[Avid-L2] Adobe Media Encoder Scaling DPX legal level when encoding to ProResHQ

 

I have been successfully exporting 10bit DPX legal level out of Avid for IMF creation.  I find if I take the DPX file into Adobe Media Encoder and encode to a ProResHQ 2K from 4096x-2160 DPX the results are scaled Full Range to Legal resulting in an incorrect level in the ProResHQ file.  If I ama link into avid and add a legal to Full Range source setting scaler it looks fine.

In investigating I found I can right click on the file and there is a source setting which lists Full Range, Video and a few others.  I thought I had struck gold and finally found the answer to my various scaling issues in AME but when I clicked video and it displayed converted white point and black point at 235 and 16 it seems like what I wanted but the results are all whacked choosing anything other than full range.  It appears the source setting is for Cineon files.  I'm just starting to google but can anyone shed light on what the spirit of the source settings choices are?  the is AME 2015.
