Windows 10: Videos get 'brighter' after a second or two of playing, any idea why this is happening?

I'll post a video to try showcase the issue, this is happening on any kind of media from any site, Netflix, Prime, Twitch etc. Basically after looking at any form of media, the video get's brighter, almost as if something has just increased the brightness 20%. I used a constant colour video just to try show an example.

https://gfycat.com/practicalfemaleirrawaddydolphin That change in colour is not the video or the recording, it's a brightness change and it happens to everything I watch on the computer.

I do have an AMD graphics card, and I thought maybe the media settings through drivers were causing it, however I've tried all the media settings and whilst they do change how the video looks, it does not stop the brightness increase happening.

Any ideas?
