HDR flickering in darker scenes

Bug Info: (Performance mode, multiple cars and tracks. Fast flickering in car cockpit while at night in HDR. In the pictures, pay attention to the darker spots on the bottom of the steering wheel.)
Platform: (Xbox Series X)
Edition: (Standard with Add-Ons)
Account: (solo account)
PC GPU: (N/A)
Peripheral: (N/A)
Settings: (performance mode, brightness = 0.40, HDR brightness = 7,400.00)
Xbox Settings: (N/A)
Attempted fixes: (Rebooted Xbox, restarted game, changed HDR settings in game, on my Xbox, and my TV. )
Content Update: (I have not noticed this before hotfix 20.1)

I have noticed flickering in darker areas of the screen while playing in HDR. I have not noticed this flickering on my other HDR media and it is easy to replicate the flickering. On seemingly any track on any car, in HDR, at night with partly cloudy weather, the flicker is present all around the cockpit of the car. Pay attention to the darker areas of the wheel in the photos, both photos were taken under a second between each other.


I wish I could send the actual video of the flickering as that makes the flickering easier to see. If anyone has suggestions to mitigate this issue I would appreciate it!

Hello. You can send videos with your xbox.

When viewed in HDR the flickering is noticeable everywhere in the cockpit. Please let me know if something is wrong with the clip.
