DisplayCAL — Калибровка монитора
Программа для калибровки монитора с акцентом на точность и универсальность, который использует ArgyllCMS, передовую систему управления цветом с открытым исходным кодом, для выполнения измерений, создания калибровок и профилей, а также для множества других сложных задач, связанных с цветом. Переведена на русский язык .
Предыдущее название программы dispcalGUI, который по сути является интерфейсом к системе управления цветом Argyll, предназначенный для упрощения взаимодействия с пользователем.
Все функциональные возможности хорошо организованы и структурированы, при этом они довольно четко расположены в виде меню и вкладок.
Эти две программ отлично сочетаются, специалисты заметят, что при работе интерфейса никакие функциональные возможности не были потеряны.
После запуска графического интерфейса автоматически определяются устройства отображения и инструменты (это можно отключить в меню «Опции»). Пользователи могут создавать профили калибровки или выбирать их из списка предопределенных настроек (например, для мониторов портативных компьютеров).
Одна из замечательных особенностей этого симбиоза заключается в том, что DisplayCAL не накладывает ограничений, предоставляемой Argyll CMS. Хотя настройки по умолчанию загружают почти во все поля, эти предпочтения полностью настраиваемы.
Пользователи наверняка заметят, что все раскрывающиеся меню позволяют вносить изменения и, где это применимо, могут быть определены новые элементы. Действительно, пользователи могут даже создать собственный профиль.
Другие настраиваемые параметры включают уровень белого, кривую тона и скорость калибровки. Фактические тестовые диаграммы, которые будут использоваться в симуляциях, также можно редактировать, а новые можно создавать с нуля. Это позволяет точно контролировать количество белых, нейтральных и повторяющихся пятен.

DisplayCAL (formerly known as dispcalGUI) is a display calibration and profiling solution with a focus on accuracy and versatility (in fact, the author is of the honest opinion it may be the most accurate and versatile ICC compatible display profiling solution available anywhere). At its core, it relies on ArgyllCMS, an advanced open-source color management system, to take measurements, create calibrations and profiles, and for a variety of other advanced color related tasks.
Calibrate and characterize your display devices using one of many supported measurement instruments, with support for multi-display setups and a variety of available options for advanced users, such as verification and reporting functionality to evaluate ICC profiles and display devices, creating video 3D LUTs, as well as optional CIECAM02 gamut mapping to take into account varying viewing conditions. Other features include:
- Support of colorimeter corrections for different display device types to increase the absolute accuracy of colorimeters. Corrections can be imported from vendor software or created from measurements if a spectrometer is available.
- Check display device uniformity via measurements.
- Test chart editor: Create charts with any amount and composition of color patches, easy copy & paste from CGATS, CSV files (only tab-delimited), and spreadsheet applications, for profile verification and evaluation.
- Create synthetic ICC profiles with custom primaries, white- and black point as well as tone response for use as working spaces or source profiles in device linking (3D LUT) transforms.

I am having a problem where the profile loader says “Calibration curves could not be loaded”

No videoLUT access. You may need to update your graphics driver.
I am having a problem where the profile loader says “Calibration curves could not be loaded”
I was having the same issue after installing windows update 1903 on my laptop with integrated graphics but saw someone mention to try disabling “fast startup” which worked for me. A restart of the system would work fine but turning it on from shutdown it wouldn’t work as it wasn’t truly shutdown (link on how to disable it). It only takes a minute to give it a go, and just put it back worst case.
Can confirm the issue on Windows 10 1903 Build 18362.116 and an Nvidia 1070 on DCH driver ver. 430.86, which is the most current.
Sporadically, after a reboot, the Profile Loader shows a minus sign in its tray icon. Clicking “Reset video card gamma table” yields
in the log window, among other VideoLUT-related errors:

kamikatze13 .Make sure you have all the latest Windows updates installed, especially KB4497935 (v1903 build number should be 18362.145).
I will have a look at the fast startup but I have noticed when I first start windows it works then it stops then if I re-start it works again
I have the latest windows update and latest video driver
indeed, KB4497935 was available, even though the system has been freshly installed 3 days ago and windows update was manually checked for updates multiple times before.
anyways, it did not resolve the issue. Build 18362.145 and have a minus sign in the profile loader after a shutdown->start sequence.
powercfg -h off seems to alleviate the issue (by disabling both hibernation and fast startup), though.

I have disabled the fast start so see how it goes
I’ll report back
OK disabling the fast start seems to have worked for me at the moment. Early days but all seems good

Thank you very much – Very much appreciate your help
Disabling the fast start does not seem to make the startup any slower. I think with an SSD drive its fast enough anyway

… same problem with AMD card, latest driver and Win 1903 buil date 8.6.2019.
i did not have fast start enabled.
Hi… I do have same issue with an Intel HD Graphics 520. Used to work fine, but had to reinstall windows, and now I can not install the profile.. I get the same errors… I have Windows 10 May Update with build 18362.175… I tried disabling fast start and did not work… any suggestion is welcomed… Thanks!

