LUT for DJI Phantom 3 Professional D-Log

What LUT would you suggest as a base for DJI Phantom 3 Professional D-Log?

I have archived several DJI Phantom 3 Professional raw footage shot with DJI's D-Log color profile (and Custom Style: Sharpness -2, Contrast -3, Saturation -2. ISO is fixed at 100. Some footage with ND 4, 8 or 16 or a polarizer).

In the past have just manually adjusted Exposure and Saturation with IMHO good results. But maybe a custom LUT as a base might be a better starting point?

I did a quick test and "D-Log to Rec709.cube" or somewhat flatter "GC_Dlog-M_to_Rec709.cube" seem OK but what built-in or other LUT would you suggest? AFAIK DaVinci Resolve has a built-in LUT for DJI but I am more familiar with FCP.

ATV4K HDR Metadata Max CLL/FALL I use the ATV4K 3rd gen as a streaming box. I noticed that some shows look very washed out (Andor on Disney+ is a good example). In troubleshooting I found that when content doesn't define HDR metadata, the ATV4K defaults to outputting HDR metadata of 4000/1000 Max CLL/FALL (definitions below). The problem with this is that 4000/1000 is a ridiculously high value. This causes the display to think that it is dealing with incredibly bright content, and it therefore lowers its brightness output to compensate. Has anybody has found a fix or workaround for this issue? MaxFALL (Maximum Frame Average Light Level) indicates the maximum value of the frame average light level (in cd/m2 or nits) of the entire playback sequence. MaxFALL is calculated by averaging the decoded luminance values of all the pixels within a frame. MaxFALL is usually much lower than MaxCLL. MaxCLL (Maximum Content Light Level) indicates the maximum light level of any single pixel (in cd/m2 or nits) of the entire playback sequence. MaxCLL is usually measured off the final delivered content after mastering. If one uses the full light level of the HDR mastering display and adds a hard clip at its maximum value, MaxCLL would be equal to the peak luminance of the mastering monitor.
