Expected Behavior
Should display the scene preview as it would appear on output (streaming/recording).
Current Behavior
The preview shows incorrect colors*. Streaming and recording work as they should and are not affected.
*For some reason, color sources seem to appear normally on my monitor, as if they were the right color, but when using PrtSc or the Microsoft PowerToys Color Picker utility, it's actually different (eg. #FF4499 is actually displayed as #FF6BE8).
Here is an image of OBS when screenshotted (PrtSc) (which is NOT correct), and a very short recording of what the scene actually looks like when recorded (which is correct).

Steps to Reproduce
Use OBS with HDR on, and observe how display captures, color sources, and game captures appear.
Anything else we should know?
I am using a Legion Pro 5 16IRX9.
