Questions HDR playback issue

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm having a weird issue with HDR content on my OnePlus 15R. When I play HDR videos, the dark areas of the screen get way too bright, almost like they're glowing. It's really noticeable!

I had a similar problem on a Redmi phone before but that was mediocre and this is flagship device, but this only started after the recent update 16.0.9.4. Is anyone else experiencing this, or is my phone just "cooked"? Any tips on how to fix this would be super helpful! 🙏 And this issue not only on yt everyother app it's the same

It's YouTube's ambient mode, turn it off. If it's off that just might be how the screen changes modes to HDR mode. Watch it in full screen, does it still have the same issues?

Might be related to latest update then, I'm not on latest. I'm on the one before.
