Hello. I upgraded my old laptop with ssd drive and installed windows 10. I installed k-lite codec pack, (full) including media player classic. The video files I play from media player classic appear too dark (Screenshot attached). When I play the same video from VLC players, it plays fine and looks brightly lit (screenshot attached).

This has never happened before. Please help.

g'day and welcome to the forums.

I've never got why people use k-lite when there are plenty of others, like VLC and PotPlayer, that do a better job.

is there a reason you have your heart set on k-lite and WMP?

Hello. Haha, no, there is no particular reason except for good experience over the years. On another forum called computer juice, someone introduced me to K-Lite Codec Pack in 2008. I have been using it ever since then with good experience . Besides VLC, I havent heard of Potplayer - i will check it out .
