The colors look quite different from Virtual Desktop/Steam Link

I know the colors on Virtual Desktop and Steam Link aren't exactly the same either, but ALVR's colors are way off compared to them

I noticed the same color change, for me, I activated the color correction option to ajust the image.

These are my color settings: Image

i am in a situation where, if i change anything about the encoder, the colors also change so like i am loosing my mind triying to make it look good, its either to white or too black, and withouth 10 bit its to dark blue, but with 10 bit its to orange/red, and cyan, so like idk, i dont have much experience with this but like, it just really feels like something is off, i want steamlink colors, siriusly i have no clue what to do lol

Hevc 10 bit encoding, color correction default settings, full range color (looks like a recording of screen with phone :c):

So its either i get fps capped on steam link to 40 cause motion smoothing, i go to trashy quest link, or i use this and i get shitty colors (better grapic detail to be fair tho), i have a 9070 XT, quest 3s, if anybody can help pls let me know, if not ill tinker with it some more untill i get tyred, then ill go into air link or virtual desktop i guess :_:

Use Color Correction, it is all manual. I have no idea much

I tried, gona try again today, but it just none of the encoders is what i need, as i said either to much of some colors or the other, or either to washed out, or to burnt, but idk will try again, would be nice if i could change values in real time lol
