After I compress and finish my video the colors look a lot weaker than they do in the original. I seriously tried to change every single compression option and even when I put it on 1 I still get a greyish video.
I tried the uncompressed option and the video had original colors. The compression codec I use is x264vfw (or so)

This question comes up a lot from game capturers'
Search the forum for this to see if they're any help
fraps OR grey OR gray
The usual answer is you're watching the video in a different player, or your video card has colour settings for video that are different to normal rgb display

Agree. PC range (0-255) video is being translated to studio range (16-235).
Normally this is what you want. Check it on a number of players. If your goal is to show it on YouTube, upload it and check it in Flash player. YouTube definitely prefers TV range sources. |

I recognize your problem.
I have posted same question earlier. Red was greyish.
Uncompressed was OK, colours in VirtualDub was OK.
I found out later that colours depend on which player you used.
If you use Windows media player, colours were OK.
VLC player shows greyish red.
You can change how pictures and videos shall be shown in VLC. ( brigthness, contrast and so on...)
Regards
