    It’s not a bug. Check madVR configuration and you’ll see.

    madVR disables GPU LUT (so it can do its stuff including LUT3D using shaders with dithering, removing the banding issues in nvidias and intels). There is a check box in calibration config in madVR.

    It is disabled because that app may clean GPU LUTs. It happend woth other software that do the same, Maybe there is a blacklist in DisplayCAl executable. I did not check.
    Anyway… instead of using VCGT in madVR, use LUT3D. It will avoid  banidng on nvidias and intel GPUs.

    ok …i guess still doesnt resolve the current issue im having , that being the color profile autoloader is greyed out …meaning not active and when i right click …menu shows autoloading/autoforcing profile disabled…no amount of uninstalling and reinstalling fixes this…its odd, hope this can be fixed with an update or such

    Again this isn’t a bug it’s entirely intentional behavior from DisplayCAL.  There is an internal list of applications that DisplayCAL has that it will disable profile vlut loading because it cause issues.  I don’t know if there is a way to view or edit that list. There is a way to add your own exclusions though.

    In the case of MadVR it’s because MadVR can do it’s own color corrections via a 3dlut and having other corrections loaded into the vlut would cause what is displayed to be inaccurate.

    While it’s not mandatory for MadVR to have a 3dlut loaded I think DisplayCAL assumes that if you have it and MadVR installed that you’ve also made a 3dlut for MadVR and that it should disable profile loading while MadVR is running.

    Unless you don’t actually have a measurement device you should just make a 3dlut for MadVR in DisplayCAL and stop worrying about ICC profile vlut loading being disabled when MadVR is running since that is the best way for it to work.

    If you have some unusual situation or workflow that requires ICC profile vlut loading while watching videos with MadVR you better explain what that is so someone can maybe help you work around it.

    Or you can use “enable windowed overlay” in madvr if you have nvidia card.
