If this thread is about color correcting 4K77, why are you using the Bluray as your source? I mean, I understand that once it’s corrected you’ll match 4K77 to it, but isn’t that extra work - having to deal with the magenta instead of just adjusting the actual target colors?

That’s why I’m actually not that worried about the magenta, because it won’t show up for 4k77 anyway. The reason I’m using the bluray is 3-fold:

  1. I don’t have access right now to the 4k77 for a few days.
  2. At this stage I’m simply creating reference frames, so it doesn’t really matter what source I’m using.
  3. I will also be using these reference frames to correct the bluray (preferably using Neverar’s color grading as a source), and so I want to also see where the challenges are for those frames, since if the bluray can be done, 4k77 will be a peace of cake.
