After Effects incorrect gamma or color space at DVinfo.net

I hate to post when I'm stuck, because it means I haven't figured it out for myself.

If I render out some footage from Vegas 8 using Cineform compression (NEO Scene - latest version) and import that into After Effects CS3 it is darker than the same footage using Lagarith, DNxHD or uncompressed - all of those look the same, just Cineform is different.

I'm sure I've tried every combination of switches I can, but the footage just isn't right using Cineform that way - it kind of looks like it's clipped from 16-235.

Suggestions please.

Am I really the only one having this problem?

The way round it is not use Cineform between the two apps - but that's just daft!
