Hi Jim,

Really excited you're looking into this.

Our main priorities with using OCIO in RV would definitely being able to combine several transformations into 'Looks' that work for per-shot CDLs and LUTs, as well as being able to use the OCIO definition to set the context in which a  LUT is applied (Which we've been using the prelut for lin2log as an example)

For Nuke and 3D apps, we're using show definitions to communicate colorspace, although for the most part we are keeping to a complete linear workflow on the artist side.

Best,
Tzuen

Are you using sony's method of incorporating that meta data into the file name? Right now its looking like rv's source_setup would need to handle this but I'm probably missing something.
