Hi, Kieran,

are the DPX logarithmic RGB or linear RGB?
In my esperience without using a 3DLUT -> The logarithmic scale of the 
RGB values always lead to washed out pictures, when transcoding to a 
linear scale.
I think you need a 3DLUT (e.g CineonLOG) and the colorspace filter to 
get better colors, because your DPXes are logarithmic.
If not, then you dont have to care for my posting :)

This video also shows very good was a LUT does with logarithmic videos:

I am experimenting with the colorspace filter, as I've found that most DCPS that I've converted have low contrast and washed out colours. As some DCP players (EasyDCP) allow XYZ -> bt709 transforms, I wanted to see if forcing bt709 would produce more satisfactory images. Clearly, I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to colour spaces, so any feedback is greatly appreciated.
