Multimedia systems and equipment - Colour measurement and management - Part 12-2: Simple metadata format for identification of colour gamut

IEC 61966-12-1:2014 specifies the colour gamut metadata format for video systems intended for use in CE (Consumer Electronics) devices. The metadata specified in this part of IEC 61966 is limited to the gamut description of additive three primary colours type displays whose white and black points have the same chromaticity. It is fundamentally based on the conventional VESA-EDID format.

Systèmes et appareils multimédias – Mesure et gestion de la couleur – Partie 12-2: Format simple des métadonnées d'identification des gammes de couleurs

L'IEC 61966-12:2014 spécifie le format des métadonnées des gammes de couleurs pour les systèmes vidéo destinés à être utilisés dans les dispositifs électroniques grand public (EGP). Les métadonnées spécifiées dans la présente partie de l'IEC 61966 se limitent à la description des gammes de couleurs des écrans à trois couleurs primaires additives dont les points blancs et noirs ont la même chromaticité. Elles reposent essentiellement sur le format conventionnel VESA-EDID.
Lorsqu'il est associé au contenu, le format simple des métadonnées définit la gamme de couleurs pour laquelle le contenu a été créé. Celles-ci peuvent être utilisées par l'écran pour contrôler la reproduction des couleurs, même si la gamme de couleurs de l'écran est différente de celle du contenu.
Lorsqu'il est associé à un écran, le format simple des métadonnées définit la gamme de couleurs de l'écran. Celles-ci peuvent servir pendant la création du contenu, pour permettre une meilleure reproduction des couleurs.
La présente norme fournit la solution la plus simple, mais sans ambiguïté, pour les dispositifs EGP types qui reposent sur la communication d'informations de gamme de couleurs.
