Sorry to reply to my own message. I found this message in the archive

It is about Xv settings, which can make video displayed via Xv look
dark. I tried twiddling with the settings, but they do not make a
difference in the rendered output of Cinelerra. This is what I would
expect, since I used mplayer to take a look at both the raw yuv stream
produced by png2yuv and the one by Cinelerra, and they look
different. Xv settings only affect display, not Cinelerra rendering,
right?

I'm guessing that the gamma for the rendered output is not quite right
for some reason.  The image is displayed right in the Cinelerra
compositor (= look the same as the still PNG original), but the
rendered output is dark. Mysteriously, if I read the rendered yuv file
back into Cinelerra, gamma/colours look ok in the compositor, even
though the same file looks dark in mplayer. Changing the Xv attributes
does not seem to affect the Cinelerra compositor window (playback
driver is set to X11-XV).
