Shift in colors in Final Cut
When I render to Prores 444 and output to my external monitor from Final Cut Pro the pictures gets to light and milky.
My source is DPX – the setup is REC709 & unscaled full range data.
It looks correct in the quicktime player on my computer monitor, but not on my external monitor through FCP.
Anyone found a workaround or perhapse another application to use for screening with sound and graphics ?

You should never use your Computer monitor as a reference, unless your final delivery is for the web. But even then I would question that…
If you have an external monitor, that is what you should be using.

I got an external monitor. The problem is that FCP wont display the same as Davinci.

Yep, the difference is between full and legal ranges. If you’d use legal range in Resolve, then it will look the same.. ish in FCP…
But if you want to preserve the full range, then I think you have to use RGB processing in FCP instead of YUV, which, I think, is limited to legal range. -
Hey Mats,
I’ve experienced this before. In FCP locate the 4444 file in the browser and look at its alpha settings. Make sure it’s set to NONE. This should take care of it. Also you may notice that when you cut that clip into a timeline it comes up with a render bar above it, once you change the alpha setting to none this will go away.roman hankewycz
