Wrong color on Program Monitor

[#1]

Hello,

I was shooting an interview situation and have now trouble with my second cam footage.

A Sony a7s in combination with an Atomos Sumo was used to record it in 4k ProRess422HQ.
When I load the footage into Premiere something strange happens: While the "Source" monitor shows the material as it was recorded and set up at the shoot (WB and exposure seems fine, also compared to the primary camera), the colors and exposure shown on the "Program" monitor is completely off!

When i open the footage with VLC the material looks fine, but as soon as I render it through Media Encoder the colors and exposure way off again (Proxies even more)

I shot a similar Situation with the exact same set-up already half a year ago and even though the video data (codec, color space, bitrate, etc.) are the same, this time it doesn't work at all.

Kindest regards,

Mathias

Does the sequence setting match the video file 100%?

[#4]

First try: created Sequence with the RED presets

Second try: created Sequence from the a7s clip

Third try: created Sequence from the EVA1 clip

results: no difference

[#5]

Look in the Master Clip tab in the Effects Control Panel as you have the clip selected on a sequence. Is anything being applied there?

Thanks for the idea, but it's nothing out of the ordinary.

yikes

i used to use 2 computer monitors... and put the program monitor panel into the 2nd monitor to free up more space on the primary one. are you doing that by any chance ??

[#8]

Yes, I have two screens and normally I use the second screen for my program monitor.

I put the program monitor on the same screen just for the screenshot.

Try turning this off if it's on:

Thanks for the idea, I tried this already but it changed nothing.

the poster obviously must know he can just change ygain ( top of highlights in scopes down to legal limit ) and see what happens to midtones and lift ( black) to fix this per clip in timeline.. is an interesting problem.
