hi ok, hmm pitty.. Isn't it possible to 'device-link' the webcam profile and the monitor profile and then load the monitor profile into the color managed window manager?
I just mentioned the device-link profile type for completeness' sake. For the intended use, it won't make a difference. That being said, I don't know if one can specify the source profile for the window manager to use for not-color-managed content. The monitor profile will be used regardless.
josNo, it won't work. The calibration alone is not enough to get the colors "right". And as the webcam app is not color-managed as you said, it will not be able to use a profile anyway, so even trying to create a profile that describes the behavior of both devices is moot.> Sounds adventurous :) You need a color-managed webcam software and > distinct profiles for camera anord monitor (or a device-link, and a way to > apply it). > > Another option that you could try is using a color-managed > window-manager (together with a display profile) which assumes sRGB for > all non-color-managed sources, and then hope that what comes out of the > webcam software is reasonably close to sRGB.
