DaVinci Wide Gamut / Intermediate

Completed

Suggestion

Feature Request

Would love to have the option to export any looks or use any effects in DaVinci WideGamut/DaVinci Intermediate.

Would love the tools to exist inside Resolve as a OFX or DCTL plugin so that it can happen live in the timeline in scope of other tools being utilized.

Use Case

I'm a professoinal colorist and I want this ability to integrate into existing workflows and provide myself access to more creative tools.

Hi @bt995 - thanks for your suggestion!

DWG Color Space

Yes! Got the implementation ready and will add support with the next update. DWG / Intermediate will be available as an in-app input color space and under Export/Color Management for creating [DWG <-LOOK-> DWG] LUTs.

The tools will not exist directly inside Resolve. Here's why:

Color.io is a standalone render engine and raw image processor. Neither the OFX plugin API nor the DCTL scripting API allow for a direct port of what Color.io is doing under the hood.
The user interface capabilities of both OFX and especially DCTL are too limited for my liking. Mapping every control in Color.io to a slider or number input in Resolve would result in a cascade of about 70 sliders and a downright terrible user experience.

That said, New DCTL coming soon...

I'm working on a new version of the DCTL generator that will add some more flexibility to Resolve Workflows (within the constraints mentioned above). It will allow you to quickly switch and mix between up to 6 color managed LUTs exported from Color.io (either ACEScct or DWG). It also exposes some useful controls for fine-tuning looks on a shot-by-shot basis.

@bt995 - Davinci Wide Gamut Intermediate is now available under Export -> Color Management. This setting generates a LUT that expects DWG as input and output. Let me know if it works for you! 🙌
