- Hi All, For the past two weeks Xfinity stream has not been working on my Macbook. The website itself will load and I'm able to watch any recorded shows, but OnDemand isn't working. When I select a show it just keeps buffering. All other streaming websites are running perfectly okay (Netflix, YouTub.
- Previously, the Xfinity TV Player app only allowed for streaming of on demand movies and TV shows for viewing, as Comcast originally rolled out streaming video to iPod and iPhone in 2011.
I noticed when watching movies on my 27 inch iMac that they are too dark especially in dark scenes. What I mean is that there are a lot of details in the blacks missing compared to watching on a normal DVD player. I've also noticed the same thing when watching a movie on a projector hooked up to my macbook air. Turning the contrast or brightness up doesn't work as it just washes out the blacks. Here's the cause of this frustrating problem and how to fix it!
Firstly, here's how to fix it…
1. Open System Preferences Menu and go to ‘Displays'
Choose from Xfinity full Video On Demand library, filtered to show only the content included in your subscription at no extra charge. Stream rented TV shows and movies right to the app during. Enjoy the return of live sports. Catch your favorite teams on the go with the Xfinity Stream app. Plus enjoy thousands of free shows and movies on any screen, and download your DVR recordings to watch anytime — even offline.
2. In the Displays Panel for your Projector select the ‘Color' tab.

3. Unselect the ‘Show profiles for this display on this display only' then select one of the new profiles that appear. Try sRGB IEC1966-2.1 or Adobe RGB(1996). See if that brightens up the movie on the projector.
4. If that doesn't work or if you want more improvement, press the ‘Calibrate' Button.
5. Now check the box that says ‘Expert Mode'.

6. Now press ‘Continue' 6 times till you get to this screen that adjusts the Gamma setting:
Move the Gamma setting to the left. Go towards 1 to get your video lighter.

I'm not completely sure how Gamma works, it's related to the way we perceive light levels and the way that increments in light intensity are is spread out at different light levels. You can read about it here on wikipedia and Apple have an article here.
The short story is that changing the Gamma setting to the left seems to help with brightening up a movie on a projector. But it looks very washed out to use this Gamma setting for everything.

So I'd suggest saving two settings, then switching the display when you want to watch a movie or use a projector.
