When you reload an exported ASC-CDL file, the Brightness and Contrast settings will be set to 0. When exporting an ASC-CDL file, the Brightness and Contrast settings are incorporated with the other color-correction values. 3DS Max with Corona render uses the same approach for a different reason: this 31-years old dinosaur must be completely rebuild by developers to make it color managed.Brightness and contrast are not saved explicitly with ASC-CDL files. Be aware, video LUTs have some specific settings. Displa圜AL can build corresponding 3D LUT between your display ICC profile and video standard ICC (Rec.709 by example), use no calibration (vcgt) inclusion in 3D LUT if you use Profile Loader. It is 3D search table, RGB to RGB directly, intermediate values are interpolated.

That is why DaVinci uses 3D LUT correction instead.

This color output takes too much time for heavy video byte traffic. This part corrects color with some long calculations, including changing coordinates from RGB to XYZ/LAB, then back. There are some exclusions, DaVinci and 3DS Max.Īctually, second part consists of some matrices, curves and usually contains 3D LUT. by Photoshop, Ae, Lr, ACDSee, FastStone viewer (you must turn it on in ACDSee and FastStone), but not by MS Paint and Windows worktable.

The secon one is used by color managed software, i.e.

The first one is loaded directly to your videocard by Displa圜AL Profile Loader, so everithing is corrected with it at your display.Note, that display ICC profile has two parts: calibration curves (better to say RGB channels linearization) and second part that is like mixed colors correction.
