How to change to rec2020 waveform? Stuck in rec709 with PQ Library, Project, v-log

Hi guys.

I've searched and searched and cannot figure out why I can't get a proper rec2020 waveform to appear in FCPX. I have the library set to Rec2020, the project set to 2020. I tried importing footage captured internally (GH5 VLog-L)) and am using v-log captured on a Ninja Inferno in Prores. From what I have seen/read, FCPX should automatically switch the waveform to match the project, but it does not, and on two different computers, with up to date versions of the software, I am stuck at rec709.

Also, can anyone tell me why the VLog-L clips show up in the inspector as rec-709, when they are actually VLog, V Gamut? I have seen tutorials where people are happily editing vLog-L from the GH5 in HDR Rec2020PQ with a rec2020PQ waveform, but I cannot repeat it, and canot seem to change the waveform manually.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As a follow up, any tips on how to use my Ninja inferno as a HDR reference monitor hooked up to my iMac Pro would also be appreciated.

Thanks!

Figured it out. If anyone wants an explanation let me know.

Sure, what did you find out?

You have to select all the clips , and use Color Profile Override" in the settings to change it to Rec 2020 PQ. For some reason FCPX thinks V-Log is rec709, when it's not. It's v Gamut (wide gamut).
