OCIO Config Working Group Meeting Notes

• Where does linear go in the name:

  • Doug - usually say "linear srgb" and not "srgb linear"

  • Group decides: Linear sRGB. No dashes, linear first.

  • For anything with a CLF, we need to have the modern name

• Remove roles from alias list?

  • Yes please!

  • Will need to update aliases we want in new column in spreadsheet. Will not pull from Legacy Aliases

  • Make the short name the first in the aliases list?

  • It's a bit brittle, relying on the order of the aliases. Could also argue that the legacy name should also be first, as folks will need to reference that too

  • Thomas: should be a first class citizen - a function that generates a "slugified" name 

  • Group: we should go with what we have for now, and create an issue to deal with this later. Either in OCIO proper or in the config generation, to be decided

• Update role color space mapping

  • Should we include texture_paint and matte_paint in the roles? No matter what we choose, something will break for someone

  • default role: ACES-2065-1 or sRGB?

  • Doug - in a lot of ways, the default role is superseded by the file rules in OCIOv2

  • We should leave it ACES-2065-1

• ARRI LogC4: group decided to leave it out for SIGGRAPH release. Will add in a later release.

• Add pure gamma 2.2 display to ACES configs:

  • It is a built-in. 

  • Defer for now.

• Review spreadsheet

  • Exclude canonlog3 curve for now, as it will require a LUT for this release, revisit later

  • Moving sRGB texture back to utility

• Studio config: two versions - LUT-free and with external LUT references

  • Tabling for now - discuss at working group session next week to get group opinion

• Plan of attack:

  • Michael updating spreadsheet

  • merging all CLF PRs (except ARRI)

  • Thomas will rebase studio branch and generate first look config

  • Iterate!
