Assign it an input colour space that matches its actual encoding (a Rec.709- or sRGB-style display/texture-class colour space present in your config) via a file rule or per-clip override, rather than relying on the default fallback; confirm the real tags with ffprobe first (C3-B232-G71-05). Expect no scene-referred headroom: converting it to ACEScg by an ordinary colour space conversion gives a working-space copy of the same display picture, which will not respond to an ACES Output Transform like camera footage does. If you need it to, use the vendor's inverse-rendered ACEScg delivery where offered (C3-B586-04), or an inverse output transform, and accept that the result is an approximation. (B) Vendor ACEScg or linear EXR: read with the stock ACEScg input transform as the vendor states. (C) Masks, depth, normals from generated pipelines: data role, never colour-transformed (consistent with C3-B541-01).
