what codec are you using though ? the quicktime h.264 i assume which is horrible with gamma and colors.
we usually use not the quicktime > h.264 one but the one just labeled h.264. file ending should then end up .mp4 by default, not .mov. then just rename afterwards and things look better. mileage may vary of course, its all a big mumbo jumbo. willing to bet your movie also looks ok in VLC and similiar players. c.
