Cant add new Luts

PostWed Jul 21, 2021 1:32 pm

Hi, I have tried to add luts by going to Project Settings/Color Management/Open Lut Folder/Copied LUTs into new folder/Update List/restarted DR 17 and still dont see the new LUT folder.

Also went into Preferences/General/Add new LUT location/ Copied folder with luts to new location/Restarted DR 17 and still cannot see the new LUTs, nor do I even see the new folder.

What am I doing wrong?

OK.

It's working here on Windows. (Same version.)

You're working with internal disks? You're using an Admin level account? Everything got installed to it's default location?

While everything you mentioned *should* work, try going to the Color page, with the Luts panel open, right click somewhere in between the luts and choose "open file location", then try to copy the lut folder you want in the new window that pops up, then right click somewhere between the Luts in resolve and choose "refresh". See if that makes the new luts appear.

I just realized that the "LUTS" files I thought I was importing werent LUT (.cube) files after all. I feel like a big dummy lol. Now, that I am importing actual LUT files, it is installing as intended.

Thanks for your help.
