Hi railerswim,
Are you on a Mac perchance? The reason I ask is that Apple’s Final Cut Pro X just had an update that supports wide color gamut and HDR editing all the way through, including delivery in HLG or Dolby Vision. If you’re interested, or know someone who has a Mac, there’s some info at: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208229 It’s funny because I just watched a video on Youtube this afternoon that covered all of this. Hope that helps! 😃
Jedit: Ah! I see that you figured it out while I was typing. 😛
I’m going to play around with some files tonight and see truly what Resolve and Premiere will accept. But I also need to make sure that the HDR metadata isn’t tossed in a conversion. Adobe Media Encoder hates raw H.265 wrapped in a MP4 or MKV container. Same with Resolve. I want to avoid Handbrake if I can because it’s a hog. I like ShanaEncoder but there isn’t much flexibility over the options, plus it tosses out some of the metadata as well.
My goal is to get this all back into an H.265 MKV with at least 10-bit HDR
