I hope anyone can help me solve this:

So mush difference before and after exporting my video. Doesn't concern making snapshot - the snapshot stays the same color.
So:

before (Redcolor, Redgamma, alchemy, clarity, unsharp mask, some shadows adjustments)

after


sounds ridiculous but the fact...
trying install codecs - same

Can you suggest me the right way?
Thank you in advance!
 
What are you exporting to? Some more info might help others suggest things.

If QT, this could be a Gamma shift.

Try and export multiple formats and see what you get?
 
It's not a gamma shit if's basically a "linear lift" done in quicktime. So it can be your computer that is showing the QT file in bad order. Basically it lifts the whole image 7,7,7. which is no good.
If you export to tif, or DPX you will see that your colors are constant. Quicktime include a "view" profile that is strange enough in this time of age displaying differently depending on color settings in your computer. So simply put a tiff sequence or r3d clips converted to Qt can fall down 7,7,7 or go up 7,7,7 or be expanded 14,14,14 or contracted 14,14,14... depending on in what program the file is viewed. This make quicktime not such "pro" format. It actually sucks for these reasons. So if you got to go there you need to know where your colors will land in the next software and it's quite easy to make luts that adjust accordingly... but not so easy in RCXp im afraid.
 
The only way now is to export in TIFF and get sequence together in AE. Any other export settings just do the same - gamma is different after all
