Added a workaround in the description, and updated the title so it shows up when people try to report this very bug.
** Description changed: + ==WORKAROUND== + + Using Totem (Ubuntu's default video player) : + + 1. open totem via Applications > Sound & Video > Movie Player + 2. open the preferences window via Edit > Preferences + 3. select the Display tab + 4. click the Reset to Defaults button + + ============ + opening movies makes them look blueish due to the fact that nvidia settings have HUE set to -1000 the user can manually fix that, by setting to zero, but the next time a movie is opened it will re-set to -1000 ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Sat Jul 4 11:44:00 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 MachineType: To Be Filled By O.E.M.
