HDR to SDR Tone Mapping Not Working

[jdazzle44 7]

I have been trying to get tone mapping working for the last few days but no luck. 

I have attached my settings, the log file and a picture from the movie showing the washed out 1080p transcode vs 4k direct.

Another note is that VAAPI does not work for me.

Hi there, why do you think it's not working?

The colors looks washed out compared to the 4k version.

I'm interested also in this, I had similar results regarding the tone mapping part when I was testing it last week. I don't know if the example screenshots are representative of the expected output of the tone mapping functionality.

I gave up on it and decided to keep HD version of my movies instead.

Your log indicates that tone mapping is happening. 

You can install the "Diagnostics Plugin" from the plugin catalog to configure tone mapping parameters (the default settings are not always the best choice).
