@bash100 I used to have this and solved it the same way, a sort of red blockiness you could see on skin tones or the blue backgrounds in the menus cleared by a power cycle.

I recently changed all my HDMI cables to certified 8K versions (total overkill but they were on a deal!), and haven't had the problem since.

Can you try a different HDMI cable?

I had the same issue with red saturation. Changed HDMI cable and all sorted.
