HDR probably doesn't work when streaming. Hence why it looks different to running natively.

Steaming in my experience significantly degrades colors. Idk if it drops to 4:2:0 or what, but it definitely doesn’t look as good as 4:4:4 that I have when directly connected. This may not be relevant to your situation, but it’s what came to mind reading your post.
Also, typically, you handle color calibration in the monitors settings, not the OS.
UPDATE: Preview 3.5.8 contains a fix to the issue.
Fixed incorrect colors (gamma) when using Steam In-Home Streaming
Does your display not have picture adjustment controls?
PC has tons of course. SD has a few, but they only apply when playing native, not streaming.
I'm talking about the display, not the device you're connecting to it.
Monitor is an Acer ED323QUR.
