video playback colour saturation

After I upgraded to 0.25 (and Ubuntu precise), the colour of video
played within myth is oversaturated to the point of being unwatchable.
This happens with both recordings and videos played with the internal
player. If I play with mplayer (either through myth or outside
entirely), things look fine.

Are there colour settings somewhere for the internal player? Anything
else I should check?

Upgrade to most-current 0.25-fixes ( http://www.mythbuntu.org/repos ),
and if that doesn't help, hit F (one or more times) during playback to
adjust the appropriate color controls (hue, saturation, brightness, ...)

The 0.25-fixes update did the trick. Thanks a million.
