Re: Keeping Hdr or even DV metadata on transcoding

That's not possible for the time being. DV (Dolby Vision) is created frame by frame, and with SVP you are creating new frames for which no DV information exists. The best way is to create the video to your liking and then add DV using DaVinci Resolve; that’s how I do it, and it looks great.
