Weird colors on Acer Predator XB271HU

UltraVolta425

Hey

So I have an ASUS ROG Swift 27" 1440p on 144Hz on the left, and the ACER Predator XB271HU on the right.
As you can see in the screenshots here, I have issues with weird dark colors, where they ought to be much much lighter.

This is my telework application (it's basically a Windows 7 desktop remotely accessed via Citrix).
As you can see, due to these weird colors it's practically unreadable.


Now, here's a screenshot of the film The Adjustment Bureau on my favorite movie app: Cyberlink PowerDVD.
As you can see, due to these weird colors it's practically unwatchable.


However, if I watch it on my ASUS monitor, it shows just fine.


Or, if I use Media Player Classic with the same movie, on my ACER monitor, it SOMETIMES (not always) goes well as well.

Do you guys have any idea as to what this could be?

It looks to me like you just have a dark theme selected. Check in settings to see whether you have high contrast or some other thing selected.

No, that's not it.
If it were, ALL my apps would be in high contrast mode. As you can see, Media Player Classic has no issues, whereas PowerDVD does.
