hello guys. my monitor is odyssey g7 hdr. i record with hdr but when i put it in sony vegas pro it become pale/gray whether in preview or after render but i solved this already but now i have another problem hdr videos is taking too much time when i mean too much i mean 10 hr for 40 minute video
so i think the problem is because i render the video as hdr so my qustion is

hi. bro i don't think you read my post fully. this post is trying to render the video as non hdr for hdr footage to reduce the render time

Your problem is 32 bit mode is slow... import your video into an 8 bit project and use a conversion LUT to convert Rec2020 to Rec709.

And Sony VEGAS doesn't exist anymore, if you're using Sony VEGAS, it isn't compatible with HDR to begin with.

I read it, it complains yet again about the footage being "gray" which we resolved by setting the appropriate media settings.

For staying in 8-bit full mode for faster SDR renders try what Frosty suggests.

Project properties is where you can change back from 32-bit. LUTs are available online including if you search this forum.

Rec2020 HLG to Rec709

I think he has PQ files, not the HLG footage.

It should be possible to transform that zu rec709

- either with a LUT transforming PQ rec2020 to rec709

- with ACES, but then he has to set the media properties in a sound way - and must use the ACES transformation to rec709.

 

Maybe it would be better to shoot to log? Is it a Canon camera?
