Latest Update Turns My Screen Green [Dolby Vision]

So, since the latest update Dolby Vision seems to be now forced on for me. Even though it is not ticked in the settings, it still forces it. It turns everything on my screen green. Then if I go into the settings, I turn it on and back off it fixes it. However, when running certain games, it launches with Dolby Vision activated. It's really annoying. When I restart my PC, it kicks back on too and everything goes back green.

Anyone else have this issue?

    I also have Win11, on an LG C2 and an Nvidia RTX 3080 (all on latest updates).

    I am having the same issue. All the suggested fixes only help temporarily:

    The moment my computer goes to sleep, and I wake it back up, Dolby Vision is turned back on (although that is not actually reflected in the UI, where DV still appears as "turned off").

    After every wake or boot, I have to go back into the settings. What is strange however, is that simply opening the settings menu restores everything to normal.

    It's as if Windows forgets that DV is off, and the moment it actually has to check the settings to show them on screen in menu, it realizes "Oh yeah, DV is actually turned off, sorry about that" and it switches back. It's extremely annoying.

    I do not want to permanently turn off features like HDR or hardware-acceleration for my current setup, otherwise, why did I even buy an LG C2 and a 3080? The features or the components are obviously not the issue. This has worked perfectly fine in the past, so no reason to break it now.

    OK the "fix" for me appears to be to set the output dynamic range to "limited" in nvidia system settings/displays/colour

    Yep, this one works for me so far. Changing it from Full to Limited. Nice catch.

    It will do for now until we get an update to fix this forced Dolby Vision issue.

    Hi Speeds,

    The HUE slider on mine is already at 0. So, it still affects me. I can resolve by ticking the 'Dolby Vision' box and then unticking the box. It's just a pain to keep doing it all the time.

    The best workaround I found to fix it is this:

    Windows side: make sure Dolby Vision is disabled under the HDR settings in display settings. There is an arrow next the HDR toggle to expand it.

    TV side: All setting -> General -> External Devices -> HDMI Settings -> 4:4:4 Passthrough. Enable this.

    It fixed my problem and HDR and G-sync work great, no more green screens or weird brightness glitches.

    Hope that helps

    Same here.

    LG C2 OLED + RTX 4080

    Screen turns green and pink. Have to enable and disable DV to back to normal.

    Other option that I found is reduce the color range in NVIDIA Control panel from 'FULL' to 'LIMITED'.

    Nvidia Control Panel -> Resolution -> 3. configurations ... -> Use NVIDIA Color Configuration -> Dynamic output: LIMITED.

    It makes the video output not DV compliant, disabling it...

    RGB - 10bpp - Limited
