<p>I think this could be to do with "color space". I've had similar issues with exporting videos from After Effects. Exporting using "REC 709" Color space usually gives me the colours I expect. You can read more about how Adobe handle different Color spaces here:</p>

<p>Sounds like a color space / range flag or rendering issue. Quickest way to resolve this is to take a short screencast i.e. video capture of the page. Load that into After Effects and pick that color. You can't take a screnshot. It has to be a video. OBS, ffmpeg, VLC, Screenflow, Camtasia..etc can all screen-record.</p>

<p>I'm creating a video using After Effects CC 2015 for use it on a website.<br>
The background of the page on the site is <code>#607D8B</code>, so the first thing I did was create a solid with that color, and the color was right, however when I rendered, the color changed to <code>#6e8995</code>.<br>
What are the settings I need to do to avoid this problem? I exported using Adobe Media Encoder and the standard H264.  </p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

I'm creating a video using After Effects CC 2015 for use it on a website.  
The background of the page on the site is `#607D8B`, so the first thing I did was create a solid with that color, and the color was right, however when I rendered, the color changed to `#6e8995`.  
What are the settings I need to do to avoid this problem? I exported using Adobe Media Encoder and the standard H264.

Thank you.
