Normalized Compositing • Transformation from different Timeline/Switcher/Transcoder - PQ-BT.2100 colourspaces (BT.601, BT.709, BT.2020) and transfer functions (Gamma 2.4, PQ, HLG) Convert Native • Correct signaling allows automation of conversion settings.

Comcast TPX 8 VIPER Architecture Distribution A Simplified Single-Stream HDR Workflow Today Comcast TPX 9 VIPER Architecture Distribution: A Simplified Single-Stream HDR Workflow Today Comcast TPX VIPER Architecture Look-Up-Table Conversion • Lookup Table(LUT) must explicitly match the content for conversions to be correct. Parameters include: • Signal Range - Level IN/OUT • Type I = Narrow-Range-In, Narrow-Range-Out • Type II = Full-Range-In, Full-Range-Out • Type III = • Full-Range-In with Narrow-Range-Signal-In • Narrow-Range-Signal-Out with Full Range Out Blue • These LUTs support super-white/black Red • Color Space • For matrix conversions to/from YCbCr to RGB • Transfer function • For correct output signaling for next device or process • Matrix Coefficients Comcast TPX 11 VIPER Architecture Chroma Errors • Chroma Subsampling Differences (4:4:4 or 4:2:2 to 4:2:0) • Proper alignment of concatenated signals depend on chroma-loc to prevent chroma artifacts caused by shifts. Comcast TPX 12 VIPER Architecture Greater Diversity and Volume - Automation Becomes A Necessity • Use of signaling and metadata • Allows automated conversion of legacy content • Independently developed tools using the standards-based signaling can be integrated into these automated workflows using the new signaling and metadata methods Comcast TPX 13 VIPER Architecture ITU-T H-Series Supplemental 19/ ISO-IEC 23091-4 Technical Record (2019) • Single filtered document with over 47 different standards references for SDR/HDR/WCG signalling • ISO/ITU-T Series-H Supplement 19; October 2019 (Usage Of Video Signal Type Coding Points) • Created by an active cross industry group over a 2 year span • Identifies commonly used combinations of video properties of content by industry • Identifies commonly used grading environments (Mastering Display Color Volume - MDCV) • References for both baseband(SDI/ST.2110) and file-based domains • Contains references for conversions such as the ITU-R recommendations for HDR to SDR Conversions, or HLG to PQ Conversions Comcast TPX 14 VIPER Architecture Video Properties / Common Usage Combinations System identifier BT2100_PQ_YCC BT2100_HLG_YCC Colour Light Container space properties Colour primaries BT.2020 / BT.2100 BT.2020 / BT.2100 4:2:0 chroma sample Colour Colour Integer Transfer characteristics BT.2100 PQ BT.2100 HLG Tag Dynamic Transfer location properties Gamut Primaries represent code level range function alignment ation scaling Colour representation Y′CbCr Y′CbCr (ChromaLocT Full/narrow range Narrow Narrow ype) Vertically Other 4:2:0 chroma sample HD interstitial Co-sited Co-sited BT601_525 Y′CbCr Narrow location alignment (ChromaLocTy or SD pe = 0) ColourPrimaries 9 9 BT.601 Vertically a interstitial CICP TransferCharacteristics 16 18 BT601_625 Y′CbCr Narrow parameters (ChromaLocTy Rec.
