@@NoNetPlays It was at about 4:36 , I mention that you are supposed to paste the attributes on the text clip but in the recording I was resetting the settings SO that I could paste the attributes, and I put the wrong clip in the video 😅
I don't have any of these HDR setting in my Davinci Resolve 18.5 I'm using the free version. Might been a good idea to mention that this only works on the paid studio version unless I'm missing something
Interesting point, my monitor is 408 nits so I had to, aside from all that you mentioned, set a "custom max output" on the CST (color space transform) to the adjustment layer to 408, this did manage to get me the colors to what seems like an acceptable saturation.
Hello. I believe I found an easier way. I was using 4K capture utility, but I did decided to tinker with OBS after watching this video. I do know there is no way to render HDR without the Studio version (paid) according to Blackmagic Design. I could be wrong. I am using the paid version of 18. My way also allows the bitrate to be adjusted to a similar number as OBS recorded in. That way a minute of 4K60FPS HDR is about 500mb instead of 10gb. So in OBS, I set everything the same as you except I choose "Rec.2100 (PQ)" in advanced color space. I record in 4k HDR 60FPS. In Davinci resolve, you shouldn't need to input color space and gamma on your clips. The data should already be there and marked correctly based on what color space and gamma you recorded in. For my PQ recording, it is set to "Rec.2020" and "Rec.2100 ST2084". The only thing you need to change in Davinci is the timeline color space. Set it to "Rec.2100 ST2084". I was using "Rec.2020ST2084 1000 nits" and it looked great, but so does the other option. My monitor and tv do 400 nits and 700 nits respectively. I have more to test lol. Rendering is also much simpler and my way allows you to watch the video before uploading it. Format "MP4". Codec "H.265". Encoder "GPU", for me "NVIDIA". You need the paid version anyway and GPU is the best option. Encoding Profile "main 10". No need to change the advanced settings as they are already set to match the timeline. Set everything else to preference. I like to go very slow and high quality with a full two pass. I am no expert, but it sounds the best. I leave the data levels to auto so the color space will be limited as limited works on more devices. Then render. Breakdown on things I do differently. OBS - Same as you except Settings/Advanced/Color space/Rec.2100(PQ) Davinci - File/Project Settings/Color Management/Timeline Color Space/Rec.2100 ST2084 Davinci Deliver Tab below Format - MP4 Codec - H.265 Encoder - GPU (example NVIDIA) Encoding Profile - Main10 Set rest to preference. I recommend Advanced Settings/Data Levels be left on "auto". Thanks for the video. It's how I learned the correct way to record HDR in OBS. Have an awesome day!

2:14 Input Gamma selection is no longer on that context menu in 18.1.1 (studio), lstill looking around to find new location. but i think its gets covered off in the further steps. testing with a HDR mode clip from AC: Valhalla on a samsung HDR 27" 240hz monotor and a LG REd Eagle HDR monitors.
I know this comment is a year old, but it is still there. Things are just in separate submenus now so it's not a giant list to scroll through. The same options are there, just all the BM options are in a BM submenu, rec2020 in their own submenu, etc. If you don't have "use separate color space and gamma" checked in the project settings you won't see a separate input gamma section.
Elgato's 4K60S+ external capture card can also capture in HDR. The setup is a lot more finnicky since that takes care of the gaming video but audio has to be plugged into the device, so I just record the audio separately and add it in post... but I digress... What I wanted to say is that OBS captures HDR in that very specific color space and gamut (I'm no expert, not even really an amateur, I'm know very little about the subject, but I think I worded it correctly), and for those of us who capture HDR game footage on 4K60S+ and THEN edit in Davinci Resolve, the color space settings should be different, but the problem is... I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY SHOULD BE!
