    Color Anomaly After Render - Magic Bullet MisFire/Looks

    Hello!

    We love MB Looks and MisFire. I'm currently working on old film effect so I used MisFire. Everything looks great on preview but it renders with a weird color effect, looks like a burnt, hot spot coloration. Like a solarized effect. (see image attached)

    I tried different settings, enabled/disabled parameters, sliders, etc... What's frustrating is, once you entered effect edit mode, it will unrender so the preview image will look normal, as you want it to be, until you render it. I'm actually nesting Looks+MisFire in a filler track. I also tried them on a separate tracks, re-order stack, but no success.

    I regularly use the Looks+MisFire tandem with a favorable result.

    Any ideas?

    MB Looks 2.5.3

    Magic Bullet looks returns the wrong color space when rendering.  I wouldnt be suprised if it happens to misfire as well.  I have brought it to their attention, but they said they had no plans to fix it.

    Thanks John. That's sad news. Do you know of any official release of RedGiant about this? Anyone else, please share your thoughts or experiences. Thank you!

    Re: Color Anomaly After Render - Magic Bullet MisFire/Looks

    I have the same issue. With looks, it's as if its applying an RGB to REC709 conversion on the 709 input signal. If you have hardware scopes and you feed it color bars you can actually see it crushing the signal.

    Once you leave the Magic Bullet Gui, it reverses the correction so what looked good on the external monitor within Looks now looks dark and oversaturated back in the Avid. I've brought it to their attention as well; hopefully they fix it as it is a huge issue if you are using Looks for color grading...

    Is this addressed/fixed on the current version of Looks?
