iPhone 12 pro max and 13 pro HDR footage blown out in Premiere Pro 2022 (v22.0)

After upgrading to Premiere Pro 2022 (v22.0) all my HDR footage from my iPhone 12 ProMax and 13 Pro are blown out (screen shot below)

 

 

 

There are actually similar disscussion here that talks about this issue, but i thought i would make new discussion that spesifically talks about this issue on iPhone 12 Promax series and above. So whoever having similar issue hopefully could find this thread when they're googling

 

There are two solution to fix this issue

First Solution, go to project panel, select all of your HDR clips > Right Click (windows) > Interpret Footage > Color Space Override > Choose Rec 2020

 

 

 

Second Solution (I do recommend using this), open your creative cloud control panel and just re-install previous version Premiere Pro 2021 v15.4.1 (i'm using both PP 2021 & 2022 at the moment)

 

 

 

Hope this will help whoever having this iPhone HDR footoge blown out on Premiere Pro 2022 v22.0

This new version added quite a bit of user-settable color management options (CM) and that's confused a lot of people. There are several places to check & set CM.

 

  • Clip properties in the bin: Modify/Interpret Footage
  • Sequence settings dialog settings
  • Scopes panel settings.

 

For most users with HDR media right now, I'd suggest setting the sequence to the 2100/HLG option as a starting point. Match that in the scopes and clip settings if you can.

 

And report back how well it works. It will probably take us all a bit to sort this out.

 

And the reaction of some users to the engineers adding CM options, is why many of the engineering staff were reluctant: they knew for a lot of users it would be confusing and cause issues until they could figure it out.

 

Once you understand how it's supposed to work, you'll have more options than you did before. Yea, it's painful to figure out at first.

Thank you, Kevin!!!

 

This is Yurie.

I should have asked you two days ago in on the zoom.

My client bought an iPhone13 recently, and he started filming with it and gave me footage to edit.

PremierPre was updated to 2022, so I had no idea when I saw the footage color went crazy exposure.

After I found this suggestions, I modified the color space override to Rec.2020 right now!!

Now I start to use Lumetri Color as same as before. 🙏 👍 😊

Thank you Neil it solved the problem with HDR footage from the new iPhones. But I use 5 different cameras and have different source material, I know that is not perfect, but for my private project its necessary (gopro hero, Nikon DSLR, iPhone 6s plus, iPhone 12 pro, sony compact), issue here: HDR material from iPhone 12 pro is perfect, rest is now greyish, darker and not vibrant anymore. So I can choose between two evils... do you have any suggestion?

Thank you explaining this out a bit better. Is there a way to set all imports to always view at Rec.709, since all of my footage is from iPhones? Also I have pre-created overlays I use for the videos created in AE that are affected by the color imaging. As I stated in the previous comment I am working with such a mass amount of videos that it is difficult to change each one and each are seperate exports so I am not importing all to one bin. Thank you for taking the time with these questions.


Not at this time. So on importing, just go to the bin, right-click, Modify/Interpret Footage and set to Override to Rec.709. Takes a few seconds only ... thankfully.

 

And yea, I wish we had a place to set default behaviors. One panel to rule them all ... defaults, overrides ...
