Digital Vibrance
Note:
The
Digital
Vibrance
Control
(DVC)
feature
supported
by
the
GeForce2
MX
and
newer
series
of
NVIDIA
GPUs.
DVC
,
a
mechanism
for
controlling
color
separation
and
intensity,
boosts
the
color
saturation
of
an
image
so
that
all
images
—
including
2D,
3D,
and
video
—
appear
brighter
and
crisper
(even
on
flat
panels)
in
your
applications.
Digital
Vibrance
can
be
turned
off
or
set
to
different
levels
from
low
to
high
as
shown
in
.
Brightness, Contrast, and Gamma
Note:
The
Color
profile
option
on
this
page
must
be
set
to
Standard
Mode
in
order
to
use
the
Brightness
,
Contrast
,
and
Gamma
sliders.
To
adjust
the
Brightness
,
Contrast
,
or
Gamma
values
for
the
selected
color
channel,
click
and
move
the
sliders
until
you
see
the
desired
adjustment.
Notice
that
the
color
curve
graph
changes
as
you
adjust
values
using
these
sliders,
which
also
reflects
in
the
values
of
the
Input
and
Output
boxes
displayed
on
the
left
of
the
Gamma
slider.
Adjusting
brightness,
contrast,
and
gamma
values
helps
you
compensate
for
variations
in
luminance
between
a
source
image
and
its
output
on
a
display.
This
is
useful
when
working
with
image
processing
applications
to
help
provide
more
accurate
color
reproduction
of
images
(such
as
photographs)
when
they
are
displayed
on
your
screen.
Also,
many
3D
‐
accelerated
games
may
appear
too
dark
to
play.
Increasing
the
brightness
and/or
gamma
value
equally
across
all
channels
will
make
these
games
appear
brighter,
making
them
more
playable.
