Hi all
I'm currently having a problem of seeing visible banding only AFTER EXPORTING from Davinci Resolve.
My current setup is a MacPro 2013, two CinemaHD display as Resolve UI, and a Plasma TV connecting BMD UltraStudio Express for 1080p monitoring.
I have a few footages from different projects, and from different manufacturers such as Kinefinity, RED & also the BMD Ursa Mini 4.6K Pro. Kinefinity recording in ProRes422HQ, BMD Ursa Mini Recording in ProRes 4444, and RED on REDRAW.
During my grading session, my footages seems fine, no banding can be seen on my Plasma TV or CinemaHD Resolve UI. But once I export them to ProRes 422HQ after grading, banding can be seen in Quicktime Preview and Quicktime player. BUT not in VLC. Example below.
