Hey there,
whenever I export my timeline to whatever codec, it is always darker and mostly with much more contrast than what I see in my record monitor.
I edit on a iMac 2013 on Mountain Lion 10.8.5 with Media Composer 7.0.3
I remember in the past, old Computer with 10.6.8 and Media Composer 5.5 when I exported to for example Prores422 HQ it looked exactly like in my record monitor, wich was great.
I edited Canon 5D MkIII footage with the All/i codec so I started a YCbCr project and transcoded my footage to DNxHD.
But when I export to Prores 422 it has a gamma shift and everything is much darker. It doesnt matter if I export from Media Composer or use Quicktime reference with Sorenson Squeeze or Mpeg Streamclip.
Strangely, when I export to DNxHD mov everything is more pale and less contrasty.
I m very confusd now... how do I get a nice small export like a h264 out of my timeline without it making my video so much darker?
