Footage is washed out on output no matter what?
Any project I output from FCPX to any H.264 format is washed out and losing so much detail in the highlights? I have tried several parameter and they all seem about the same.

The media is Rec 709 and should be edited in that color space and exported like that. You really can't force SDR into HDR.
So I just used FCPX to locate the clip adn then "show in finder" and that was the clip I uploaded, or really just a segment of it. One thing I have no idea is that when I started this project I imported the clips from Apple Photos and realized since my photo library in in iCloud only, it was struggling to download and import the clips in a timely manner, but I did not make any alterations that I know of to those clips before importing them
You can't really use iCloud Photo library with video for editing. The media should be imported directly from the iPhone into FCP, or AirDropped from the phone with All Photos Data to ensure you have the original format.
Thanks very much
