Color Calibration Spyder 4 Problems with CO
Hi,
I have hard times getting the correct colors in CO.
I calibrated my Monitor/Windows 10 with Spyder 4, colors look way "better" in Windows.
When viewing/editing RAW's in CO I never ever get the same colors as in any other Raw Converter I used/tried. I dont mean slight changes, these are expected, but really other colors in terms of saturation and so on.
The Proof is set to match the Export Recipe, this is set to sRGB.
But the strange things are happening after the export: exporting with sRGB I get other colors as CO shows me (and the Proof doesnt change anything).
The colors are read as sRGB and are all getting a yellow touch and are a little more contrasty in any Viewer.
IF I embedd the Spyder Profil in the Export, then I can get the exact same colors in Picture Viewers which are not using the embedded profiles (for example: XnView or Faststone Viewer).
As I said I really dont know what the problem is: other Raw Converter's start with the sRGB Profile (which is overlayed by Windows and Spyder Software Calibration) and export it - all looks fine and as intended.
CO is the only Converter which seems to have problems right from the start.
I tried to deactivate the Spyder Profile in Windows, worked with CO as usual and the colors in CO match with the exported one's.
But as soon as I overlay the correction, CO gets confused or so?!
Many thanks in advance!

Did you choose the right color profile under
View > Proof Profile?0 -
Yes, I do.
Usually I set it to "Selected Recipe" - and click on my Jpeg Output Recipe which is set to "sRGB IEC61966-2.1"
The strange thing is, it doesnt matter which Color Profile under "sRGB" I use, all look the same in CO, even with Proof activated. If I then export, lets say with ProPhoto, the exported file has the Prophoto colors. (Not the one's CO shows me in the viewer)
Only Proof Profile's under "CMYK" change the color drastically - but this is something I dont have any experience with.
The big question for me is: what is going wrong in CO with my Color Calibration - several other Raw Converter are showing and exporting my RAW's "correct" - the exported file is what I see in these other Converters.
CO seems to start at a wrong point or something. Or it uses the Spyder Profile as a start, but this is obvisously only a corrected Profile and not a "full profile"?!
Iam not unexperienced with CO but simply cannot sort the problem out.
Any help is appreciated.0 -
I dug down deep in that exact same rabbit hole and had to walk away for the sake of my sanity.
Long story short, I eventually got Photoshop to scramble the colour output by cycling calibration profiles back and forth dozens of times, and out of nowhere it started displaying what I saw in CO to the measure.
Capture One remained consistent throughout, so I gave up.
Not sure I want to revisit it.....
I use DisplayCal with an i1Dysplay Pro on Windows 10

Thank you for answering gusferlizi.
Your pictures have a very similar "color touch" like that what i'm experiencing with mine.
I didn't found any solution up to now, tried everything I could, even on completely different machines (Win7/Win10 64Bit).
Interestingly enough the "old" Windows picture Viewer shows the pictures with the right color as seen in CO, but not the new one. (also nearly every Browser only shows the "wrong" sRGB) But this topic can be Googled and exists for years now.
I'm just guessing here that CO starts at a false point with ICC profiles (and why doesnt change the colors no matter what iam using under sRGB Proof but for everything under CMYK?)
It seems the only good solution is to buy a factory calibrated monitor and get used with it 🤭0
