If you download an MP4 from Vimeo, for example, the colour looks correct while the streamed version does not. It happens when I create Flash e-Books from my photographs, which are immaculately graded (and even when played back on my own computer). I suspect this happens when the sites convert to Flash for streaming. I suspect this happens with all video sharing sites, but I know it does happen with YouTube and Vimeo. The colour shifts from what you see in FCPX to be more red and more saturated, as well as darker. Once you know that your grade is to a calibrated standard, there is still the video sharing site colour shift issue. On a calibrated monitor, your graded video will look too warm. For example, if you monitor has a blue cast, like most, you will overcompensate with warmer colours to get the 'right' look. Firstly, you must have a hardware calibrated monitor or your grading will not be done to a standard.
