Scrambled, dark picture rendering

Hi, while I can successfully connect to my reMarkable, I'm getting bad picture:

Screenshot from 2024-01-18 12-11-59

I'm using

  • reStream 1.2.0
  • on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
  • ffmpeg version 4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
  • ffplay version 4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

The picture is dark, there's some misalignment of lines going on. However, one can still see some remnants of the actual picture. In this screenshot, I have opened Release 3.9 info page. You can see "Lefties' relief" subtitle, in black letters, mirrored, bottom-to-top direction.

There are no error/warning messages in the terminal.

Hi, this was indeed a problem since a recent firmware update and has been fixed in #101. Updating to version v1.3.1 should fix this issue.

Well I downloaded the reStream.sh from the v1.3.1, but the problem still stays. The line 4 of the file also still says version="1.2.0".

Edit: mea culpa, wasn't running the correct version, got confused about those version strings. The picture is fine now.

Ah, hmm, that is indeed an issue.

Can you look at line 173? It should look something like this:

video_filters="$video_filters colorlevels=rimin=0:rimax=29/255:gimin=0:gimax=29/255:bimin=0:bimax=29/255,transpose=3"

If that is the case, can you try changing it back to the previous settings:

video_filters="$video_filters eq=gamma=0.125:brightness=0.825,transpose=3"

I unfortunately don't have a reMarkable 2 to try a fix, so you will have to experiment a bit to see what works for you.

Yes, it's one in commit 006d83e.
But I get a good picture now, so there's no need to fix anything.
As for your suggestiong, I tried also to change the line to the version from commit 333da2a, and it sill looks fine.
