Capture is over bright / over saturated

See original GitHub issue

Capture from many laptops is over bright / over saturated.

The root cause seems to be the Byte 23 - “Display gamma, datavalue = (gamma*100)-100 (range 1.00–3.54)” (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Display_Identification_Data).

@mithro & @xfxf Yes, I think this has been fixed now. I changed the gamma value and it seems to have improved the capture brightness.

I’ve not noticed any problems, before it was super obvious, so I believe fixed, yep.
