2 Create a new project and add the DCP/IMF package you need to modify to the Media
Pool. If a dialog appears asking if you want to change your timeline frame rate to match
the incoming media, click Change to make your project match the media.
3 Create a timeline from the composition playlist (XML) within the imported DCP or IMF
by right clicking the imported package in the media pool and choosing “Create New
Timeline Using Composition Playlist” from the contextual menu.
Right-clicking an imported IMF or DCP clip in the Media
Pool reveals a command to make a new timeline using the
composition playlist in the contextual menu
4 The New Timeline dialog has an “Import Dolby Vision Project Settings” checkbox.
When it’s turned on, clicking Create will do the following:
a. Dolby Vision will be enabled in the Color Management panel of the Project Settings,
and the Mastering Display menu will be set to match that of the IMF package.
b. If Resolve Color Management (RCM) is not active, the Timeline Color Space will be
set to match the Dolby Vision metadata. However, if RCM is already enabled, the
user must manually set this by turning on “Use Separate Color Space and Gamma,”
and changing the Timeline settings to P3-D65” and “ST.2084” respectively.
5 Creating the Timeline will import Dolby Vision metadata (if applicable). This will allow a
Tone Mapping preview to be seen on the Color page that uses the original metadata.
Dolby Vision metadata will be imported if
present when importing an IMF
Once import is complete, all video and audio clips from the DCP or IMF appear within a
new bin with the name of the package. The resulting timeline will be identified via its
icon as a DCP/IMF timeline.
