<p>I suffered from the exact same problem. What you can do (what is a tedious process) is to convert all your hdr files to sdr files as shown in this video with vlc: <div class="youtube-embed"><div>

<p>I'm importing Samsung Galaxy Note 10 plus recorded videos with following codec information to the premiere pro CC v13 (windows) and the imported video looks over-exposed with incorrect gamma.</p>

<blockquote>

<p>Video looks normally when playing on VLC media player or on the phone. I have installed kLite Mega codec pack 14.4.5 on my computer. Video become somewhat normal when exposure is reduced in between (-2)-(-3). </p>

<p>If you have any clue on this or a solution appreciates a lot. Thank you.</p>
