Quicktime Color Management: why so many ISSUES?!

Some solutions to fix #Quicktime issues in post-production!

With the help of several examples, I will show you how to solve problems with #Gammashift with #Quicktime and what are their origins.

I will use #davinciresolve, #autodeskFlame, #Nuke, #AdobePremiere, #AdobeAftereffect #AdobeMediaencoder #Finalcutpro and #Handrbrake to demonstrate how files can get corrupted with different OS, browsers and applications.

This is phenomenal, in the facebook forums in Resolve, color grading and Premiere - this problem comes up daily. I now have a source that I think explains the whole thing and dropping a share to this video is a lot better for my carpal tunnel syndrome typing all this out. Wish I could click the like more times. Great information.

Blackmagic should release a Mac viewer. YouTube should respect ICC tags. Job done.

Thank you so much for such an in-depth video, which clears the long existed confusion.This is by far the best video for this issue. Merci à vous, c'est génial!

I'm sharing this video with my lecturers, thank you for making such an in-depth video!

[BalanceForLife]

TLDR: Just change the export settings in Davinci Resolve to Color Space Tag: REC 709 and Gamma Tag: REC 709-A - worked like a charm! Thanks :)

[filmclub_chalkak]

This is amazing.. best video i've seen this year so far!! Thank you so much!

[AlexPetrov]

Thank you so much! It's been almost 2 years since the release of this video - has anything changed in that field recently? Any updates in software and web video services you're aware of? At least I noticed that even default export from Davinci 18 is tagged as 1-1-1, not as it used to be.

[ahmadoff-on]

Thank you very much for this work. I'm currently doing a similar experiment but when comparing the "ultimate fix" with the "Rec.709-A Fix" im not seeing an improvement. Did anything change since you uploaded the video or am i missing something? Thanks a lot!

[adeeboberoi]

The best most in-depth explanation I have seen - thank you to all that contributed With Blackmagic love of manuals wouldn’t it be great if they would make a color management guide which includes recommend workflows and testing?
