So I've been trying to fix colors on my TV (its a terrible TV so I dont expect much from it). The colors (especially reds) when using HDMI are super saturated(?) regardless of TV color/image settings and when VGA is used it seems yellow colors are low but are a lot smoother and blend better. I tried using CRU and removed the extension blocks for the TV and ended up with same colors as VGA.

Heres an image of my tests and a reference photo of my pc monitor (excuse the terrible quality from my phone).

Any ideas what causes the issue of super saturated red with hdmi and why yellows seem to disappear with vga/hdmi with extension block removed?

Cheers!
When using HDMI with the extension block removed, it's treated as DVI, so the TV might turn off some color processing with DVI.
