Colours washed out and less brightness?

You find this option at

OSMC GUI → Settings → System → Display → Force RGB output
(if you do not see it, you have to change the Settings Level on the bottom left to “expert”.

Unfortunately it might not work and will be fixed in the next OSMC update.
For so long take this workaround:

So, the end of your /etc/rc.local should look like

...
# By default this script does nothing.
echo 1 > /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/output_rgb
exit 0
