When I updated Handbrake from 0.9.2 to 0.9.3, it began encoding everything way too dark. Every video I encoded before 0.9.3 looks great. And yes, my display is calibrated. I can play the DVD on the same display and it looks fine. When I play the Handbrake encoded file, it is way too dark. I'm using the exact same encode settings that I have always used.
Is there a solution for this? I've read several possible reasons why it could be doing this, but I've never found a solution. Any help would be great! My system specs and activity log are included below.
Thanks
