Working Color Space (ACEScg)
Display Color Space (Any)
When Importing Illustrator files with a gradient and then interpreting its color space as ‘-sRGB - Texture’ the gradient quantizes considerably. However, if you set interpret footage to ‘Preserve RGB’ and apply an OCIO color space transform effect (input : -sRGB Texture, output : ACEScg) it works as expected. They are essentially the exact same operation. Something fishy is going on in the interpret footage math.
