Setting the color space for EVR & MadVR

<< < (2/4) > >>

tij:
MadVR does not control/switch this settings

I only know this for NVidia cards (as I don’t own others) ... go to NVidia Control Panel ...
[Display]->[Change Resolution] -> [3. Apply the following settings]

Choose [Use NVidia color settings] then options you want will be available under output dynami range  (full is 0-255 ... limited is 16-255)

This is global setting ... meaning MadVR will not able to change output dynamic range (not that it ever do such a thing lol)

In the NVidea control panel I have it set to use the application setting.  I can adjust this in madvr and I get a noticeable change.  The setting I'm changing is under Video, Adjust video color settings.  I have been told and have been following to set the GPU color range to full, and adjust the video color range or space via whatever video player I'm using. 

jachin99:
I should also point out that under display and change resolution, I have it set to RGB Full.  I'm not sure if this only applies to desktop applications, and video setting sets the range for MC but that would make sense to me.  Even so if the GPU is looking to the video application to set the range then I'm still not sure where to change this when EVR is set as the renderer.

darky:
I think you have to look in LAV for that and the driver

tij:
You are right ... in MadVR settings ... on display property you can specify what display is expecting (full or limited dynamic range) ... I set mine of course on full (0-255)

However, I highly doubt that MadVR tells NVidia driver to change its dynamic range (that’s why MadVR settings explicitly state “what display expects” ... and not “switch dynamic range to”)

In other words ... imo MadVR will generate/render video for dynamic range you tell it to, but it will not tell GPU to switch to that dynamic range ... that’s on you (aka you have to do it yourself)

With my MadVR set to generate dynamic range 0-255 ... if I specify in NVidia  control panel “let application decide” ... I get elevated black level (aka grey ... not black) on playback to LG E6 ... set it to [NVidia Setting] with full dynamic range and I get blacks as black

Which let me to believe following:

1. default dynamic range that NVidia uses is 16-255
2. Red October Standard renders in 16-255
3. MadVR renders to whatever you tell it, but will not tell GPU to switch to matching mode (that’s on user)

So ... what you been told is correct imo
1. In NVidia set to “Nvidia Settings” and put full dynamic range (YOUR TV/PROJECTOR MUST SUPPORT IT)
2. Then set renderers to output in that mode ... in MadVR that’s under devices

PS. Why you using EVR? ... why not just use MadVR for all videos?
