HDR mastering requires accurate per-scene metadata injection for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ to maintain fidelity. This workflow orchestrates metadata generation and embedding, preserving critical luminance and master-display information for compliant streaming and broadcast delivery.

Converting HDR10 PQ to HLG involves cross-format tone-mapping with strict guardrails to preserve master-display and luminance data. This workflow handles PQ to HLG conversions directly, ensuring broadcast-compliant output without losing critical dynamic range metadata.

End-to-end HDR packaging requires a compatible toolchain including ffmpeg with HDR color processing, hdr-dovi-tool, and hdr-hdr10plus-tool. The workflow orchestrates these tools alongside OCIO/ACES color management to produce compliant IMF/MP4 packages.

Authoring dual-format HDR10 and Dolby Vision streams requires cross-format mastering that preserves critical metadata across both formats. This workflow manages the end-to-end process from source material through color management to compliant packaging, ensuring accurate max-cll and max-fall encoding parameters.

Yes, the HDR workflow supports OCIO and ACES-based color pipelines for professional video production. It integrates these color management frameworks to ensure accurate tone-mapping and cross-format mastering from HDR source material through to final delivery.

Automated HDR10 to SDR tone-mapping may not be suitable when precise creative control over highlight rolloff and shadow detail is required. While this workflow provides guardrails to preserve luminance information, manual color grading might be necessary for complex scenes with critical dynamic range transitions.
