Asus mb169+ working profile
Here is a new and improved icc profile for the mb169b+ continued from this thread: http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64614
It fixes the light colours that clipped in the old version. I compressed the colour space to fit within the gamut of the monitor, and the highlight detail should be much improved. [New link jun 29 -17] https://www.odrive.com/s/6eb27b45-23...a45a4-58cc828f If you find this useful, or have a better profile, please comment in this thread. If you want to contribute, please make a donation here: http://displaycal.net/#donate That is the software I used to make the profile, and Florian Höch of DisplayCal helped me with the compression of the colour gamut.

I have made a new profile that is slightly better than the last one, but most importantly doesn't cause trouble with Photoshop.
As far as gamut goes, this monitor can only do about 50% of sRGB, which isn't very good. Mostly it's fine, but it simply can't show very vivid colours. (The coulours it can show are vivid enough though, it's just that it can't do neon type coulours.) This makes it hard to profile, and I think this is about as good as it gets. For anyone thinking about buying this monitor, I say go ahead as long as you use this profile: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13589645/mb169.zip Last edited by stfm; 07-31-2016 at 09:57 PM. |

Another thank you
Also wanted to thank you for putting this profile together - works much better than the default profile!
Also, the new link you posted does work. |

Thanks, yes the people at Asus must be idiots. I really like the screen, but with the factory profile it's horrible.

Could you post this link again please? I've been searching everywhere to fix this horrible contrast issue and this is the first solution i've seen. Thanks :P

Maybe a moderator could be so kind to host a copy of the profile on-site?
