Switch to Davinci Resolve....problem solved.  Just kidding (but not really). I used Premier for years, got tired of paying the subscription fees, learned Davinci Resolve in 1 week, best decision I ever made. If you shoot LOG with a DR supported camera, DR's managed color is another real time saver; there's also tutorials that help you do the same things you do in Premier in DR; I used a few of those, a few of Blackmagic's training courses, especially on color grading and project setup, and within 1wk could do everything in Resolve that I used to do in Premier.

No more endless subscription fees, no more weird render failures, no more crashing, no more forced updates leading to project instability, etc. etc.

There’s always a discrepancy between premiere renders and how Macs display them. The gamma will be lifted. It’s an apple / adobe disconnect. I don’t expect it ever to be fixed tbh

i saw this and tried the lut -- worked ok but i can just make a custom adjustment layer for export to counteract the problem with likely better results. just seems so stupid smh

So it looks like you're trying to export the file as HLG? Is the original footage HLG? The project doesn't look like it is (at least it doesn't mention it in the project settings.) Under "Basic Video Settings" hit more and see if you can change that.

Also is there any reason you're using custom settings instead of one of the presets?

thank you @newfoundmass, ive been busy but im trying to suss this out. this was a multicam shoot, i have to go thru all the data... ugh

im only seeing the 'hlg' on export, dunno why. been reading this

https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/faq-how-to-fix-saturated-over-exposed-hlg-hdr-clips-in-premiere-pro-v-22/td-p/12489252

but all the settings in my projects are set to rec 709 as that thread describes, so i dunno. still working on it, just wanted to say thanks! 

obviously a general color issue upon export as described in this thread is a problem, and just confuses the issue for me, having not used premiere in a while. anyway!!!! 😡😤

It doesn't look it! I'd try exporting using one of Premiere's default settings, because I think the custom one you're using is probably where the issue is!
