OBS 29.0 recording colours washed out

Installed 29.0. Tried recording and all the colours are washed out. I have a 7900xtx and I'm running windows 11.
The advanced settings are NV12, Rec 709 and Partial. If I switch on HDR the recording looks better but non HDR looks dreadful.

In-build Adrenalin records fine but doesnt have support for multiple audio tracks.

Any ideas?

You may want to run the Auto-congiuration Wizard (tools menu) and apply the settings it gives.
Please restart OBS and perform a test recording of at least 30 seconds doing as you normally do, including playing games, full camera or whatever you normally do.
Now look inside Help menu. Upload the current log file and paste the url to the log in here. Click on the Analize button to start troubleshooting common issues.

Analyze shows nothing. There were some issues which I resolved like mismatched audio but this issue still exists. In addition I've noticed the washed out colours occur in the scene preview. When moving my mouse the scene preview flickers like mad and alternates between a non washed out preview and a washed out one. On stopping the mouse, the scene is washed out.

Don't look like an issue on OBS side
In this lines you can see it.
10:20:40.999: [AMF] <Id: 1> Unable to set converter transfer characteristic, error AMF_NOT_FOUND (code 11) 10:20:41.066: [AMF] <Id: 2> Unable to set converter transfer characteristic, error AMF_NOT_FOUND (code 11)

Clean install the video driver to see if this solves the issue. Don't know if AMD provides a clean install option but you can try using this method: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/performing-a-clean-gpu-driver-installation.65/

Sorted this. I reinstalled windows and the issue has gone. It must be something that DDU isn't able to clean up when you've had a Nvidia card and you go to AMD. I did have a 3080ti before I got the 7900XTX.
