In any viewer I can enable a display LUT, which in my case I have set to OCIO colorspace, to view EXR sequences rendered from Blender. That allows me to see the render in Fusion as close as possible to what I saw in the Blender render window.
Now, as far as I can tell with the Decklink Mini Monitor 4K that's not an option, correct? The only way to achieve that is to actually place an OCIO color space node, but this is kind of a pain when you extract multilayer EXRs and want to composite them with some color corrector nodes along the way. And maybe if working on an sRGB project you can do some basic CC with the computer monitor, but if you rendered in Rec.2020 to create an HDR pipeline, then the computer monitors are useless, unless you have a very expensive monitor with good HDR, but even then, it's not the best idea since it still goes through the OS display management. So it's better to do any image tweaking sending the picture out via the Decklink to at least a decent TV set with HDR. But it's a pain to disconnect that OCIO Colorspace node from one node and connect it to the next one you want to color correct and so on.
So there's no way to assign a display LUT to the Decklink like you can with any viewer window?
