Abstract

A decoder receives for decoding and post-processing for display an HDR (high dynamic range) image comprising a first coded image (e.g., a JPEG-HDR baseline image) and a second coded image (e.g., a JPEG-HDR ratio image). The first coded image is partially decoded and post-processed according to a post-processing command (e.g., scaling) to output a first decoded and post-processed image. The second coded image is also partially decoded and post-processed according to the post-processing command to output a second decoded and post-processed image. The first and the second decoded and post-processed images are combined to output a decoded HDR image according to the post-processing command.
