  RE: Broadcast Safe - V22 vs V17
  The reason I'm not fond of the Broadcast Colors fX (at least the presets) is the loss of detail in the highs and lows while a simple Color Curve can achieve the desired output levels while maintaining the detail. I'd stop struggling with Legacy 8

  RE: About pricing... special 'til march 4th ? what ?
  No problem! The difference is, with Resolve, you are on the Color Page, so it will work without anything further to do. With Vegas, as you know, there are no different "pages". Everything can be there right in front of you without clicking on

  RE: levels dilemma
  Thanks! As I work in 32bit video levels, gamma is greyed out and set to 2.2 by default.Yes studio RGB is unchecked.I ended up using the color curves plugin to limit the black levels to slightly above zero, and that finally worked.

  Interesting in deed. I have the Mini 3 Pro and and a G9 that I shoot in 4K 10 bit 4:2:2 in addition to 8 bit. The files can be MOV or MP4. I will use plugins, color correct/grade and always never an issue rendering the finished videos.

  RE: need help understanding / managing banding in 10 bit.
   In general I'd do correction first (start with the conversion then further tweak exposure, contract, color) and finally add a look if you want via LUT or manually. The thing with this particular LUT is that it strongly reacts to luma values, as it

  RE: V22 239 cannot render project, crashes every time
  Are you using both ACES and a LUT filter? It's really one or the other. (at least for transforms, I suppose you could add a look one at the end) That the crash says open color io suggests a problem with ACES transforms

  RE: adding text to video timeline
  @Gid Thanks, text works now. & that's weird, I never touch that. I do apply FX to every clip individually. I just opened and says Color Grading checked, but does nothing when I uncheck. Very weird. Maybe no attributes or whatever tied to it.

  RE: Survey: What min/max levels does your cam shoot?
  I think I'm misremembering how VEGAS works and it's just that the studio RGB setting in scopes doesn't do anything with the histogram.Anyway, to do this test property use 8-bit video levels and what you see in the histogram is the answer. It doesn't

  There's no screenshot. Check the scope settings and if they have Studio RGB levels checked or not. Broadcast doesn't touch the levels does it? I thought it was just for color saturation. You need to convert everything to studio/video levels with

  RE: iPhone videos' colours change after importing into Vegas pro 22
  Johnny, you wouldn't turn on HDR mode (HLG or HDR10) if you don't have an HDR monitor as you can't accurately see what you're doing.Alex suggested just a generic REC2020 color profile as there isn't a phone specific one.

  RE: V22 239 cannot render project, crashes every time
  I don't use ACES, although I found it to be the most color accurate transform.. I use the Vegas LUT filter in the track FX with a Phantom LUT. ACES is greyed out. I never use it as I work with LUTS to transform my LOG footage.

  RE: need help understanding / managing banding in 10 bit.
  @Mindmatter How did you do the log to Rec709 conversion? I'd suggest either a LUT at the media level or ACES and set the appropriate color space. After that add the look stylistic LUT.

  RE: need help understanding / managing banding in 10 bit.
  Than you for clarifying. Did you compare it to the built-in conversion LUT in the color grading panel? Also when you go to render in 32-bit full mode make sure the view transform is set to off in project settings or it will be double corrected. I
