Correct one:

With mpv:

With mpv fullscreen:

Expected Behavior

Correct colors.

Actual Behavior

Weird colors.

Log File

output.txt

Sample Files

No response

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:

• I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
• I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
• I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of --log-file=output.txt.
• I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
• I attached the full, untruncated log file.
• I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Start by reproducing the color difference between mpv 0.40.0 and 0.41.0 on the reported Arch Linux, Mesa, AMD GPU, and Hyprland setup. Read the attached output.txt and compare windowed and fullscreen behavior to identify which rendering or color-handling area changed. Done means restoring the expected colors without regressing either display mode.
