Hi folks,
Since I upgraded to High Sierra a month or three back, I've been running into an interesting problem: when I'm playing videos - or when the computer thinks I am - the rest of the screen (ie, everything but the video rectangle) totally desaturates and turns to greyscale.
Initially it was rather entertaining, but is rapidly becoming a pain as I'm spending a lot of time editing videos!

It overrides f.lux and Night Shift - I'm wondering if there's some 'helper' tool installed, and where would be the appropriate place to find out?
I've looked in the obvious places (including System Prefs/Privacy and Security; /Accessibility; /Displays, amongst others) and have googled around for the answer, but haven't come up with any results.

Any suggestions on what might be causing this, and how to stop it from happening? Happy to provide more system info if needed :)

Cheers!
Fred
