Foveon Reds Problem....SOLVED!?
2

Hey guys.

Been playing with older versions of the SD1M firmware and older versions of SPP and discovered this. SPP 4.2 on the left renders Foveon Reds....CORRECTLY! ....but also crashes upon opening any .XF3 file for me with a message "'Processing error."

Latest version of SPP (screen right in both examples) de-saturates reds & oranges and moves them falsely towards yellow in a hue shift.

Is there a way to get SPP 4.2 or earlier to run on a windows 10 machine and not crash when opening files? Because I like the color a whole lot better. Running firmware 1.03 on the camera. Thought downgrading that to an older version would help. 1.03 was the earliest i could find. But my XF3 files won't open in anything earlier than SPP 5.5.3. (which has the color problem also)
