Hi,

I converted a mov file with your tool. With the default settings and with some other settings. Afterwards I played bove files with the VLC media Player on Windows. The video looks definetly different. So somethiong has happend. But once I upload the files to YouTube, bove videos look normal, non HDR. I watched them on my phone which is able to play HDR content on YouTube. But they are not HDR. In the resolution settings it says 1080p and not HDR 1080p. Why?

Ah, you need a 10 bit file. Not an 8 bit file. It would be nice if you would add an error message to your software. It would save time.
