Accessing the in monitor LUTs is currently out of scope for open source tools without signing a NDA. This could indeed bring a quality improvement. > In the end I'm not a professional...

For colour managed areas the graphic card LUTs usualy degrade quality, especially if a data source has to provide more than 8-bits per channel. kind regards Kai-Uwe Behrmann -- developing for colour management www.behrmann.name + www.oyranos.org
