When I export from Premiere to a .mov, NONE of my Lumetri color correction work is showing up. VERY frustrating as I wish to get my work online asap in order to apply to jobs. When I upload an .mov into my Portfolio page, still NONE of the Lumetri color effects show up, EVEN THOUGH (and this is nuts!...) when I import that .mov BACK INTO Premiere, into a brand new project, in the Source Monitor you CAN SEE the color corrections! Which means they are there in the .mov, they just dont want to show up in my Media Player (or Pf's media player it seems). Help! -J

    QuickTime...sucks.  Just don't use it if you don't have to.  For online work, you don't have to.  MP4 is the standard these days.

    This is not a problem with the media, it's with the players used or system settings. From LONG experience dealing with this sort of thing.

    PrPro works in and exports stock-standard BT(Rec.) 709 video files ... 0-255, stock gamma, period. This is sRGB by international standards. It sounds like what you're viewing it through ... the player and/or your monitor ... are using a different color space and gamma setting.

    Some monitors may be in other color spaces, say A-RGB, P3 (I think it is ... ) ... or something else. On such a system, it is likely that PrPro produced media looks different "outside" of PrPro if the player used does not on it's own work in Rec. 709/sRGB space settings.

    QuickTime player is notorious for this. And many of the included 'system' media players do things to "enhance the viewing experience" which simply muck up the imagery.

    I would suggest first checking your monitor's color settings, and if at all possible, going to sRGB and calibrating with a puck/software setup. Some useful ones are available for under a couple hundred USD, and while not perfect, will be useful for most non-broadcast needs.
