Redish tones on the lower levels

[nowhereman87]

Vitabright 2.0 / Vitabright-2.0b4
PSVita 1010 model

Using the table (vitabright_lut.txt) included in the new release all the dark steps look very reddish on my Vita 1010. Also bright parts of the image looks somehow "burned" on white tone, I guess because of excesive contrast.

Tried to screenshot but the snaps shows the tones just fine.

I have tried other lut.txt shared a by redditor lasemanz here https://www.reddit.com/r/vitahacks/comments/swpt62/mod_vita_brightness_tweaked/?sort=top, which looks a lot more natural but on the contrary very bluish.

Hello there, I have just read your issue, and I am the person who rebuilt that vitabright_lut.txt.

I am beginning to think that maybe my oled screen is a little less worn than yours is. How much have you used your vita?

I agree that lowering the contrast would help with the redness. But this would also make everything look more green compared to the ambient light in your room for example. Because the oled vita screen has a problem with everything going green at low brightnesses. So it's a balance.

@buzeak There are 3 different OLED models. They may have different LUT tables in which case we'll need to build a different one for each.

Here is @buzeak's version:

LUTs are different for type 4 and type 5 screens. Courtesy of @SKGleba here are the different tables.

@buzeak Do you think you could build LUTs for these two OLED screen models? I suppose you'd need to get your hand on PS Vita with a type 4 OLED screen and another one with a type 5 OLED screen.

[buzeak]

My brother has a oled vita, so I could make and open a log file on his, but how would I know if it is a type 4 or 5?

And I may be able to guess and share.

[devnoname120]

@buzeak 0x0804 is type 4, and 0x0805 is type 5.

I wanted to report that this table (v15) provided by u/lasemanz has finally worked fine on my PSVita:
Vita Bright Tweaked v15.zip

There is also another one (v18), that has additional darker levels which I find useful on certain occasions, although it shows more reddish tones, and so I prefer the V15.

Thanks to everyone helping !

@nowhereman87 Thanks! I'll include it in the next release.

I have the 05 OLED vita and have the same red tint. I noticed using v15 there is a blue tint but using the default one is very very red. I will also use the v15 one for now as it works well. I think it might need tweaking to the blues though.

Quick edit. After playing a few games the blue tint is pretty heavy. I'm going to stick with the 0.01 edition that only includes the super dim version on low level.

I think the table really needs some yellow it's as if it's more cool.

I also tried the 1.2 mod version. It works... Fine. It has pretty steep jumps but does work okay.

Apologies if this sounds entitled. Not my intention. I appreciate the work going into this.

Another edit. After going through the different lut files that are posted I actually really enjoy the improved table that was posted. Version 3 is exactly what I was looking for. I think going forward that one should be used for OLED, at least v5.

Last edit: Man idk. Maybe it's my screen or it's just me but I tried every lut table and there's something off. Either they are too red or too blue. I tried version 19 of the Reddit post one and it's too blue. I tried 15 and it's too red. I tried out the improved one for a bit but I noticed going through the different low levels and the colors are way off. There's also severe color banding. Colors bleed into each other. I tried the ones with custom amber tones and those worked okay but I don't think having flux levels is the move for the lower levels.

Honestly the only way I could see the oled being configured properly is using something like an xrite. I think because of the way the gamma and brightness work on the Vita it requires color accuracy tuning at every step.

The V15 version worked almost perfectly for mine. The colors are pretty much balanced and the obnoxious red tint is no more.

However, a few lower brightness levels for me are still a tiny bit blue-tinted so I adjusted them ever so slightly.
I added my own lowest brightness setting as well and swapped out the brightest setting in V15 since I mainly use mine inside or during nighttime.

@buzeak Can you review this table? 🙏
I'm super interested in your feedback because you're the LUT expert. Do you think it's better than yours or not?

[buzeak]

@devnoname120 Sorry, my vita is not working at the moment. But I can assure you that my LUT was very close to absolute perfection on my vita.
