Color shift when GPU acceleration is ON in lightroom develop mode - windows system

Hi all,

Just build a pc with new Nvidia GTX4060 Ti card, mainly for photo/video editing.

Unfoirtunatley, using Adobe Lightroom with GPU acceleration shifts colors in develope module. When I disable GPU, colors look normal. I do want to have accaleration ON as the lightroom is quite faster. Anyone had similar issue? Graphics drivers are up to date.
I was playing with some monitor color profiles but that has not changed anything.

I heard Nvidia cards are better supported with Adobe products but now I am not entierly convinced...

Please help.

Thanks!

Thank you for your help! it was the monitor default color profile affecting library view colors. Setting sRGB IE61966-2.1 default profile elimanted color shift betwen modes and with GPU accelaration ON/OFF.

I am going to use default sRGB profile for now but will be looking to get spyderx for calibration. Thanks again!!!!

yes, i set both monitors to default, restart the pc and the green gone

i tried this out, and yes it was the color managment.
I set it on both monitors to default. Restart the PC and everything is allright

Same here. It started all of a sudden—everything was fine before that.
Now it’s like this: the image previews in the library look normal, but as soon as I switch to Develop in Lightroom, every photo gets a green tint.
If I try editing them in Photoshop, the green cast is still there.

In Lightroom, it only helps if I go into Preferences and turn off "Use Graphics Processor"—but that makes the program noticeably slower.

That really can’t be the solution.

Hello,

I noticed that color shifts between library and develop modules in Lightroom. When I open the image from LR in Photoshop, it also looks different than a develop module (same as a library). In PS, when I use cameraRAW, it seems like developer module (so again different than native PS).

When I disable GPU acceleration in LR, this goes away. My GPU is Radeon RX7800XT. I thought the problem was in GPU, but since the person in this post had the same problem, but a different GPU. I don't think it is the GPU. Post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/color-shift-when-gpu-acceleration-is-on-in-lightroom-develop-mode-windows-system/td-p/14405099

I have a Dell U2723QE display, which supposedly is factory-calibrated to high standards. I am using Win11, and have the latest update of the LR. The display is set to sRGB color profile. Any ideas?

I read that a supposedly corrupted color profile could be responsible. But I do not see how, since with the same color profile there is a color shift or not, depending on the activation of GPU acceleration.

Hi das eles,

Did you solve the problem?

I have the same one. My GPU is Radeon RX7800XT and once I disable GPU acceleration in LR, there is no difference anymore between develop and library modules. I thought the problem was in GPU, but since you have a different one, this is not it.

Update your graphics driver with AMD's latest version:

If that doesn't help, please copy/paste here the entire contents of the LR menu command Help > System Info -- that will let us see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running.

Additionally inquiry

~~Is your monitor calibration up to date?~~

~~and:~~

Ok, I missed this part in your post:

"I was playing with some monitor color profiles but that has not changed anything. "

Are you using dual monitors? And is the color shift occurring on the 2nd monitor? Is that monitor calibrated?

Thank you for your help. This is the system info from Lightroom. I cannot see anything unusual from it. I have been in contact with Nvidia, they suggested some diffrent drivers. Unfortunetly no luck so far.

Color profiles was mentioned by few people, so will order datacolor spyderx pro to get fresh calibration. If that does not help I will be running out of solutions.

Possibly, will look into trying different GPU/monitor (I am not using dual monitors yet so have no comparison).

Thanks!

It was caused by corrupted monitor profile, thanks for directing me into the solutions!

Are you perhaps using the HDR (display) treatment option as opposed to standard?

Color shift present in both options.

Next troubleshooting steps to narrow down the issue:

1. Compare Develop with Library Loupe view at 100% (View > Loupe, then View > Zoom To 100%). Do you still see the shift?

2. Follow these precise steps for testing whether the current color profile assigned to your display is incompatible with the GPU:

https://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-do-i-change-my-monitor-profile-to-check-whether-its-corrupted/

Still see the shift?
