Fair enough. However, the problem and the fix dated from 2005 - and I thought
that the problem would have been fixed since then. After all, *every* other
setting is at 50% - except Hue, which was zero.
As an aside, I know that traditionally TV users on that side of the pond needed
to twiddle a "hue" control with NTSC, dunno if it's still the same nowadays.
Over here in PAL land, we just don't need to so TVs have never had a "hue"
control. Perhaps that's why I assumed it was some kind of more esoteric
configuration error.
