description:
color transfer isn't read from the input although the data is in the header file
(-> "to input" doesn't work in prores/nvenc)

I'll look at it.

Uploaded a new dev.
Let me know whether that fixes the problem for you too.

Cu Selur
it is fixed.
sorry for the delay, above 28C my brain stops working properly
mhm it's back.. sort of? happens when i opened 2 files for input instead of a single one..
Will look at it next week
no hurries... enjoy the music Smile
I tried replication this by
  • dragging and dropping two sources into Hybrid together.
  • checking 'Show All Data' for the frist source
  • Switching to ProRes, checking the Transfer Characteristics
  • Switching to the seconf source
  • checking 'Show All Data' for the frist source
  • Switching to ProRes, checking the Transfer Characteristics
=> the ProRes transfer characteristics were adjusted properly each time

I need a step-by-step on how to reproduce this (best with two small source samples to load and switch between).

Cu Selur
i'm preparing a package...
(it's still there in 2026.07.05)

how to:
0) load the files from https://my.hidrive.com/share/r7q.1f0h.o

1) open "rotsampleoriginal.mkv" for input,

2) change processing video to "nvenc"
   - go into  the nvenc, check "av1", go to misc tab
   - activate hdr signaling
   - check values for light levels and master display data (taken from input)
   - uncheck the marks on "from input" (in order to preserve them for the next input file)

3) go to nvenc/color, see that the VUI data for primes,transfer, matrix and range are correctly recognised. nod in approval and move on.

4) open new input file "rotsampletarget.mov"
   - goto nvenc/misc, check lightlevels and master display data (preserved from last file), all correct.
   - goto nvenc/color, realise that transfer character sits at "undef", although it is present in the new source file (screenshot)

    correct it manually, or suffer the consequences Smile
Downloading sample, will try to reproduce it tomorrow. Smile
