Color Blown Out when using Pre-Gen Graphics

Hey everyone!

So I ran into the HDR Rec 709 issue in premiere pro(where all your video gets blown out) and long story short lost 12 hours worth of video editing. I've mostly righted the ship, but I need help: When I import a video normally, totally fine. When I add it to a pre-generated template, the video goes back to being blown out.  I'm working with some Pre-Generated templates from the Adobe Stock store, and one of them does a simple split screen.  How do I fix this? Any advice would really help. I am almost to the point of scrapping my entire timeline and project and just restarting.

You need uinified settings from ingest to export. Go to the Lumetri panel Settings tab ... the one NAMED Settings.

 

All color management settings are grouped there now. So go 'there', with the Sequence active in the Timeline panel, and tell us what the color space of the timeline is. Rec.709, HLG, or PQ.

 

So ... what is the sequence color space in those stock templates? You probably want auto detect log and auto tonemapping 'on', and of course, only use export presets built for that sequence color space.

 

Rec.709 export presets do not list the color space in the preset name. HLG presets all have HLG in the preset name, as do all PQ sequences.

That last bit was my missing link. I don't think any of the ones I was using were built for the color space, though I've been throwing them into a different sequence, exporting them out of that sequence then throwing them BACK into the original sequence and it seems to be working much better...time consuming but better. 

I just have a crazy large video I need done by tuesday and I wasn't expecting the color fiasco I created for myself. I'm going to deep dive this summer to finding out what HDR does for color editing nowadays, but for now this solution works. Thanks again for your help!

It's more complicated now. More complex. What is possible with HDR, is amazing. There are two separate components ... wider dyanamic range, which is black to white, is one. The other is greater color volume, with color saturation possible even in bright "light" tones. This is the wider color range   part of it.

 

It can be sorta mix & match too ... and there are mulitple competing forms of HDR, most screens can't do them yet, the ones that do only do one or two of the options, and often ... that limited if not flat out poorly.

 

But some screens can do a beautiful, entrancing job with the right feed.

 

Rec.709 is far more reliable as a medium ... but HDR is simply ... and totally ... intriguing.
