After transferring RAW video files to a different machine (with Cineform Prospect HD installed), editing is fine but the .look presets from SI-2K are lost.

Is there a way to uphold them in post on a different machine than the one used for the acquisition?

I capture footage with a laptop, but edit on the desktop.

Thanks.

When you transfer your footage make sure you transfer the .look files as well.
On the new machine double click on each of the .look files, these are then installed on this machine.

Thanks Rohan.

I did that originally, but no cigar.

Apparently Prospect HD does not support RAW metadata, including .look settings. (but it does support playback of the rAW video itself.)

So now I'm looking into upgrading to Prospect 4K...

What are you using as codec/NLE/compositing soft?

Solved! See here:
