Rules:
Sudoku: Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1-9 into each row, column and box without repeats.
Renban: Lines in the grid are Renban lines. A Renban line contains a set of consecutive, non-repeating digits in any order.
Ambiguous XV/Kropki dots: The grid is cluttered with 4 differently coloured dots. The 4 colours represent the 4 constraints of White Kropki, Black Kropki, V and X clues. Which colour represents which constraint must be deduced by the solver.
Puzzle Links: You can solve the puzzle in either F-Puzzles or in the SudokuPad / CTC software.
Solution code: Row 5

Really fun puzzle, but as a colorblind person it would've been impossible to play without someone explicitly writing down which dots were green/yellow.