Having a similar issue here. I have tried disabling everything from startup and also disabling fast boot/hibernate but no joy.
DisplayCAL is now just a grey icon in the task bar and when clicked I am shown the ‘Calibration Loading Disabled’ message.
I’m running Windows 10 OS build 18362.175. Latest GPU drivers (Nvidia 1080Ti).
The issue appears to be a little random, it was working fine yesterday but today after numerous shut downs and restarts I can’t seem to get it to kick in.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Since disabling the fast start-up I have had no more problems and it all works as it should
Hope it stays that way – * Fingers Crossed*

Did you just disable this under:

#11913 (Bug) Profile loader reloads profiles every few seconds under Windows 10 April update
Last modified 3 years ago
I just updated to the Windows 10 April update (Windows 10 Pro 10.0.17134). Since updating, I am seeing DisplayCAL’s profile loader update my monitor calibration roughly every fifteen seconds. (I just let it run for four minutes and it told me “calibration state was (re)applied 17 times today” when I clicked it.) I have been getting similar reapplication rates since I updated, and I see the little icon spin.
These appear to be reloads due to false positives in the change detection, as when I disable “preserve calibration state” or quit the profile loader, the monitor’s calibration stays perfectly fine—unless I run an application that resets the profile. I don’t believe I have any other applications that would be modifying the profile (unless Microsoft is doing something silly in the new version of Windows). The fact that my calibration persists when the profile loader is disabled seems to suggest that these are some form of false positives.
Unfortunately, this seems to be causing a significant issue and not just wasting a few CPU cycles: when the profile loader is active, my displayed image has been occasionally flashing to the identity ramp for a short time (a single display refresh, I suspect). This has happened at the same time I’ve seen the profile-reload animation. Disabling the profile loader seems to have stopped this behavior as well. I’m not intimately familiar with Windows display drivers, but my suspicion is that when the profile loader tells Windows to install the display profile, the ramps get momentarily reset to the default color ramp by either Windows or the Nvidia driver, and that this intermediate state is only ever drawn to screen if it happens to overlap the moment when a display refresh begins. This hypothesis fits the observation that the profile is gets updated several times per minute but I’ve only seen the identity-ramp refreshes a few times per hour. (This has been intermittent so I will update the ticket if I see anything that conflicts with this hypothesis.)
I was running DisplayCAL 3.5.2 initially, but I upgraded to 3.5.3 and am seeing this behavior. (I didn’t check the reset rate on 3.5.2, so I’m not positive as to whether the behavior was identical before the update to 3.5.3.) I’ve attached my logs directory, though the logs don’t seem to include the timing and reasons for profile installation. I’d be happy to collect more information if it would be helpful. I have tried rebooting, restarting Profile Loader, and reinstalling the profile.
I’ll rig something up with AutoHotKey so I can manage without the profile loader for a few days, but I’d love to see this fixed. Thanks in advance!

You can turn the animation off in the tray icon popup menu if you find it distracting.
Thanks @Florian: I did see the option to turn off the animation, so that isn’t a problem for me. The real issue that’s led me to turn off the profile loader for now is the transient flipping to an uncalibrated state I mentioned; otherwise I’d just leave it running and hide the animation.
As I said, let me know if there’s any other information I can provide that would help. If you want something like a dxdiag dump, I’d rather send that by email since it has more detailed information about my computer.
If there’s something like flashing or similar visual glitches going on, then that has to be caused by some other circumstances because the profile loader just straight sets the videoLUT to the calibrated values without first clearing the latter. Graphics driver bug maybe? I have an nVidia 1070 with the 391.35 driver, which shows no such issues under my (up-to-date) Win10. I haven’t yet installed the latest nVidia driver.
Yes, as I said, there’s flashing to the uncalibrated state and back something like 1% of the time when it resets the profile. This wouldn’t be a problem if it weren’t resetting the profile every fifteen seconds.
There’s nothing I can do about that though. You’ll have to figure out what is going on on your system. The Windows event log may be a place to start, look for graphics driver related entries.
Is the expected behavior of the profile loader is it should set the profile every fifteen seconds even if it’s already set to the correct profile? I don’t remember it doing that in the past.
From the very first version, it re-applied the calibration every three seconds. I later changed that to re-apply calibration when a change in running processes is detected (and since then, it also counted these implicit re-applications of calibration states in addition to manual, explicit reloads), so the frequency is now lower than it was initially (depending on how rapidly you open/close applications or system services are started/stopped), but it can’t go faster than every three seconds. It doesn’t do anything to the profile associations (other than making sure the correct profile gets set when disabling a display in a multi-display configuration when “Automatically fix profile associations” is enabled).
Thanks for the clarification: I agree that, in that case, this is working as intended and not your bug. Thanks for the assistance.
Hi everbody, I was looking on the web about this “issue”.
I have the same behaviour on my laptop, MS Surface Book.
Before April Update the laptop screen was keeping the calibration profile loaded.
Now during normal usage I can notice the profile gets unloaded and then reloaded after some seconds.
This happens randomly.
Now I’m on 391.95 Nvidia driver, I’ll try to update the GPU driver with the latest.
@Andre84RG my solution was to disable DisplayCAL’s profile loader and build a profile loader of my own using AutoHotKey.
Hi, good to know you’ve found a workaround.
Actually I prefer DisplayCal profiler loader working as before.
I dont know what’s causing this, but we both had the same issue so it isn’t a single case.
