Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: [PNG] Meeting topics - Jan 6, 2025

Hi All,

Hi All,

Could you elaborate on why cICP is not independent of mDCV and cLLI? Most video has existed without both mDCV and cLLI for many years. What would the adverse effects of their absence be?

Any method that accelerates the implementation of cICP in libpng without causing any other conflicts is essential. We have long lacked the ability to identify video formats in PNG still image formats which has caused mismapping for years (sRGB vs BT.709). With cICP, we will avoid further issues now that HDR and WCG are in common use.

John:

  *   Can you explain what you mean by “PQ with sRGB data”?
  *   Also, can you point me to H.273 that indicates 1.0 corresponds to 2,000 cd/m2? PQ peak white = 10,000 cd/m2 and 1.0 PQ in floating point is currently 1 cd/m2 (but will become diffuse white in cd/m2 if all goes well).

I agree with John that delaying cLLI and mDCV would be unfortunate and
produce breakage.
