THANKS!
😃 To all the wonderful people who have supported VideoRevealed 😃

I am finding that even with the video limiter that there is a narrow band in the middle of the RGB waveform scopes that shows the video peaks beyond 100 whether I set the compression at 3%, 5% or 10%. The majority of the footage is capped but the same bands do not change. This is 4k HDR footage in a Rec. 709 sequence that I am exporting for broadcast.

[@LosFilmicos]

Hi!! Thanks fo rthe awesome video! Question, is there a effect or some way to do exactly what the video limiter does BUT instead of reducing the highlights, incresing just the clipped blacks that are waye below the 0 IRE? I am in trouble right now bc of this

[@johnstanowski9489]

wow, just what I need! Which Clip Level should I use for broadcast and cable tv commercials?

[@ritwiksondhi]

Usually for 8 bit it is 16-235, and for 10 bit: 64-940.

Hi colline you are the best teacher!

[@VideoRevealed]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it.

[@ianallardyce4222]

Always the best explanations

[@tobleroni]

Colin, your green screen keying is fantastic

I had noticed when using this filter the chroma wasn't changing in my vectorscope. You mentioned that this video limiter doesn't affect chroma because it doesn't apply to digital video broadcasts. Since the US now broadcasts digital video, does that mean that I don't need to worry about chroma levels anymore? Providing my luminance levels are legal, can I just adjust my chroma by eye and go with that? Are there instances where chroma matters anymore for delivery of content? If chroma does still matters for delivery sometimes, can you suggest a plugin for premiere for a limiter that affects chroma?

[@VideoRevealed]

The Adobe Color Scientist that I talked to said Y mattered only for 601 and not new HD broadcast standards. These were the notes I was going by: Clip Level: Specifies the max output value in IRE units. The default is 103 IRE. Corresponding ranges in IRE, 8-bit RGB and Y are as follows: 100 = IRE 0 to 100, RGB 0 to 255, Y 16 to 235. SMPTE limited range. 103 = IRE -3 to 103, RGB -8 to 263, Y 9 to 242 105 = IRE -5 to 105, RGB -13 to 268, Y 5 to 246. EBU R103 "Preferred". 109 = IRE -7 to 109, RGB -17 to 277, Y 1 to 254. SDI limits

Hi Colin great video. What would be the best settings in the video limeter, and what settings would you use for exporting for broadcast?

[@VideoRevealed]

It depends on the Broadcaster. Each will have their specific specs so you just follow that.

[@amberbeaton2989]

Hi Colin thanks for this video. You mention at the end that KZbin uploaded dont need to worry about this. I have a video with heavy reds in it (the colour not the camera) and I get major pixelation (chroma subsampling) when uploading it to KZbin and social media. Is this fixed with the limiter?

[@VideoRevealed]

The best way to fix that is with curves. Try Hue vs Sat. Here's a tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4a6dJqwqah7Zrs

[@Kbrunic]

Hi everyone! Thanks 4 this video amazing data! Here is a question.. they are asking me for this LUMA RANGE 16-235, CHROMA RANGE 16-240, how can I get this? video limiter which one? also don´t know how to do the Chroma... thanks!

[@ChannelBecauseIHave2]

I noticed that your Lumetri scopes were set to Clamp 8 bit. I usually operate with mind unclamped on the Float setting, for a truer reading of the signal. Thoughts? Also, what about using this as an analysis tool on top of a Lumetri color adjustment, where you then make adjustments to the grade to get the video closer to spec without smashing it with the Limiter? Gives you more control over the adjustments, and then the Limiter can take care of smaller, less noticeable stuff like little specular highlights.

[@VideoRevealed]

8-bit is going to give you the same as broadcast so it's safer. Yes you can manipulate the color in the Lumetri panel before applying the Video Limiter.

[@NippesPablo]

finally a great video to help me fix my problem, thanks!!

[@VideoRevealed]

Awesome!

[@jimb1843]

What Premiere Pro CC audio and video limiter settings should be used by USA local Public, Educational & Government Community Cable TV Stations (PEG Stations)? Currently most Cable TV broadcasters (Comcast/Spectrum/Charter) will only broadcast PEG Station programming in SD and not HD or Full HD.

