Question / Help Colour shift & H.264 quality

hi, OBS is great! Thanks for putting in what must be a huge amount of time to create this. I publish numerous music videos all at 1080p on YouTube, when I use OBS to stream a prerecorded h.264 file the quality degrades and the colours shift very slightly. This does not happen when I upload direct to YT.

I notice there are numerous colour options, but I'm not sure how to get it as close the original as possible, both in terms of quality and colour.

CPU Power & bandwidth shouldn't be a problem, I have a reliable 30mb upload connection and a 2015 4.2Ghz iMac with an SSD, 4GB graphics and 64gb memory.

I'd be really grateful if someone could suggest a series of settings to attempt to make my streamed videos look as close as possible to the uploaded ones. Many thanks :)

I take your point, I can of course edit things, but what I was hoping for was being able to take a H.264 file and broadcast it using OBS without it changing at all. Maybe I'm asking too much?
