  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Peter/Rohit,

I am processing a footage for a DCP authoring, and I normally use a transforming LUT to generate DCI P3/7 compliant material, so I can by-pass the DCP software auto conversion. I just did a test, and exported 3 three minutes of the material using the Resolve TIFF 16 bit XYZ option, and also using the TIFF 16 bit RGB with the LUT burned in; then I encoded two mini DCPs. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I got exactly the same results when compared both images.

Based on these results, can I assume that the TIFF 16 bit XYZ option is doing the appropriate translation that my test is suggesting? If so, this is great! The encoding goes faster when I do not use the auto-conversion (RGB to X'Y'Z').

Please confirm,



BTW, I am using the QuVIS player for Mac to do the verification, and it is really a sweet cheap piece of software!
 
Any update on this matter, please? I do not want to make an assumption based on 3 minutes of footage, so an explanation wouls be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
