Photos of GH4 RAW converted with ACR not producing not accurate color

Since I left the GH3 Panasonic for the GH4 I've struggled to get accurate color of my ACR vs Faststone interpretation of GH4 raws.jpg raw photos.  The color looks great in camera and even my free Faststone Image Viewer creates precise JPEGS, but when I open the in ACR look muddy and washed out green, and other colors are simply not accurate.  I tried to create a profile but the inaccuracy of the way it displays them doesn't seem to be compatible, so which works quite well on a single photo is completely wrong for the next.

I have attached a file with the default interpretation of the cab on the left and the thumbnail created in Faststone on the right.  Faststone image is very accurate - vivid green and the feathers on the head and neck of the bird are real, not the red tint that ACR created.  I have tweaked and twisted it and although I can get the Greens right, these feathers will never look right, and I played with each slider in ACR, especially the sliders STL.  Although I don't think that this is the case, some might think that the interpretation of the cab is more attractive, but it is not accurate.

I kept hoping that enough other people have this problem and there will be an update, but that never happened.  Yesterday I was going to try to download an EXIF Editor so that I could see what would happen if I changed the EXIF of GH4 GH3, McAfee, but warned me that he download was dangerous so I stopped there.  Is there a tool in my suite Adobe complete which would allow me to edit the EXIF data?  Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

After some research, it seems that Adobe didn't create profiles of cameras for the GH4, unfortunately...

For me, both of your samples look close enough and I do not think that they would need much tweaking to look almost identical.

Regarding the pieces of color, they work quite well in most conditions. The version of Datacolor creates an XMP preset of the HSL sliders for fine tune hue of each color channel and tone. The version of X-Rite creates a color profile in the ACR camera calibration tab and LR.

Since the release of Datacolor uses the tools of LGV, the files must be in raw format. This means that you can even apply the corrections to the frames of a video.
