Would be more optimal to define L*a*b* according to the proper formulas in a CTL and generate the to and froms from there on an EXR, using a suitable shaper to the 3D LUT.

With respect,

hmm, I tried that but it didn't line up.  I'll poke around with other lut formats maybe.  I used nuke to generate two .cube files

You can use a 3D LUT but still have a reversible colorspace transform by defining both the to-reference and from-reference transforms (I.e to reference would use lab_to_xyz.lut and from-ref would use xyz_to_lab.lut)

Hey all!

So I'm trying to get my team off of doing so much in photoshop, and have written some tools using oiio to replace a lot of the workflow.  Right now, they like to do an unsharpen mask in photoshop in LAB space on just the Lightness channel for some images.

I was hoping to represent this transform using ocio, but so far am at a loss.  I can use a MatrixTransform to get to XYZ, but I don't want to use a 3d LUT to get to LAB because it needs to be fully reversible.

Is there some magic that I'm missing, or will I just have to do this in code?

thanks!
Andrew
