Bug? Output Color Space keeps resetting

PostSat Oct 01, 2022 12:24 pm

So I've noticed something really strange in 18.0.3 and 18.0.4 (not sure if its prevalent in previous versions).

Create a new project, set Color Space to DaVinci Color Managed, set Color processing mode to HDR and Output Color space to HDR PQ or HDR HLG and Rec.2100 ST2084 for PQ or 2100 HLG for HLG).

Save the project. Close, re-open.

Output Color Space has changed to SDR.Rec 709.


Weird...

How are you doing the "and"? Normally there's just the two options - Color processing mode and Output color space.

Tick the "Use separate color space and gamma button" above the Output Color Space selection box and the options will appear.

I'm seeing the same in Studio 18.0.4 on Windows 10.

That said, as you're using the proper Gamma for the matching Color Space, maybe just don't separate them?

I tried that but then found it was Delivering mismatched codecs in the end file :-(

Update; it looks like 18.1.1 fixes this problem :)
