Working with color space
You can control how Elemental Live handles the color space in a video source. You can set up an event to perform one of these actions on the color space:
-
You can set up to pass through the color space. Elemental Live doesn't touch the color space or the color space metadata.
In this case, you might need to adjust the color space metadata in the input. For example, you might want to do this if you know that the color space metadata is incorrect or missing.
-
You can set up to remove the color space metadata, because you aren't interested in including it in the outputs. Elemental Live doesn't touch the color space but it removes the metadata.
-
You can set up to convert the color space itself—to change the pixels in the video.Elemental Live changes both the color space and the color space metadata.
You can set up each output in the event for different handling. For example, you can set up one output to remove the color space metadata, one to convert it to a different color space, and another to convert it to a second different color space.
By default, Elemental Live doesn't convert the color space (in the output) or change the color space metadata (in the input). It passes through the source color space and metadata to the output.
