    ASC CDL in Resolve

    Posted by Thomas Wong on January 5, 2012 at 8:56 pm

    Is there anyway I can take in a CDL and slap it on footage in resolve? I figured out how to do it with .cube files. I drop that in the LUT folder and can apply it on a node or set it as an output node in the preferences. I see there is a CDL option in the conform screen when i right click on the footage, but is there just a easy simple way to

    A. take in a CDL and apply it on a clip as a LUT

    and or

    B. create a primary look in resolve and export a LUT/CDL

    thanks.

    Hi, CDL’s are imported with the appropriate EDL as per the SMPTE standard. You can’t place on manually. CDL exports also follow the standard.

    Thanks Peter, I figured out how to do a proper import of a asc cdl. and figured out how to export as well, however when i save as a CDL in the conform menu from the timeline, it saves as a EDL. I’ve successfully re imported it back and reapplied the LUT to my clips, however is there anyway to save this as an actual ASC CDL format rather than a EDL to take into other systems?

    Hi Thomas, can you indicate what format this should be in, what standard that is interchangeable, or are you just after the 9/10 elements? How will you link this to the source clip? Send your idea addressed to me at davincihelp@blackmagic-design.com
