DJI D-log Editing with Final Cut Pro for iPad

Hey Gents,

Is the a way to edit DJI Video with D-log format using Final Cut Pro for iPad?

Is there a way to have presets like in the Mac Version?

Or is there some Plugins?

Thanks for your Support.

Kind Regards

Issue with iPhone ProRes Log (HDR) footage. My XDR display shows the footage correctly when scrubbed in the Browser (i.e. it looks like HDR), but when played from the timeline it looks wrong (i.e. like a clipped, non-tone mapped SDR) My XDR display shows the footage correctly when scrubbed in the Browser (i.e. it looks like HDR), but when played from the timeline it looks wrong (i.e. like a clipped, non-tone mapped SDR) MY SETUP I'm running macOS Sequoia 15.0.1 and Final Cut Pro 10.8.1 on a Mac Studio M2 Ultra. My main monitor is the non-XDR Apple Studio Display, which is of course not HDR compatible, so for XDR I'm using my 12.9" M2 iPad Pro in Sidecar mode (set to Reference Mode in the iPad Settings). I have set Final Cut Pro Secondary Display mode to Viewer, which puts the viewer on the iPad screen. My Library is set to Wide Gamut HDR. BROWSER VIEW ON XDR – CORRECT I've imported a bunch of ProRes Log shot on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. On import, the LUT has been set automatically to Apple Log. When I scrub over these clips in the Browser, they are displayed correctly on the viewer on the iPad. The clips really pop! They jump out from the dimmed Reference Mode with what appears to be HDR tonal range, with a higher level of brightness and highlights than standard SDR footage. It looks fantastic. So far, so good! TIMELINE VIEW ON XDR – INCORRECT The problem is playing back this footage from the timeline. It just looks wrong. It has the appearance of clipped SDR. Not even a tone mapped SDR. Again to clarify, it looks correct on the iPad in the browser, but not on the timeline. This makes me think that the Project (timeline) setting is wrong? I created the project by dragging one of these ProRes Log clips down to the timeline area to create a project using the settings from the clip, which set the Color Space to "Wide Gamut - Rec 2020". I even tried setting this to "Wide Gamut HDR - Rec 2020 PQ" and "Wide Gamut HDR - Rec 2020 HLG" but this made no difference. It still looks like clipped SDR footage. The color conform for the clip on the timeline is set to Automatic, but again, no other manual setting looks correct either. I'm stumped. Any help is appreciated! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Quality of video reduced in Finalcut Pro X export Hi, I am trying to find out how to export video files in the same quality as the original source video. I am filming on a DJI Osmo pocket 3, 4KUHG HLD mode, bitrate of 110mb/s. I am using a Macbook Air, M1 silicon, processing in Wide Colour Gamut using 2020HLG transcoding. The output file, 4kUHD HLG, computer, even set for better quality, is 45mb/s. Is there a way to up this export bitrate to match the source?

There is a DJI D-Log built in LUT. I don’t use DJI but I assume this is the same as in the computer version. You can do a free trial before subscribing so maybe try it yourself and see if it works for you. You can’t use custom LUTs.
