Thank you all for your feedback.
Untill now, this is a no-solution situation… a real shame to adobe (and maybe apple) and AE CS3 letting it unuseful for real quality production houses.
I’ll keep trying things… if ANYTHING goes better I’ll post here.

I don’t use color, only AE… but you’re right, when we use AE the color space is cropped no matter what setting we use in color management…
I will try with color/AE/color again, and i’m sure I’ll have the same issue…
Thanks, still looking for a solution.

I’m sorry if you were upset with my post, but only here in Cow I found more than 10 posts concerning this issue… right now one more person replyed with the same problem… and, opposed to what you said, it IS a common issue, with NO straight solution other than struggling with color management of after effects, always with result with less color bandwidth than the original p2hd footage on the fcp6 timeline… even when we apply a simple color correct at FCP6 with no chage at all, the color are slightly cropped… and with AE it is even worse.
answering your question, yes, I have the latest FCP update, latest AJA codec pack, Lates AE CS3, latest quicktime, latest osx and so on… tested both on my AJA machine and in another one with the software aja codecs, teste in uncompressed, h264, aja 2vuy, dvcproHD, animation, avid meridien, tga sequence, etc…

No, this doesn’t solve the problem… it is only a workaround for people using old (pre cs3 pre fcp6 software) and other issues concerning quicktime gamma flag for exemple.
I read the white papers from adobe concerning color management, also some blogs, and artbeats explanation of color management and color space. But, doing all that I still wasn’t able to achieve in rendered AE CS3 files, the same color bandwidth comparing to the native p2hd footage direct at the fcp6 timeline…
It appears that the old rgb-yuv mess from the dark ages of AE vs. component betacam non-linear editing from the past has become alive again…
And, I repeat, NOBODY has answered me (or any of the numerous other posts here, in adobeforuns and other foruns) straightforward… Just look at the age of this post.. Its months

I’m looking over foruns, threads, docs and haven’t found a straight, correct answer to this…
I’m having the same problem, no matter what setting I make in AE color space, aja kona control panel (codec tab), fcp easy setups, AE render codecs (dvcprohd, uncompressed, aja, proRes) etc…
the original FCP 6 timeline with native dvcproHD footage, imported from p2hd is ALWAYS much better than any combination of settings/renders from AE using the same file as source… SEVERE color space gamma shift and color crop…
Please, if someone has managed this, answer us…
