That's interesting, I hadn't thought of doubling up. That makes me wonder if the order of the Color Transforms is important too. My gut would be to expand to full range, like you said then add the LUT below/after that. I'll have to play a bit more.
As far as the Color Space choice at top I'm pretty sure when I had stuff ama linked it made a difference but I'll have to go back and confirm that. Just like before LUTs were an option the older source settings you could choose if the source got compressed from graphics to video and vice versa. Then any transcodes would reflect that level. I never tried to adjust the color space after that to see if it would alter the video level once transcoded. My guess is it doesn't.
On a related note I had received a .mga LUT. Is that a LUT from Apple Color. It was unusable but a google got me to a creative cow thread where someone had converted the 5D Cinestyle LUT from Technicolor. I know Arri has a LUT builder on their site IIRC and I read LUT Buddy (which I believe is free) can be used to convert LUTs to other formats. What is the LUT manipulation tool of choice? Of course my choice would be forget the LUT and light it the way you want it but with LUTs being this weeks buzz word I have to play along. I do find the Arri Log C to Rec 709 in Resolve to be quite useful like I with all LUTs would be.