[@VideoRevealed]

Each broadcaster has their own set of specifications so contact them directly.

[@YASIR.K]

Great Video. Thanks ... 🍺

[@VideoRevealed]

You're welcome.

[@spl1949]

I'm editing footage and the RBG Parade is moving wildly up and down. Not the colors themselves but the actual numbers on the sides. I checked the clamp signal box and it stopped but is there something wrong with the software? Thanks

[@VideoRevealed]

Sounds like a bug to me.

[@songhavenofficial]

If I'm uploading footage to services like Adobe stock this is what I would use so I could say that it's broadcast safe, correct? Thanks for making these "unglamorous" videos too. Very technical subjects are not always popular.

[@Gilles_at_VIDEOGRAM]

Stephen, My advice would be to leave the footage as is and let the end user compress or color it to his needs. Same for sound: I hate it when talents send me compressed or equalized audio.

[@VideoRevealed]

I agree with the other comment; do not run the Video Limiter on footage for Adobe Stock. A pleasing full range video is better as it shows your footage in a good light and it allows the user to grade it anyway they want or use it as is.

[@RaviKumar-qh5pe]

How correct color cast and white balance in premiere pro ....With single color cast and mixed color cast ex magenta with green....

[@VideoRevealed]

Global white balance can be fixed easily: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZjVZmmZqK1oh7M But what you're asking for is isolated color correction. You'll need HSL secondary or multiple Lumetri effects with masks. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIW4iXaBhM2pfsU

[@Dariusz_K44]

Which preset is best for the HDTV i50?

[@VideoRevealed]

If this is for broadcast color limiting, I'd ask the broadcaster you're sending to for their specifications. They typically have a document to share for people submitting media.

[@MarcoGiolo]

I use Premiere Pro CC 2017. The video limiter effect doesn't have IRE settings, it's different... How can I be sure that my video signal is between 7,5 and 100 IRE by useing the obsolete version?

[@VideoRevealed]

Sorry, I'm just concentrating on effects in the latest version.

[@MarcoGiolo]

@@VideoRevealed My work was broadcasted yesterday on TV. I couldn't set the Premiere's video limiter so I exported it with the HDTV16-235 video profile by After Effects. Finally the luminance of the video was ok (no overexposure or underexposure), but crominance wasn't good (the saturation was too high)... Also the audio had problems (it seemd there was an audio compressor)...

[@charleswaldorf9640]

Do not work with Clamp Signal on! To work with Clamp Signal is the same as when you work with a voltmeter and 220v and you push 12v Clamp Signal. Whant you push the wire?

[@VideoRevealed]

Ok. Good to know.

[@jeffanimator]

Thanks!

[@VideoRevealed]

You bet!

[@jorgerodrigopinedacruz5052]

what abouts the blacks? the video limiter works on the same way

[@VideoRevealed]

The Video Limiter does not affect the blacks. Use the Lumetri effect for that.

[@spacemountain3033]

what about this? How would you approach this requirement: " When viewed on a waveform monitor in RGB mode, all of the program video signals should lie within the range of -5% and +105%. This equates to -35mV and +735mV, respectively. The resultant luminance signal (Y) should lie within the range of -1% and +103% (-7mV and +721mV)"

[@VideoRevealed]

That's beyond me. Sorry.

[@m1nt9reen]

put it on the 103 setting (or 100 if you like, no one's gonna see anything above that anyway), compression optional but I wouldn't go beyond 3 or 5% myself, and I wouldn't have it at all on any kind of fictional or advertising material

[@yeyeletmy]

Thks!

[@VideoRevealed]

You're welcome.

[@focuspulling]

You're adamant that this is only relevant to broadcast, nothing else. But elsewhere I see it being very, very relevant to DVD and Blu-ray mastering.

[@VideoRevealed]

Yes, that would be a good use for it.

[@RenLuuk]

Ok. Take your advice. Not worrying about this then 😆

[@VideoRevealed]

That's right Karen. One less thing to worry about.
