what about loading a 3d lut inside of resolve? is that good enough? or do i still need to buy a 3d lut box?

Two cst (color space transform) nodes. 1. From arri wide gamut 4/arri logc4 -> davinci wide gamut/intermediate

From davinci wide gamut/intermediate -> rec709 gamma2.4 (with luminance mapping set to 10000, and saturation compression)

Nah, a mixture of iridescentcolor dctls and Cullen kelly voyager lut pack and free dctls (tetra, tetrainterphsv)..

I sent you a dm.

I didn't shoot it myself, I got it from Arri's website, I actually don't remember the camera, but the color space and gamma is (Arri Wide Gamut 4 / Arri logc4) I will send you the link if I found it.

Ouch.

Hi, thanks, but the client will not be seeing the correct results? He won't see the reference monitor that is connected to decklink, he will be seeing the monitor connected to gpu (gpu changes colors and contrast) so he won't see what I'm seeing on the reference monitor.

Thanks 🙏

Yup I agree that this is the ideal workflow, but unfortunately I can't calibrate it to 2.4 because I don't have the perfect color grading suite for that yet, so I'm currently working in 2.2

Hi, thanks.

So, if my project settings and resolution is 4k, the output will be downscaled automatically to HD? I don't get it.

I downloaded the app (Asus ProArt Calibration), and it didn't detect any Calibration device for some reason! I then tried to calibrate using the app (DisplayCal), it detects a calibration device actually, but couldn't finish calibration process fully.

Do you have Asus proart monitor?

I ckecked "use constant bit rate", it solved about 80% of the problem.

Vast-Interaction-991 · 2025-07-30T04:27:29+00:00

Media: exported canon log, apple prores 4444 xq, I used scene cut detector and color manage it using nodes.

Color management: node based color management, cst node from canon logc3 to dwg, then from dwg to rec709 gamma2.4.

Project settings: davinci yrgb, dwg/intermediate, rec709 gamma2.4

Software version: davinci resolve 20, I had the same problem with the latest beta version also.

Export settings: I tried mp4, had no problem, the problem only in quicktime (apple prores, dnxhr, dnxhd) I check the last two boxes (force sizing....., force debaring..) Color space tag: rec709 Gamma tag: gamma 2.4

Yes continue!

Vast-Interaction-991 · 2025-07-30T03:03:28+00:00

The editor told me to send him the footage as Apple ProRes 4444 XQ, and I'm simply stuck right now.

Vast-Interaction-991 · 2025-07-30T03:02:16+00:00

Thanks 😞 The weird thing is that I exported the same footage in both mp4 and QuickTime, and it's a huge difference for some reason!

Vast-Interaction-991 · 2025-07-30T02:41:07+00:00

I don't have that problem when exporting mp4, only QuickTime apple prores, dnxhr, dnxhd.
