i'm trying to track down an xonotic video capture bug that results in washed out colors
basically, a vid capture through cl_capturevideo is washed out, but a screenshot is not, and no one else seems to have this issue and i have no idea why it happens :D

(can anyone here reproduce it? repro steps would be to install xonotic, start it, then in the console (backtick or shift+escape, it works in the main menu) do cl_capt<tab>(to cause yellow text to appear in the console, which is what seems to be most obvious for me) cl_capturevideo 1 then cl_capturevideo 0 and then look in ~/.xonotic/data/video)

https://github.com/xonotic/darkplaces/blob/9acc6233eb9fb8be9faf56ebb1c796995bc41f16/cap_avi.c#L338 seems to be where it happens yeah

i'm surprised it fucks up the color that much, is there a way to at least get the colors somewhat accurate?
