This is the main reason why the colour space on the first frame of your sequence is applied to the export. There are no formats to my knowledge that can hold multiple colour spaces, let alone dynamically switch between them. However the issue is that all media file formats expect one colour space. Now that sounds like an ideal scenario that could be thought of for exporting. However this is an interactive tool and the colour spaces are still infact different on each segment/frame. In fact you can think of it as dynamic colour space updating to give you the correct result in the viewport. When you are looking at a sequence with mixed colour spaces, the viewport automatically does the colour transformations as it moves between each frame. I had this conversation with the design team when colour management was being implemented and there is a valid reason what you see in the viewport cannot just be translated into the export.

This is down to an understanding of the colour sciences which most people struggle with and I am no exception.

Go to the MediaHub and call up the export window.All your media should now be in the same colour space which is REC709. They do not need to be under the CM TLFX gap segment as they are already REC709. In the same sequence, drop your clocks at the beginning of this sequence.You should notice in the viewport that your footage is viewed through the VIDEO transform (Colormetric) and your sequence is now REC709.Choose Tagged Colour space from Source, View Transform from Rules and Set the Display to REC709 Video (or REC2020 depending on your deliverable) Select the virtual gap across the entire sequence of ACES material and apply a Colour Management TimelineFX.Add another video track above your edit.To avoid confusion, rename this new sequence to "seq_rec709" and this is what you'll use to create the export.

Keep your original sequence in ACES and remove any REC709 elements that you added earlier (ie your clocks).The easiest suggestion is to convert your sequence into REC709 from Aces in Flame and add your clock to that result so everything is in the same colour space and you should be fine. The issue that you are running into is that you are mixing colour spaces in the sequence, and even though it is possible to do this, the export takes the colour space from the first frame of your sequence and things will not export because it has detected issues. One thing is for sure - after this i will not be trying Aces again! Please - how on earth am i supposed to export this timeline? Occasionally i get an error message saying the first frame is a different colour space so the rest of the timeline might render incorrectly.but even when i set everything up so the onscreen readout of the video settings (bottom lefthand corner of player window) for every shot/clip shows the same, I'm still getting the same problem.Īnnoyingly, when i render the timeline and just hit play - it looks perfect - its just not exporting the same as shown on the monitors. Makes no difference.output looks terrible. I have tried to use a variation on the Export View Transform with lut Source - >Aces1.1SDR-video(Rec709 limited). I tried setting the nodes to the colour of the source, to the colour of the red video clips, to Aces but no matter what i try the Clock looks fine but the actual video following the looks completely washed out. So using Colour Management nodes on the two layers, I have tried Tagging as Source, tried with view transforms and with input transforms. If i don't add Colour management to the first two layers then it refuses to export with error message saying "Invalid Sequence colour space ID: Unknown" I'm exporting to Rec709, so use a View Transform with lut Acescg - >Aces1.1SDR-video(Rec709 limited).īUT if i put my Clock at the start of the timeline (Rec709 video + Text layer on track above), then it completely screws up the export. I created the project with Aces 1.1 as its colour space.Īll footage was imported with Tag Only - Log3G10/RedWideRGB. I am having a world of problems and cannot figure out whats going wrong. 1Ĭan anyone tell me the correct way to export from an Aces1.1 project? flame masters and shot number versions.
