Configuring a job with 3D LUTs

MediaConvert only applies color space conversions with your 3D LUTs to sets of inputs and outputs that match the settings that you specify. You can apply custom color mapping to some of your outputs, and apply default color mapping to others.

For example, you might include a 3D LUT that specifies a Rec. 601 input color space and a Rec. 709 output color space. When your job settings meet the requirements listed in the previous section, MediaConvert applies your custom color mapping for all Rec. 601 inputs that result in Rec. 709 outputs.

Specify a separate 3D LUT for each combination of input and output color space conversion that you need. In a single job, you can include up to 8 different 3D LUT settings. MediaConvert uses default color mapping for inputs or outputs with color spaces not included in your 3D LUT or job settings.

To specify a 3D LUT by using the MediaConvert console:

  1. Open the Create job page in the MediaConvert console.

  2. On the Create job page, provide transcode instructions and job settings. For more information, see Tutorial: Configuring job settings.

  3. Turn on the Color corrector preprocessor under the Encoding settings of your video output.

  4. Specify an output color space under Color space conversion.

  5. Choose Global processing under Job settings.

  6. Turn on 3D LUTs.

  7. Under Input color space, enter the color space for your input or inputs that you want to apply this 3D LUT to.

  8. (Optional) If you entered HDR10 or P3D65 (HDR) for Input color space, optionally enter a value for Input mastering luminance. Use to select inputs with a specific luminance. Enter the same value that you enter for Maximum luminance, which is under the input's Video selector, Video correction, settings.

    If you enter 0 for Input mastering luminance, or keep blank, your 3D LUT will apply to all of your HDR10 or P3D65 (HDR) inputs.

  9. Under Output color space, enter the color space for your output or outputs that you want to apply this 3D LUT to.

  10. (Optional) If you entered HDR10 or P3D65 (HDR) for Output color space, optionally enter a value for Output mastering luminance. Use to select outputs with a specific luminance. Enter the same value that you enter for Maximum luminance, which is under the output's Video settings.

    If you enter 0 for Output mastering luminance, or keep blank, your 3D LUT will apply to all of your HDR10 or P3D65 (HDR) outputs.

  11. Under 3D LUT file input, enter the URL for your 3D LUT .cube file.

To specify a 3D LUT by using the API, SDK, or Amazon Command Line Interface (Amazon CLI), include ColorConversion3DLUTSettings in your job settings JSON.

The following is an excerpt of a job settings JSON that specifies a 3D LUT for an HDR 10 to P3D65 (HDR) workflow:

{ "Settings": { "Inputs": [...], "OutputGroups": [ { "Name": "File Group", "OutputGroupSettings": {...}, "Outputs": [ { "VideoDescription": { "CodecSettings": {... }, "VideoPreprocessors": { "ColorCorrector": { "ColorSpaceConversion": "FORCE_P3D65_HDR", "MaxLuminance": 3000 } } }, "AudioDescriptions": [...], "ContainerSettings": {...} } ] } ], "ColorConversion3DLUTSettings": [ { "InputColorSpace":"HDR10", "InputMasteringLuminance": 0, "OutputColorSpace": "P3D65HDR", "OutputMasteringLuminance": 3000, "FileInput": "s3://amzn-s3-demo-bucket/HDR10_to_P3D65HDR.cube" } ] } }
