Creating a clean plate while using Color Managed YRGB

Hi guys.

I want to save a frame of a clip I am working on to create a clean plate and remove an object. Problem is, I am using Color Managed YRGB.

When I save the frame (via Fusion´s "save image" menu item) while in plain YRGB mode, there is no problem. I import it back and it looks the same. When I do it with Color Management activated, there is a color shift. I guess there is a double transformation happening or something.

Thing is, I couldn´t find an adequate reverse transformation (via Fusion´s Color Space Transform Node for example).

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

When I need a clean plate a lot of the time I will just use a Time Stretcher tool set to a single frame as my base. That way you don’t have to save anything out.

Of course it I am able I will also use Frame Average to blend a few frames (upstream of that Time Stretcher) to reduce the noise (added later), as any noise in the clean plate itself would not move. A quick way to blend just two frames is to set the Time Stretcher to halfway between to frames with blend mode turned on (e.g. 7.5 blends frames 7 and 8). This is good when you are being quick and lazy about the noise, as it is better than nothing when you forget to do something about it later...

Of course this is not helpful if you planned on editing the plate in something other than Fusion, like Photoshop.
