I turned off Jellyfin's tone mapping (I remember this being a bit complicated) and let my devices handle it instead, which works better imo.
Cool, how do I make My device do it? I'm watching stuff on Arch Linux.
You have to disable transcoding on your Jellyfin server entirely, unless something has since changed
I have no experience with jellyfin in particular but maybe look for settings that allow darkness calibration in the client or device settings. Also what the other user already said, make sure both sources don't try dynamically changing anything so the don't disturb each other.
