      I recently upgraded my retropie setup from Jessie to Stretch. Basically everything works fine yet i noticed that the majority of my video snaps for the games inside of emulationstation have a blue tint for various areas in allmost all of the videos.

      I.e.: Skin tones are now all blue and different other colors also seem to be swapped around. I checked the source files and they play correctly on my PC and they also look correctly on my Jessie backup of Retropie.

      Anyone encountered this and know how to fix this? Is it possibly a driver or a package i need to reinstall under stretch to fix this?

      Cheers

        @Freakadude It's a bug in a recent version of VLC. You can switch to using omxplayer (the hardware accelerated video player) until this bug is fixed.

            @Freakadude From the Emulationstation main menu, look under the Other Settings.
