If everything is working correctly, the LightSpace dialog in DaVinci Resolve should show the word “Connected,” and the Network Manager dialog in LightSpace should show that there is 1 available client/s.
You can now close the Network Manager dialog in LightSpace and follow the procedures outlined in the LightSpace CMS documentation for characterizing your display and building and exporting a display LUT (in the .cube format) that you can use as a display LUT in DaVinci Resolve. Alternately, you can export a display LUT from LightSpace that can be loaded onto an outboard video processing device.
5 When you’re finished, click Disconnect in the LightSpace dialog, and then click Cancel to close the window.
Viewing Broadcast Safe Exceptions
Choosing View > Display Broadcast Safe Exceptions sets the Color Page Viewer to show a false-color overlay that indicates in blue the regions of the picture that violate the currently selected broadcast safe level in the Color Management panel of the Project Settings.
Areas of the image that violate broadcast safe are highlighted in blue
More information about broadcast safe limiting in the Color Management panel of the Project Settings see Chapter 127, “Automated Grading Commands and Imported Grades.”
Comparing Clips in the Viewer
The ability to compare different clips to one another is an important part of the color correction process. DaVinci Resolve provides three different ways of doing so. You can use the Gallery to display two clips for split screen comparison. You can also use different reference modes to see a timeline clip or reference movie directly as part of a split screen comparison. Finally, you can use the Split Screen controls to display multi-frame arrangements in the Viewer.
