I have a wrinkle to add to this. I'm getting mostly good results with the below method. However, I have what might be a unique situation…
I have a DPX sequence for a feature that was graded in Baselight in a room in which the Dolby monitor was set to a 2.4 gamma. The DPX sequence was taken to the DCP place at which they, understanding the rec709 2.4 gamma, made a DCP. We screened it yesterday at a local theater of note, and it looked very right. So…
I took that same DPX sequence, opened it in Media Composer via AMA, did the mixdown to ProRes422, exported Same as Source at Full Levels, then imported that into Encore as the asset to be used in authoring and burning a Blu ray. However…
The resulting Blu ray is much brighter than it should be. It bears not a lot of resemblance to the DCP we screened or to the look in the grading suite. It looks more like it's showing us a 2.2 gamma (and this is on a quality Samsung plasma on Standard color).
So I ask, what are we missing in terms of the 2.4 gamma relationship to this workflow? Because for the life of me, I can't get something on BRD (or in a QT, for that matter) that looks like either the grading suite or the DCP. How — how — do we get it to have the same relative gamma in our BRDs and QTs?

Lately clients have been asking for masters as ProRes and I jump between Avid settings being Legal or expanded color full range. Legal seems a bit washed out and full range seems a bit dark. In QT settings I go between gamma correction automated and none. Its a lengthy process exporting each setting and never seems to be the right match. Never for broadcast. Usually going to server or once in a while to DVD.
What is the right combo of settings to go to Pro Res?
