Abstract
Given a standard-dynamic range (SDR) video input, techniques for generating and compressing composer metadata describing inverse luma and chroma reshaping functions are described. Given the SDR input, the composer metadata allow a decoder to generate a corresponding output in high-dynamic range. Three techniques are proposed: a static, sequence-based, architecture, a two-stage, scene-based, distributed solution with a centralized post-processing method, and a single-stage distributed solution using overlapped segments. Techniques to reduce the amount of transmitted composer metadata are also described.