Dude, I just wanted to stop back by and say THANK YOU SO MUCH! The last few weeks I've searched everywhere for the correct method on how to do this for the free version of Davinci with no success. I think this might be the only video on the entire Internet with the correct solution! :D This video is very special and deserves at least 100,000 views - precise, interesting and informative. Thank you so much buddy, keep up the great content and hard work, and I'm very happy to to become a Subscriber of your channel :)
Hi This is truly one of the best video which explains complete process of recording to exporting... I have a query... I wanted to upload my gameplay videos to RUclips... everything is fine... but when my video is like 1-1.5 hrs long... and when I export using DNxHR HQX 10-bit.. the size of the output video is very huge... like in the range of 400+GB for 1.5 hours video... So, I wanted to ask whether is there any other option instead of DNxHR HQX 10-bit which I can use so that my file size is not huge... somewhere in the range of 50-100 GBs and still the RUclips recognizes and creates a HDR version of my video. Further out of curiosity, how long will the RUclips tentatively take to make my video HDR ready... like 12 hours, 1 day or 7-10 days
I believe H265 encoding has support for HDR and should have much smaller file sizes, but you'll have to look into it. As for how long it takes RUclips... who can really say. Unfortunately they don't make HDR much of a priority, so for longer videos like yours I would guess at least a couple days
It is not possible to record HLG footage from a "Video Game Source" in OBS. You need to use PQ. OBS does not offer HLG if you add a "video game" source in OBS
After setting up OBS, will it show HDR in the OBS preview window or will I need to send the file over to Final Cut to preview it? My setup: Sony Mirrorless camera HDMI out > HDMI in DeckLink Quad HDMI Recorder > OBS recording
Nice video man! I was in the same boat as you all of my OBS videos recorded in HDR using Nvenc HEVC (H265) are washed out in Davinci Resolve Studio. My only question is, why did you put REC 709 in the Output Color Space (Color Space Transform effect)? Isn't it supposed to be REC 2020 too? I thought REC 709 is not HDR? thx
I don't have the video pulled up rn to reference, but iirc setting the output to 709 is for the purposes of monitoring your grade, and you can switch back at the end of your project to export in HDR.
You can avoid the adjustment clip workaround by simply using Resolve color management. It’s part of the free version of Resolve and fully covered in the manual in the section on color management.
The technique outlined in this video already uses Color Management; the adjustment clip in this example is used specifically to preview your grades in SDR before exporting them in HDR. This was simpler and easier (as well as more accurate), in my opinion, than changing the color management settings back and forth
It takes far fewer clicks to simply adjust the output color space. Less chance for error as well. But to each their own. BTW - the output space shouldn’t be set to HLG(scene), that’s a source color space. The output color space for HDR display is simply REC2100 HLG.
@@jamielej I got funny-looking results using Rec 2100 HLG, My understanding is that HLG (Scene) is virtually identical to ARIB-yadda yadda yadda that's hard to remember and lined up with the footage I had 😅 My biggest concern with changing the color space back and forth was the grades and corrections I applied while in REC709 completely broke when applied to the HDR footage, where the adjustment clip/CST method retained the corrections between HDR/SDR
@@TheNeatwork For HLG camera sources, REC2100 HLG(scene) is the correct input color space. The correct output space for RUclips HDR is REC2100 HLG. ARIB is not relevant at all here. Use Davinci Intermediate Wide Gamut as the timeline color space and the grades will not “break” when you switch output spaces. Though a trim pass is always necessary whenever moving between HDR and SDR. No single grade is going to be perfect for both without either manual user intervention or an automated tonemap based on Dolby Vision analysis shot by shot (and even then colorists manually trim the result in nearly all cases) In general, your method of grading while viewing only SDR to then deliver HDR is not advised since is not possible to see what the highlights and more saturated areas are doing in REC2020 HDR while working viewing only an SDR image. You’re essentially grading blind. The Color Management section of the Resolve manual is very well written and highly recommended reading.
