Hi there,
It’s my first time using DisplayCAL. After calibration, which is looking neat, I’m having trouble with Adobe Bridge and Photoshop. They’re displaying my pictures with a wrong/distorted profile.
This is how it looks like in Bridge: http://imgur.com/jXWhGL2
Photoshop (same thing, also in Camera RAW): http://imgur.com/ZSSrkjH
And the original pic: http://imgur.com/Wm6lZcO
Any hints would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi, Florian, thanks for your quick answer.
I’m using a Pantone Huey Pro -I always used it’s old software, which is pretty buggy, and just switched to DisplayCAL- on a Dell UltraSharp UP3216Q IPS 31.5″.
I attached the .icm file to this post.
Looking at the measurements, some of the values are clearly garbage (e.g. some greens measured as red, some blues measured as cyans), and the profile as well as a result. You may want to check if your Huey still measures properly with the vendor software, but my impression is that the instrument has reached its end-of-life, probably due to age-related deterioration of its gelatine filters.
Edit: Looking at it again, it may also have happened that something (a popup window? the mouse cursor?) may have been in front of the measurement window while the device was taking measurements, and thus botched the result. Try re-doing the profile making sure that no direct light falls on the screen, the lighting stays consistent, and nothing interferes with the measurement window.
The thing is that, apart from Bridge/Camera Raw/Photoshop, the calibration looks good, better than with Pantone’s software. Something funny is that when Bridge makes the thumbnails for a folder, at first they look good but then seems like it loads another profile and makes this mess.
I’ll try calibrating again as you say and see what happens, thanks for your help.
