#I need help with my stupid TV. (Can’t change color settings)

Ok so
We all know how most TVs have bad hardware. Well my TV, a Panasonic, also runs bad software. It runs something called TiVo OS or whatever and I HATE it. Apart from being horrible to use, it also has a little quirk that’s been driving me crazy. I didn’t find anything related to my problem on Google so I’m hoping that someone here can help me.
I use a TV box with it occasionally since I can’t get android TV apps on TiVo OS. And there’s a color setting that ruins the image. Excuse the language, it’s Greek. Translated from Greek, the setting is called “Gamma color matching”.
In the video I’ll send, you can see the problem. I have an episode of Modern Family paused in a scene where the problem is visible.
(Also ignore the funky surround sound setup haha)
With Gamma color matching on, the colors get all blown out and it makes people look red in the face. When I turn off the setting, it looks fine. But the problem is that the TV doesn’t let me turn it off! As you can see in the video, I go to the settings, give a little demonstration, turn off the setting, and when I go back to the source where the TV box is plugged into, the setting re-enables. I have been messing around with the settings both on the TV and TV box for hours and I can’t seem to fix my issue. I also tried keeping the setting on and tinkering with the color percentages but it never looked any good no matter how long I tried.
Am I doing something wrong?
Does anyone with a similar TV have the same issue?
