bad export - color profiles

Hello guys
I've been struggling with exporting correct colour profiles
- Every clip I export is a bit darker than what I see in my viewer while editing.

Can someone please explain how and what I need to do in order to export the correct colours that I see in my main viewer?

thank you!

I use
Davinci resolve 17 public beta

If you import your rendered file back into Resolve does it look correct? If so, then it is the player you are using that is causing the problem. All you can do is make sure your render is correct which is why using a calibrated monitor is recommended.

To add to what Charles wrote, problems like this are usually caused by additional colorspace transforms done in player, triggered either by false metadata, wrong metadata interpretation or simply ”just because”. In some cases there are ways around it, like modifying metadata, but in general it is a rabbit hole with more problems than solutions.

The correct way is to not use the Viewer in the software, as it's unlikely to be an accurate representation of the signal.

And then after export, don't use a media player on the computer for the same reason - it's unlikely to be accurate.

Thank you very much!
I will check and see if the problem is in fact with my player or in my colour space setting.
