SDR Output Primaries
Select the output color gamut for SDR rendering. The currently active primaries are highlighted in the menu.
Available Options
| Primaries | Internal Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BT.709 | bt709 | Rec. 709 -- standard HD/SDR gamut |
| Display P3 | displayp3 | Display P3 -- wide gamut for modern displays |
| BT.2020 | bt2020 | Rec. 2020 -- ultra-wide gamut HDR standard |
Default: BT.709
Recommended Settings
Use BT.709 for standard SDR displays. Select Display P3 if your monitor covers the P3 gamut (common on modern Mac displays and high-end monitors). BT.2020 is only appropriate if your display actually supports Rec. 2020 primaries; selecting it on a narrower-gamut panel will produce over-saturated output.
