Editing 4K ProRes Atomos Ninja V Video On A Mac M1 Using LumaFusion V3
In this video I'm showing a HDR capture, edit and YouTube upload that isn't quite working fully just yet. Although the basics of this workflow may be interesting to anyone using LumaFusion, Sony PS5 or Atomos Ninja 5.
While this workflow was initially done to test BlackMagic Design's DaVinci Resolve, I thought that I would try it with LumaFusion.
The workflow.
The Sony PS5 is playing Call of Duty Warzone in HDR 4K 60FPS, or more precisely, 4K UHD 3840x2160 resolution at a frame rate of 59.95 frames per second. To all intent and purpose, HDR 4K 60 FPS.
The gameplay output from the PS5 is recorded using an Atomos Ninja 5, which is recording HDR 4K UHD 59.94FPS using ProRes 422 HQ which is 1768Mb/s and 10 Bit.
This HDR recording from the Ninja is then imported into a Mac M1 computer, for this example I'm using the MacBook Air M1 2020.
And finally the video editing software I'm using is LumaFusion by Luma Touch.
Inside LumaFusion I'm using a HDR project for editing the video capture file. Which is wide gamut HDR HDR10 PQ.
The final export from LumaFusion is H.265 MP4 with the same wide gamut HDR HDR10 PQ settings to match the project and timeline settings.
I've got to be honest and say that my guess is that LumaFusion is inserting metadata into the output H.265 MP4 HDR video export file. Or maybe the colour space and gamut settings simply hint to the playback device/target that the file is HDR10 PQ. In any event, YouTube does indeed recognise the file as HDR and produces two sets of dynamic range encodings, one HDR for HDR compliant playback devices and a set of SDR standard dynamic range rec.709 encodes for the vast majority of playback devices.
Like I've said. This workflow isn't complete as I'm having audio issues in LumaFusion. This is most certainly not a criticism as I'm simply stunned by what LumaFusion is capable of on Apple Silicon M1 Mac computers and its ability to not only edit ProRes on Mac M1 but to also properly handle ProRes 422 HQ HDR.
As soon as I have a final, solid workflow for this type of editing and HDR YouTube exporting with LumaFusion, I will do a workflow example.
For now, here's the 30 second HDR export example on my gaming channel www.TheGameThing.com
