New in Beta: HDR Preview and Transmit
Hi everyone,
We’re working to expand After Effects’ HDR capabilities. Starting with AE 25.2 build 81, HDR Preview and Transmit is available.
This support for Extended Dynamic Range on Mac and DirectX HDR on capable Windows machines will enable you to preview HDR compositions in full dynamic range in Adobe Color Managed projects on an HDR-capable display or through Mercury Transmit.
Usage
Make sure your OS/Display HDR settings are turned on (if needed), then go to Color Settings. Set your project to Adobe Color Managed, Bit Depth to 32 bits per channel and choose a Working Color Space that supports HDR, like Rec.2100 PQ. Your composition will automatically be displayed in HDR.
You can also send frames in the project’s working color space to external devices via Mercury Transmit. You will need to select the proper profile in the device settings. We are working with our third-party partners to update their drivers to more fully support AE workflows.
Please give this new functionality a try and let us know how it’s working for you, and how it’s performing on your hardware.
Have a bright day everyone!
