hey Dave, Try this - ( better preface this by saying I'm not an expert) at around 6:37 when you select the LUT for the monitor, you also have your viewer etc (below in the table) set to "use video monitor selection" - by doing that Resolve will apply the LUT to all outputs, if you change the 3d Color Viewer to no LUT Resolve should apply the LUT to just the HP monitor, which is where you want it.

Hi Dave, you need to change the 3d color viewer lookup table to No LUT selected.

Found this video because I was having the same issue. I selected "No LUT Selected" for all of the other menus.

And then I realized... in Resolve 14, on the COLOR page, everything is great, but with the same settings on the EDIT page, it applies the calibration LUT to the UI viewer as well. Anyone else experience this issue??

Hi Dave, I have been trying to fix same problem as you and now I think I can solve it reading the comment from Jeff Brass.
I'm just gonna try it again! Cheers from Tokyo!

I'm having trouble getting this to work right for a different reason. I want to use my second monitor as a computer monitor and as a Resolve monitor depending on what I'm doing. So I calibrated one user mode with a Windows ICC profile to be applied to the Display Port signal coming off my GPU, then I used another user mode to calibrate through Resolve using all the same settings to output through a Mini Monitor 4K card. Since it's the same monitor with the same calibration settings it seems like both should look the same or at least very close. However when I render out my Resolve timeline then view it in the other user mode through my GPU the output file more closely resembles the way the Resolve signal looks without the 3D Monitor LUT applied. This is really frustrating because I don't know which to trust. The signal from the Mini Monitor card looks cooler and less saturated. Which worries me because if I want my image to be fairly saturated and I judge my grade based on the less saturated display I'm worried that everything is going to be overly saturated on everyone else's display, even if they're properly calibrated...

Great question. I see the same results with similar hardware on the Mac version. Are you already invested into that HP monitor? FSI monitors let you put the LUT in them so you can bypass davinci app putting the calibration lut on. For TVs etc.. box i/o and fuji are good options, but all pricey.

I'm curious to find out if it's a bug or that's how they always have worked in the color management settings (going to both monitors at the same time).

Have just subscribed to your channel, great content! I wondered if I could get your feedback on using that Dual stacked monitor set-up? What type of work benefits that set up and do you ever get neck strain from it? Thanks

Why not just calibrate your screen as it is - without involving Reason?
