The Y'CbCr encoding is ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601`` +with full range quantization where Y' is scaled to [0…255] and Cb/Cr are +scaled to [-128…128] and then clipped to [-128…127]. + +.. note:: + + The JPEG standard does not actually store colorspace + information. So if something other than sRGB is used, then the driver + will have to set that information explicitly. Effectively + ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_JPEG`` can be considered to be an abbreviation for + ``V4L2_COLORSPACE_SRGB``, ``V4L2_XFER_FUNC_SRGB``, ``V4L2_YCBCR_ENC_601`` + and ``V4L2_QUANTIZATION_FULL_RANGE``. + +*************************************** +Detailed Transfer Function Descriptions +*************************************** + +.. _xf-smpte-2084: + +Transfer Function SMPTE 2084 (V4L2_XFER_FUNC_SMPTE2084) +======================================================= + +The :ref:`smpte2084` standard defines the transfer function used by +High Dynamic Range content. + +Constants: + m1 = (2610 / 4096) / 4 + + m2 = (2523 / 4096) * 128 + + c1 = 3424 / 4096 + + c2 = (2413 / 4096) * 32 + + c3 = (2392 / 4096) * 32 + +Transfer function: + L' = ((c1 + c2 * L\ :sup:`m1`) / (1 + c3 * L\ :sup:`m1`))\ :sup:`m2` + +Inverse Transfer function: + L = (max(L':sup:`1/m2` - c1, 0) / (c2 - c3 * + L'\ :sup:`1/m2`))\ :sup:`1/m1` + +Take care when converting between this transfer function and non-HDR transfer +functions: the linear RGB values [0…1] of HDR content map to a luminance range +of 0 to 10000 cd/m\ :sup:`2` whereas the linear RGB values of non-HDR (aka +Standard Dynamic Range or SDR) map to a luminance range of 0 to 100 cd/m\ :sup:`2`. + +To go from SDR to HDR you will have to divide L by 100 first. To go in the other +direction you will have to multiply L by 100. Of course, this clamps all +luminance values over 100 cd/m\ :sup:`2` to 100 cd/m\ :sup:`2`. + +There are better methods, see e.g. :ref:`colimg` for more in-depth information +about this. -- cgit v1.2.3
