My Sony A7II Doesn't Output Very Sharp Through HDMI to OBS

Hey folks, I am starting to run out of options.
I've been using OBS for a while, and I have never bothered about the quality that much because I was just streaming my own screen + my face on my laptop. Now I added a SONY A7II to the setup - and although it looks OK - it is so different from what I see in the camera itself.

I am running SONYA7II --> FLINK4K CAPTURE CARD --> OBS and using a quite good HDMI cable.
And I am running it on MOVIE mode, as it should.

But when I look at the camera, or record internally with an SD CARD the quality is much more sharper, and more detail.
While on OBS it doesn't look that nice. As if it's more blurred, we lose detail. I feel like I've tried almost everything I could.

Any ideas?

Also I'm running on: Lower ISO (400-600), I have a lot of lighting available.

I had the same problem and did a research for weeks..

In the end the issue was solved by switching the camara to "movie mode".
