[Avid-L2] How to properly handle ProRes 4444 (HD1080P) in Avid SNDX 6.5.4.7?

 

I have received a "Graded" show as a ProRes 4444 file.  When I ama link in Avid SNDX 6.5.4.7 the levels are illeagal, pretty much like RGB in 709 space.  When I right click to get to source settings it says there are no source settings on this clip.  The final delivery is ProResHQ 422.  Of course there are not color bars on the file.  God forbid I have a chance to actually accurately access the signal path.  ;-(

I suppose I can try it on my 8.3.1 startup drive and use some of the new options.  Can someone give me a heads up on the proper way to accurately transcode this ProRes 4444 file to ProResHQ 422.  I have to add an open title so I will be working in Avid.

I'm thinking I could just export to ProResHQ 422 in QT Pro 7.  I'm trying to use the most accurate workflow to maintain the grade.  I don't want to just add an Avid color correction to make it legal.  This will be for Netflix delivery.
