Prob with loading simulation profile on MacOS

[Wire]

Hi guys,

I am working with new Dell UP2516D and want to compare a custom alignment with an Apple supplied Display P3 profile (or Adobe supplied Image P3).

When I chose either of these in the Verify > Simulation profile menu, it accepts the choice, then when I hit Measurement report…. it barfs with:

“[Error 2]No such file or directory:” (blank)

This happens for several other standard profiles including, Apple-supplied ITU-709.icc and old Adobe VideoPAL.icc. Maybe others too.

The Display P3 and ITU-709 files come from MacOS Mojave 10.14.6
The Image P3 and VideoPAL files come from Adobe

I thought maybe it’s a permissions thing, but other files from same sources in same folders do not generate this error.

TIA

P.S. I appreciate the DTP94+Dell UP2516D referenced to i1 colorimeter correction support. Makes my setup work great!

Disable device link profile.

Looking at the profiles you attached, those are ICCv4, and ArgyllCMS doesn’t support them. Just use the provided profiles, there’s no need to use Apple ones (they are also not adhering to spec, because they encode a non-D50 whitepoint despite having a non-unity ‘chad’ chromatic adaptation tag, which is an error).

I was looking for a verification / simulation pass of my WCG custom config against  Display P3, which looks not interchangeable with DisplayCal-supplied DCI-P3 D65, due to gamma?

No big deal

[Florian Höch]

In native P3 mode, your display will likely still follow a 2.2 gamma, not the sRGB tone curve of the Display P3 profile.

This Dell’s P3 mode appears to be the cinema variant.

I called in native mode to sRGB TRC.

I can’t really argue this makes sense, beyond it’s sort of Display P3 plus.

I’m still figuring this stuff out and playing around.

Thanks for help
