Colour shift while Importing

[SFA]

So this is a jpg file which has been shot as jpg AND B&W in camera?

If so the B&W 'style' is presumably burned in to the jpg file. (If is was a RAW file the Camera Film Style would be applied as an adjustment to the RAW values but could be removed or replaced. The same goes for the White Balance settings.

For a jpg the Base Characteristic files settings can only be 'Linear' since the values are burned in to the file. The "Auto" selection will, in fact be the only selection available - "Linear".

It's interesting that you see the see the same problem in other editors.

Also that the appearance on my system opening the file in a session with and without import and it made no difference - the image appeared as a regular monochrome image with no sepia tint.

HTH.

So here's the update so far.

Problem with the file: Ruled out (As the jpg file opens fine on other/your computers)
Problem with the software i.e. Capture One: Ruled out (As the file shows similar colour shift on other Image editing apps, but not on image viewing apps)
Problem with the Graphics card: Likely (As the GPU acceleration affects Image processing apps and not image viewing apps)

So i'm running a i7 8700K with a Radeon RX580 GPU. Could this be a potential problem?

To test that theory, go to Preferences and turn off the Hardware acceleration option and try again. Probably best to at least restart C1 before trying trying. Maybe restart the whole system.

I suspect it is a long shot but only takes a couple of minutes to check.

Hello everyone!

Finally Good news. Apparently what transpired is, a Windows update changed the colour profile of the monitor. It was not a software problem, but a OS problem (as this problem was affecting various Apps). I went to the System Colour Management tool and changed the default colour profile to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. That did the trick.

Thank you everyone for your kind support and concern.
