Not sure why: ChromeCast on Harman Kardon BDS 580 series to Samsung MU6100 gives greenish tint
Posted by jpluimers on 2019/12/09
I had a problem similar to [Archive.is] MX613ST Color space conversion issue (detects YUV instead of RGB) – Google Product Forums.
In my case I had a Chromecast 1st generation connected to a [WayBack] Harman Kardon BDS 580, which was hooked up to a [WayBack] Samsung MU6100 TV.
Everything, especially the white and grey areas, had a greenish tint over it, and I think there was also a purple mismatch.
I think it has to do with YUV versus RGB, similar to [WayBack] Force RGB Color Space over HDMI? – Apple Community.
Though I did not notice that with an Apple TV 4th generation (which you can switch between YCbCr/RGB-High/RGB-Low) hooked up to the same BDS 580.
The solution: plug the Chromecast in the TV, then the ARC (Audio Return Channel) will automatically route the audio to the BDS 580.

Chrome 78 update at least to 78.0.3904.108 to access saved passwords
Posted by jpluimers on 2019/11/27
If you have Chrome 78 before version 78.0.3904.108, there is a high chance you cannot access (some of) your saved passwords.
This has been fixed in 78.0.3904.108: [WayBack] Chrome 78 update has removed all saved passwords for over 50 users – Google Chrome Enterprise Help
Google is aware of an issue causing saved passwords not to appear after upgrading to Chrome 78. Even though the passwords are not showing up in the UI, they haven’t been lost or deleted.
…
The fix is included in version 78.0.3904.108 which is now pushing at 25% for Mac/Win/Android and 100% for Linux (and will ramp over the next few days based on the field issues and feedback).
