[solved]

This is an artifact of the Fusion clip being inside a timeline inside of a compound clip in DaVinci Resolve. When I back out of the Fusion page and look at the image in the timeline, the saturation, etc., is correct.

This is odd, and surely a bug. This means that, in this arrangement, I can’t comp and see the image from this Merge node c…

Merge1’s foreground input and output have the same waveform and vectorscope images (the same brightness and saturation). Switching the viewers of each merge node doesn’t change its image (the Viewers LUTs match).

I can sort of match the input and output in the Viewer with a Color Corrector node before Merge1— while distorting Merge1‘s output s…

What is the problem in the attached photo? Why is the output of Merge1 desaturated?

It’s foreground input, Merge_FG_01, outputs two merged RGBA images as one pre-multiplied image (as a Merge node does). It’s alpha channel is 1.0 for the foreground.

It’s background input, Magenta, is a Background node set to a solid magenta color.

Merge1’s Cha…
