Windows 10 gradients not displaying properly

I have a Surface Book, hooked up to a Surface Dock, going to a Dell Ultra HD 4K Monitor P2415Q.

 

I've noticed recently, though I can't pinpoint exactly when it started, that gradients on the external display don't transition properly. On the Surface Book display they are good. Like I'm missing colors or something? I've attached a photo.

 

I've tried downloading the color profile for this monitor with no change.

 

The only other thing I can think of is it's Windows 10 Insider (fast, currently on the latest?) but again.. this may have started before that. I also tried upgrading my Surface Pro 3 to that build, plugged it into the dock and it displays fine. So I have eliminated that its an issue with the monitor or Surface Dock, and possibly the 1809 beta.

 

Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you!

- Check colour depth setting in Windows.
- Try changing the format of the file to 16 bit if it already isn't.

- Try adding 2-4% noise filter, then do a single blur filter, this can on occasion fix bad gradients.

 

Other than that, it could just be that this is the best the display can manage...

    • Wikipedia suffers backlash from human editors over AI summaries, prompting feature pause

      By samw61 · Posted

      A summary of the article shouldn't be an issue in theory, as the information is all based within the document itself. The problem with a lot of AI models is that they are trained off both Wikipedia as a primary source and other secondary websites which have less reliable information. As an encyclopaedia it is no doubt going to have bias in one way or another, all encyclopaedias do. The difference is that there is a process for a lot of this information to be figured out whether or not it is an opinion, or the source of that information, and to be aware of the possible bias in the first place, even your own bias as a reader. The way many people understand languages these days is quite limited, particularly in certain areas of the world. This is obvious in many types of "journalism" where some articles are thinly disguised opinion pieces, Where language is carefully curated to push a point of view despite it looking like fact. This is partly why a lot of the Western world is now so divided.
    • Clipchamp now lets you trim videos by cutting out transcripts

      I paid for a year subscription, starting in December, I think. I like the user-friendliness and assets like royalty-free music and sounds. But they need to fix some of the horrific bugs before they start adding more features. For starters, you should be able to drag stuff around the timeline without it completely obliterating transitions, synchronization timing, and clip lengths. If you already set up footage and audio how you want, and try to insert more by sliding content to the right, you'll have to clean it all up again. The scroll wheel constantly stops working, and you have to minimize the window and restore it to get it back. When selecting text at the top right in special text tools, it glitches and goes to "copy" mode with a weird pop-up on top of your cursor and you can't type. These are more important than AI tools and new features. Microsoft, start by making your product less painful to use.
