The correct video has color range = limited (mpeg in CinGG) and color space BT.709.
The second video has color range = full (jpeg in CinGG) and color space BT.601.
I think this is the origin of the dissimilarity.
See also these two recent posts, to get an overview of color in CinGG:

A suggestion from Andrew is to check in the Settings pulldown, Preferences option, Appearance tab, Color area for the "YUV color space" that is in effect.

I want to ask for help because the colors in the exported rendered video were very ugly. This is a compiled question with the google compiler, so I apologize in advance for any errors!

The original video where the colors are beautiful, vibrant.

The mediainfo output is in the description below the video

I exported the file without editing with CinGG-20220228-x86_64-older_distros-multibit.appimage. I use MX Linux. I chose h265-hi.mp4.

The result, which gave much dimmer, matte, less vibrant colors:

What could be my fault?

If you have any ideas, I would appreciate it.
