Describe the Bug

Here is an screenshot showing the Brave browser logo, on top is how the logo should look like and on the bottom is how it is shown in the stream. Image

This shot is from the macos moonlight client, but it's exactly the same on the android client. I have tried everything; HDR on-off, SDR full-limited range (SDR Full vs Limited range. I confirmed the range actually switches in the log (MPEG to JPEG) and the icon looks the same either way), raising-lowering bitrate, everything you can think of, nothing solves it.

Stream parameters from sunshine.log

Color coding: SDR (Rec. 709)
Color depth: 10-bit
Color range: JPEG
Streaming bitrate is 80988000

My card does not support AV1 encoding, so I'm sticking to H265, I also tried H264, same results.

If you need any further information please let me know, thank you guys!

Expected Behavior

The stream looks similar to the content on the host's screen
