--- Quote from: Hendrik on May 30, 2022, 03:37:38 pm ---JRVR uses the metadata from all supported DV profiles - however, it does not use all of the data. It uses DV data to produce a better HDR image, but does not use the DV tonemapping data to create a better SDR image (yet).

FEL support is complicated, and not likely be "near future".

Is tone mapping of DV to SDR still on the roadmap? 

Using some test files (on JRiver 33, Mac) it seems that profile 5 and 8 files typically don't tone map to SDR (colors are terribly off) but some profile 7 files render into SDR okay. 

Is that the expected behavior?  Are there settings I can adjust to increase compatibility?

Hendrik:
The DV tonemapping metadata is entirely optional (it only serves to improve the image), tonemapping if setup properly should result in a perfectly acceptable SDR image as it is right now.

nathan_h:
Okay that is good to know. 

I'm less concerned whether the DV meta data is used in the tone mapping at present and more focused on why certain DV files don't seem to tone map to SDR at all.

HDR10 and HDR10+ render fine in version 33 on my Mac.

But DV is less likely to render well:

nathan_h:
So I must have some setting here wrong?
