Severe red saturation on 4K Genie
I have a Samsung 4K TV connected to a 4K DirectTV Genie. Some programs are oversaturated with red in shadow areas, even when playback of recorded programs. The problem doesn't exist on my non-4k TV's when I playback the same recorded programs on them. I've swapped out my 4k Genie with a non-4k Mini
