change in them.

I have a presentation of Friday. I was hoping that the monitors would "match". I hope you get back to me as soon as possible.
Thank you

can you post some photos of the LCD/TFT - both older and newer? on, off, part numbers, etc. would help!

I am not sure of the part number but here is the description:
1 x 10.1" Display & Audio 1280x800 IPS - HDMI/VGA/NTSC/PAL[ID:1694]

The order number is 1144407-0651513637

I have attached two files to this email. You can see the same video on both monitors

the displays we get are secondary market, sounds like they changed manufacturers. nothing we can do about it, we get whatever the supplier has and the displays we have now are all the same.
you can try using the little control board keyboard, there's an on screen display that you can use to tweak color settings. if you cannot use it, email support@adafruit to return - but a replacement would be the same so don't get a replacement!

That is too bad!! What is the control board keyboard? Is that another thing I have to buy. The monitor did not come with it.
