I am afraid I am not using the GoPro camera. GoPro now owns Cineform and all of the consecutive since last year releases of Cineform Codecs and software are released under the GoPro logo/brand. There by definition cannot be a different “flavour” of Cineform, as it is a codec that is APId, SDKd, and licensed by one entity – Cineform/GoPro. It is not a container. All of the Cineform encoded files must behave in a similar fashion within the Cineform/GoPro apps/pipelines.
What I am experiencing is clearly a bug I just do not know whose side it is on – FSMAHM knows – Cineform platform is very buggy – CF or Resolve. Knowing, that I have no issues with changing the metadata layer of CF files that come out of other apps or from the proprietary converter HDLink.
As I have mentioned I am using HDLink with FirstLight/Cineform Studio Premium, so obviously it was not free.
As a usual practice one is able to make changes to the Cineform files within the FirstLight/GoPro Studio Premium. Changes like Color balance, gamma/gain/lift input/output curves/ LUTs, etc. I am not able to do any of those with the Cineform.mov files made by Resolve 9
Hoping to get a confirmation from other people using similar workflow pipeline.
