This value can be 0.1 to 1.0. I found out that seperate configuration for day and night doesn’t work yet but i could set the brightness by “brightness=value” line. This value can be 0.1 to 1.0.

You'll have to compile redshift yourself, or wait for the next release. IIRC the brightness-day/night feature was introduced after the last release (1.7).

brightness-day=0.7
brightness-night=0.4 

but it doesn’t work, response i get is 
“Unknown configuration setting “brightness-day”
“Unknown configuration setting “brightness-night”

I see there is no manual but if you can write an example like that there should be somewhere to lookup. As a note; i am not a coder, and i don't know any computer languages, but it shouldn't be that hard to write a configuration file right ? Edit: I was being impatient :) The answer to that question is here https://bugs.launchpad.net/redshift/+bug/662632/comments/4 Where can i find information about building a configuration file like that ?

]]> Comment on Windows gamma adjustments by Jon Lund Steffensen http://jonls.dk/2010/09/windows-gamma-adjustments/comment-page-1/#comment-4788 Jon Lund Steffensen Sat, 28 Jan 2012 15:49:00 +0000 http://jonls.dk/?p=157#comment-4788 Thanks for your suggestion. I agree that the directions can be hard to follow, problem is that I'm using what I believe to be the standard terminology. What you call a "dword" is actually called a key, but the "folders" are actually also called keys. Anyway, the REG-file is available now and that should be enough to specify exactly what's needed to get this working. Feel free to write a GUI if you need one. I rarely use Windows these days, so I don't really have a need for one. Thanks for your suggestion.

Apparently i created a wrong key and an extra dword under that key. But i really suggest you to change directions i think they are different from what you meant to say. When i remove the lines under from configuration file it worked like a charm. Adjustment-method=wingdi [wingdi] screen=1 I have never experienced a problem about the continuous mode as you mentioned. Now it is working till i close the command line. Can i ask you one more thing ? Why don't you make a gui out of these. I know there is a RedshiftGui out there but it is limited to 3400k. Running these codes everytime i start up the system may be frustrating. I wish there would be a shortcut to load it. PS: Did all with a system running Windows 7-64bit.

Let me know if it works for you. Also, please be aware that the Windows API sometimes returns errors even when the gamma adjustment is applied correctly. This may result in redshift being confused and failing even though things work fine. You may not be able to run redshift in continuous mode for this reason, but only in one shot mode with the "-o" command line switch.

And redshift uses wingdi method to work. But whenever i try to assign a different location for configuration file with -c command i ended up getting "failed to set wingdi option" Try -m METHOD:help for help message. So i try redshift.exe -m wingdi:help , this time the message is Adjust gamma ramps with the GDI. I gess that means by following your directions in regedit i couldnt make the changes successfully. Actually your directions for creating a new key is not clear. What do you mean the type must be dword. Because when i create GdiIcmGammaRange under ICM, the type of the new key is Reg_Sz and it is not possible to change it to another. The name of that key is (Default) btw i leave it like that. So after that i created a new dword key under new key and gave it 256 hexadecimal value. And the name of the dword is New Value #1 , it is named defaultly. Do i need to change the name of the key or the dword. Please give further detail. I managed to make it work without the config file. And redshift uses wingdi method to work.
