  • Is it possible to give the vray framebuffer different profiles?

    I have a problem with the color managment of the vray framebuffer

    The LWF is perfekt:
    The textures (working space ECI_RGBV10.ICC) are equal to the renderings ("rgb without tags")

    The Problem:
    vray framebuffer is different to the rendering ("rgb without tags") in Adobe Photoshop.
    The rendering with srgb is equal to the vray framebuffer
    But I need the rendering as rgb without tags alternatively as ECI_RGBV10.ICC

    srgb is a small workingspace and we need a big working space.

    Is it possible to give the vray framebuffer different profiles? (Such like "rgb without tags" or "ECI_RGB")

    Thank you

    Not sure I quite follow; what are your color mapping settings?

      If I've understood this correctly what you want to do is tag your renders with your monitor's colour profile?
      First open up your render in PS, then go to Edit --> Assign Profile... and give it your monitor profile (which I'm assuming you created when you calibrated your monitor). Then immediately convert the image to your working space (typically either sRGB or Adobe RGB) by going to Edit --> Convert to Profile... and choose whatever space you like to work in. You can write a quick action in Photoshop to automate this process.
      You will now have a render in PS that looks exactly the same as the VRay frame buffer

        Thank you very much. You understood me correctly. The problem is, that I dont want to change the Profile in Photoshop. The Renderings with rgb without tags or ECI-RGB in Photoshop is equal to the Proofs and the cmyk-prints. If I change the profil in Photoshop, I see wrong colors, they are not equal to the print-products.
        Perhaps I have to calibrate my monitor to the vray-frame buffer.
        In Maxon cinema advanced render you can choose a profile for the framebuffer. So the framebuffer and the photoshop is equal even if you choose a big working space.

          Hallo Vlado,

          The renderings in Photoshop are different to the vray framebuffer. My Monitor is calibrated. The Renderings I see in Photoshop are equal to the cmyk-proofs. If I take a smaller working space, such as srgb, the renderings in the framebuffer and in photoshop looks equal. But the print products are different. And I go from a big working space in a small and get a less good quality when I convert to cmyk.
          Is it possible to choose for the framebuffer a Profile?Click image for larger version

            Well, newer versions of V-Ray allow you to choose an ICC profile for the VFB, maybe it will be useful.

              Hello Vlado,

              oh I think it will be usefull. Do I have to wait, or is it possible since vray 2.0?
              Thank you.

                It will be included with the next service pack in December, but if you wish, please email me to vlado@chaosgroup.com and I can get you a test build so that you can tell me if it works ok.

                Best regards,

                  Sorry for being a bit thick, but exactly how do I do this?
