I'm working with a video file that I'm exporting from AfterEffects to Media Encoder to render. The file needs to be in HDR, but whenvever I check the HDR button in the HEVC encoding settings, it causes my video to render much darker. Regardless if viewed on an HDR TV or a computer monitor, the dark colors come out black, and the light colors come out dim and dingy. Unchecking the HDR box causes it to look like the pre-processed AE file, so I've isolated it to that one setting.
My questions is if this is a known issue, and if anyone knows of a way to compensate, short of cranking up the levels and saturation in the original AfterEffects file?
