Previously in shadows and dark scenes there is a colour cast which varies from recording to recording in it's colour and severity, the display (a DLP projector) is calibrated to reduce this but it varies so still shows up some of the time. Set display mode to YUV and immediately shadows are as they should be, detail in shadows is clear and the correct colour :-))

Did you ever try the VDPAU colorspace and studio levels filter?

You would have achieved the same results with earlier nvidia drivers.
