12bit video lose saturation and gamma on export

[spetz]

hello

I recently exported a video from Flame to Quick-time uncompressed format, the result on any other PC (and Mac) was a lose of saturation and the gamma was much higher.
after working so hard on the color-correction of this video I want to achieve the same result in the export… need help here……

the material was shot with RED camera and the Raw files were transferred to an uncompressed 12bit quick-time on Color. than was taken to Flame for composting and color-correction. the last out put was in 12bit too.

when I tried resizing the video to 8bit and do the export the result was still bad. but when I imported the exported files back to Flame.. it was ok….

does the 12bit image is the problem here?

what can I do?

will it always have this difference when exporting?

I also did a check and exported it in TGA and TIFF….. no difference in the change of color/sat and gamma….

that’s a quicktime issue.

the force and different gamma curve on your footage.
for a few formats (Prores etc) you chan un-check the “gamma-corregtion” box

use dpx for flame