@@TheNeatwork I am uploading a video now. If you could take a look at it later when it's done, and give me your thoughts, it would be greatly appreciated. I have obs at 2100hlg and set all resolve settings as u said. Sdr looks dull to me, I'm spoiled...lol.
Exporting a 4K60HDR Gameplay video following your procedure did the job. Thanks. Just 1 issue. The exported file (18 min long) was around 225 GB (the source file is about 50min long and 61 GB in size).
So I have now recorded a video with a length of just 20 seconds using OBS. Your settings are exactly identical to mine (if you want to stream and record 4k HDR, you MUST set it that way) Then I edited the file in davinci resolve (NOT studio) 18.6.4 Build 6 - latest update. I set everything up step by step exactly the way you did it and then I had it rendered. My result is a 5 gigabyte file that cannot be played correctly with VLC. What I mean by that is the following: VLC plays audio/video but only the video file stutters. Audio is fine. what went wrong during rendering? Or is it VLC?
I uploaded it unlisted, as was your suggestion. It works perfectly (sound like picture) only one error - RUclips doesn't show me HDR under quality settings When I look on RUclips under My Channel -> Manage Videos -> Content -> Click on Details then I see only 4K completed under the image on the right. Shouldn't HDR be there too? Oh and one more thing, which video player should I use so that I can see in advance what my results look like? Just load it into Davinci? the rendered file@@TheNeatwork
@@Maehonii It does take RUclips a while to process HDR, and I can't remember off the top of my head if YT shows it processing or not. I'd typically just open the render in Resolve to see playback, and you can always check the file properties to make sure it rendered with the correct HDR color space
Are you recording to the format MKV? If so, you must remux your recordings in OBS 28 to MP4 before Resolve will recognize it, unless you have Resolve Studio which supports MKV. Sorry if that wasn't clear!
One issue I'm having with HDR is that the screen goes black when I change my capture card (elgato 4k60 pro) image to Rec. 2100(PQ), this only happens when the Xbox SX resolution is 4k 60fps HDR. When I change back to 1440p, I'm able to see the image at rec. 2100(PQ). Any suggestions? The Xbox resolution is 4K UHD to be exact, that might have something to do with it.
Sorry friend, I'm unfamiliar with working with higher-end capture cards. It sounds like the 4K60 Pro doesn't support 4k and HDR at the same time, which I could not find clarification for on the product page.
@@TheNeatwork It only allows to me to change the image to rec 2100 PQ when my xbox resolution is set to 120hz (either 1080p 120hz, or 1440p 120hz) if it's is set at 60hz, it shows the black screen again.
@@TheNeatwork My only fix is by setting the resolution at 120hz, change image to rec 2100 PQ, then set the resolution back to 4k. It would still allow me to see the screen at 4k. But once I close obs it will show me a black screen again, meaning that I have to do that step again to make it work. Kinda frustrating but it's what it is.
Great video, but Davinci removed the color space option when right-clicking clips, so I couldn't get this to work. Also you should mention you cant use Resolve in fullscreen because it will automatically put your screen back to SDR.
Well, if you want to upload videos to RUclips in 4k HDR 60fps, you need a bit rate of 200k - cant go any lower otherweise its NOT 60fps or 4k@@TheNeatwork
@@Maehonii Bitrate doesn't drop frames, pixels, or color information, only the amount of data used to convey each, and every codec produces wildly different results at the same bitrate.
I will tell you what isn't simple. Trying to use Premiere to export an HDR game video. Its almost as if the metadata gets stripped off no matter how you encode it (with HDR settings). RUclips is like nope. No HDR for you. Might have to switch to resolve to not deal worth premiere breaking the metadata flag.
@@TheNeatwork thanks for the reply. I am going to try Resolve. Flight Simulator (to me, I know it's subjective) looks amazing in HDR (at least the 800nit or whatever HDR my Lg OLED can do). Just for something I can show my friends how cool it looks. I'll keep on trying. Thanks 🙂
