@herf said in Flux makes the screen more red while watching video on full-screen mode:

I suspect f.lux has detected that your machine has two GPUs and is trying to handle the switch between them using a modified color profile. I haven't seen this bug before, but macOS seems to be double-loading the profile sometimes.

The first thing to try is to disable our profile writer using the instructions here:
https://justgetflux.com/news/2014/10/28/profile.html

Do the "disableProfile" command and delete any f.lux profiles from your color settings.

Also which Mac is it?

MacBook Pro 13 2015 Retina; 2,7 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core ; 8 i5; 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3

I don't have two GPU :)

There is a picture of the f.lux icon on this page:

If all else fails, you can also end the process from Activity Monitor.

Can we check your timezone?

Also what does it say at https://justgetflux.com/timesync.html

We posted a build (41.2) with a change to the way we sign the app. Seems to be working on 10.10.

https://justgetflux.com/mac/Flux41.2.zip

Click on the f.lux icon in the menu bar

Hover cursor over "Disable"

Click on "when using Google Chrome"

You may consider a menu bar manager, I'm using Bartender.
On MacMenuBar.com there are a lot of menu bar managers.
With this tools you can hide menu bar items.
Usually these items are still accessible with a single click or keyboard shortcut.

Bartender 3 is for macOS Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra and Sierra.
Bartender 4 is for macOS Big Sur.

@herf -- I created an account just to say "THANK YOU" for this. It was driving me crazy (and I also can't believe I couldn't figure that out on my own...)

And thank you, @Dave_asprey, for asking the question \o/ \o/

What are Vulkan Runtime Libraries and Its Need. Here we share information about Vulkan Runtime Libraries which is available on Your system.

Not so brilliant if it doesn't include a basic feature that has been requested for years and years. I'm pretty sure the developer just wants us to bugger off, and no, you won't be seeing manual buttons anytime soon. Probably never.

There's other choices out there now, mostly because people have encountered so many limitations with f.lux and decided to write their own.

Yes, posted the build yesterday, so please help us test!

I do! Once I opened Word and THEN looked at F.lux, I saw it. Thank you!!!

Hello! I use the Sofa app to control my laptop remotely. I tried using the Sofa app without F.Luxe. I can change the brightness of my laptop monitor remotely using my phone. If I start F.Lux, then when adjusting the brightness of the monitor remotely, the brightness is constantly reset to the value that is set using the buttons on the laptop. How can I turn off F. Lux's effect on monitor brightness? How to make the Sofa application have a higher priority in controlling the brightness of the monitor than F.Lux? I love F. Lux. But it annoys me that F.Lux does not allow other applications to change the brightness of the monitor. Thanks! Best wishes, Alexey.

Thank you Tungsten_smooth - problem solved.

Thanks @herf!
Based on that I'd recommend against any of the "defaults write" methods as written above and would edit the posts to warn and say so if they weren't locked.
I get the endorsement of the applescript gui scripting approach.

With that said, it's possible to use them with the addition of using

defaults read $HOME/Library/Preferences/org.herf.Flux.plist disableCount

to get the current number of disabled apps and

defaults write $HOME/Library/Preferences/org.herf.Flux.plist disableCount -integer 0

to set it to zero. You can change 0 to whatever it should be based on the result from the defaults read command. And then combine this with the

defaults write $HOME/Library/Preferences/org.herf.Flux.plist disable-com.google.Chrome false

from my first comment.

It's possible to create better solutions. And this one is apparently more fiddly than I thought it was when I commented my suggestion. My original goal was just to propose a simple solution for the people experiencing an issue w/ f.lux and chrome, but I got sucked in to the challenge(s). Hopefully F.lux for macOS will get an update that can solve them.
And if using the defaults commands messes something up or seem complicated I guess deleting the $HOME/Library/Preferences/org.herf.Flux.plist file, loosing all your current settings in flux and just resetting them is also an option. Editing the file directly with a plist editing tool might also be an easier option, depending.

Same to me but kinda opposite: I put in preferences daytime -> specific 3100K and after some time about 5 secs it just adjusts warmness automatically to some independent by my value.
How to fix this issue? I want to be able to adjust warmness manually.
