The original question here was if it was sane to use Color Navigator in VM since Eizo provides only RedHat support. It’s getting more and more complicated Thank you for you answer. You are pretty much on your own in investigating and verifying that things will work as you hope they will. You can’t assume anything about how a VM handles display values, per channel LUTs, instrument access or any number of other things that may have an impact on setting up a color managed system.

Using profiling your aim should be to maximize the native gamut of the display rather than restrict it to a single colorspace, so that the color management system can display any number of source (i.e. For a desktop system such a calibration approach is generally a disadvantage, because it is much less flexible than a profiling approach. What it means there is configuring the display hardware to emulate a particular standard colorspace.

film & video) it has a different meaning. I’ve explained the desktop/ICC profile system meaning above, but in other contexts (i.e. So the a mechanism available for this that doesn’t rely on being able to computer control a displays settings is per channel graphic card LUTs.Ī further point of confusion is that the term “calibration” has many meanings. The practical aspect is that (mainly for historical reasons) typical ICC based color management systems assume relative colorimetric color conversions, so things like white point and brightness are not able to be set by the color management pipeline. The technical advantage is that per channel LUTs are more detailed than 3D Luts, so a display can be made to behave in a more easily/accurately characterized way. General computer systems don’t have this available, so they use what is available to alter the display behavior - graphics card per channel LUTs. Only specialized systems have the ability to change the state of the display in hardware. Maybe I could ask for a comment here, please. There is a lot of questions regarding this topic to my surprise. They did not access card and change anything thus CM in Guest is not working.

I read that video card drivers are kind of passthru.

So services like calibration of display would also had no sense since the technician won’t install software on client’s PC but rather use he’s own with dedicated SW. If profiling calibrated monitor (which actually is a step in CN after calibration) produces system (PC+monitor) depended ICC profile then it negates the idea of the ICC which describes only device (here monitor) capabilities.įor calibration LUTs are written into the monitor itself by calibration software (CN) and OSD in monitor is locked so ICC describes that particular state of monitor.īesides I can purchase verified monitor with additional services like calibration and ICC profile (also could include warming up for several days to see if display is uniform and no bad pixels appear). I just hope I don’t but can’t be really sure.
