LUT doesn't works on resolve

[PoorAlchemist]

Hi,

I downloaded a LUT pack from here:
https://www.fujifilm-x.com/fr-fr/support/download/lut/

But the LUTs don’t work at all in DaVinci Resolve. When I apply them to a node, absolutely nothing happens.
Does it work for you?

Thanks.

P.S.: Why is there no Provia LUT?

Hello,

Delighted that you posted this as I too am having issues.  I own an X-H2S shooting in FLog2C.  I have tried a myriad of combinations of CSTs (with and without using CineonLog) and color management settings to get these FujiFilm LUTS to work.   As yet, I am yet to be successful. There must be a gap somewhere in my understanding.  Hopefully someone can help us out.

I found the solution on an other forum. You have to change the name of the LUT. The problem come from "—" caracter or I don’t remember wich on

Do you have the URL for that forum where there was a solution?

I told you the solution. Rename the LUT without special character

There are no special characters in these new LUTS.  For example, the LUT to convert FLog2C to Provia has a file name of: FLog2C_to_Provia_65grid_V100.cube

Which special character are you referring to?

I even removed the underscores.  That changes nothing.  I also placed a CST node in front of the LUT where I changed the output gamma to CineonLog. Again, no change.

Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following:

1. Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709.
2. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2.
3. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT
4. Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3.
5. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied.
6. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT.

Hope this helps others.

I found the reddit topic i refere to : 

https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/

"Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them.

I changed the file name and it works now. "
 

For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕

 

[Don Barar]

The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods.

These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut.

Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut.

If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
