SDR to HDR
More light and colour on HDR screens.

Questions
Good to know.
Will it look right on a normal screen?
HDR10 needs an HDR display. HLG degrades gracefully on standard screens.
What file do I get?
A 10-bit H.265 MP4 at your clip's resolution and frame rate.
How long can a clip be?
In the studio, up to 10 minutes and 2 GB per run; for a longer clip it processes the first 10 minutes.
