Ultra HD Forum Guidelines Ultra HD Forum Guidelines October 19, 2020 Revision: 2.4 Ultra HD Forum 8377 Fremont Blvd., Suite 117 Fremont, CA 94538 UNITED STATES Ultra HD Forum Ultra HD Forum Guidelines, V2.4 October 19, 2020 Page ii Ultra HD Forum Ultra HD Forum Guidelines, V2.4 October 19, 2020 Foreword This new version 2.4 of the Ultra HD Forum Guidelines offers a holistic view of all the different UHD technologies. These Guidelines use the concepts of a “foundation layer” with readily available mature technologies and an “enhancement layer” with newer technologies. This work represents over five years of collaborative effort. Our new guidelines would not have been possible without the leadership of Jim DeFilippis, who represents Fraunhofer and chairs our Guidelines Work Group. All the companies that have participated in this effort over the years are listed below, but Jim has expressed his gratitude for this new revision specifically to Bill Redmann (InterDigital), Chris Seeger (Comcast/NBCU), Chris Johns (BSkyB), Richard Doherty (Dolby), Dr. George Bokuchava (Tulix), Pete Sellar (Xperi), Andrew Cotton (BBC) and Andrew Dunne (BBC). There are many updates described by Jim on the next page. I hope you will enjoy reading today. If you want to know more about Ultra HD, and how it can be deployed, I invite you to join the Ultra HD Forum. You can start by visiting our website: www.ultrahdforum.org. Thierry Fautier, President, Ultra HD Forum October 2020 Page iii Ultra HD Forum Ultra HD Forum Guidelines, V2.4 October 19, 2020 Main changes from version 2.3 to 2.4 What’s new in the Fall 2020 Version of the UHDF Guidelines document (v2.4): 1. Objective Measurement and Analysis of the Quality of Tone Mapping. A new section was added to the Guidelines, based on the work of ITU-R BT.2124, “Objective metric for the assessment of the potential visibility of color differences in television”, that explains why it is important to consider carefully the technology and methods when converting to or from different color spaces. Included is work undertaken by NBCU to evaluate a number of color conversion LUTs (Look Up Tables) to and from SDR imagery using ITU-R Rec 709 color space to HDR imagery using ITU-R Rec 2100. This is most important when deciding how best to mix formats in production as well as to provide a consistent and pleasing SDR video program derived from an HDR Wide Color program. 2. UHD Live Event Distribution over OTT. Another new section of the Guidelines which provides insight into the creation and distribution of live content, produced in UHD with HDR and Wide Color and then distributed via the Internet (OTT). While there are similarities to the existing live workflows for UHD, as documented in the Guidelines, there are unique challenges especially for distribution and the support of UHD formats by the typical end devices including IP set-top boxes, smart TV apps and mobile device apps. Description of a typical live streaming workflow, with recommendations for formats and parameters such as FEC and ‘ladder’ bandwidths, as well as the support of various formats by platforms such as Amazon Fire, Android TV, Roku 4k, Apple TV 4k, and Chromcast are detailed. Support by these platforms for the main HDR formats, PQ10, HLG10, DV (Dolby Vision), SL-HDR1 (Interdigital), and HDR 10+(Samsung) is listed. Audio codec support is also listed. 3. Annexes. The Guidelines has updated several of the Annexes as well as adding a new Annex on the support of UHD by DVB-T2. The Annexes represent new and developing technologies that are on the near horizon but have not yet fully developed or deployed. Of note is the update to ATSC 3.0 detailing the ability to carry OTT services, the update to the proposed UHD standard for Brazil and an update to the ST 2110 Annex including the efforts of AMWA (Advanced Media Workflow Association) to standardized the discovery and orchestration of ST 2110 streams.

  • An Improved SPSIM Index for Image Quality Assessment
    S S symmetry Article An Improved SPSIM Index for Image Quality Assessment Mariusz Frackiewicz * , Grzegorz Szolc and Henryk Palus Department of Data Science and Engineering, Silesian University of Technology, Akademicka 16, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland; [email protected] (G.S.); [email protected] (H.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-32-2371066 Abstract: Objective image quality assessment (IQA) measures are playing an increasingly important role in the evaluation of digital image quality. New IQA indices are expected to be strongly correlated with subjective observer evaluations expressed by Mean Opinion Score (MOS) or Difference Mean Opinion Score (DMOS). One such recently proposed index is the SuperPixel-based SIMilarity (SPSIM) index, which uses superpixel patches instead of a rectangular pixel grid. The authors of this paper have proposed three modifications to the SPSIM index. For this purpose, the color space used by SPSIM was changed and the way SPSIM determines similarity maps was modified using methods derived from an algorithm for computing the Mean Deviation Similarity Index (MDSI). The third modification was a combination of the first two. These three new quality indices were used in the assessment process. The experimental results obtained for many color images from five image databases demonstrated the advantages of the proposed SPSIM modifications.

  • Ultra HD Playout & Delivery
    Ultra HD Playout & Delivery SOLUTION BRIEF The next major advancement in television has arrived: Ultra HD. By 2020 more than 40 million consumers around the world are projected to be watching close to 250 linear UHD channels, a figure that doesn’t include VOD (video-on-demand) or OTT (over-the-top) UHD services. A complete UHD playout and delivery solution from Harmonic will help you to meet that demand. 4K UHD delivers a screen resolution four times that of 1080p60. Not to be confused with the 4K digital cinema format, a professional production and cinema standard with a resolution of 4096 x 2160, UHD is a broadcast and OTT standard with a video resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels at 24/30 fps and 8-bit color sampling. Second-generation UHD specifications will reach a frame rate of 50/60 fps at 10 bits. When combined with advanced technologies such as high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (WCG), the home viewing experience will be unlike anything previously available. The expected demand for UHD content will include all types of programming, from VOD movie channels to live global sporting events such as the World Cup and Olympics. UHD-native channel deployments are already on the rise, including the first linear UHD channel in North America, NASA TV UHD, launched in 2015 via a partnership between Harmonic and NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. The channel highlights incredible imagery from the U.S. space program using an end-to-end UHD playout, encoding and delivery solution from Harmonic. The Harmonic UHD solution incorporates the latest developments in IP networking and compression technology, including HEVC (High- Efficiency Video Coding) signal transport and HDR enhancement.

    YCbCr to RGB Considerations TM Application Note March 1997 AN9717 Author: Keith Jack Introduction Converting 4:2:2 to 4:4:4 YCbCr Many video ICs now generate 4:2:2 YCbCr video data. The Prior to converting YCbCr data to R´G´B´ data, the 4:2:2 YCbCr color space was developed as part of ITU-R BT.601 YCbCr data must be converted to 4:4:4 YCbCr data. For the (formerly CCIR 601) during the development of a world-wide YCbCr to RGB conversion process, each Y sample must digital component video standard. have a corresponding Cb and Cr sample. Some of these video ICs also generate digital RGB video Figure 1 illustrates the positioning of YCbCr samples for the data, using lookup tables to assist with the YCbCr to RGB 4:4:4 format.

Figure 2 illustrates the positioning of YCbCr samples for the This application note covers some of the considerations for 4:2:2 format. For every two horizontal Y samples, there is converting the YCbCr data to RGB data without the use of one Cb and Cr sample. Each sample is typically 8 bits (con- lookup tables. The process basically consists of three steps: sumer applications) or 10 bits (professional editing applica- tions) per component.
