SMPTE ST 2094-1:2016

The SMPTE ST 2094 suite of documents define metadata for use in color volume transforms of content. The metadata are content-dependent and can vary scene-by-scene or image-by-image. The metadata are intended to transform High Dynamic Range and Wide Color Gamut (HDR/WCG) image essence for presentation on a display having a smaller color volume than that of the mastering display used for mastering the image essence. Multiple applications provide particular color volume transforms.

This standard, a part of the 2094 suite, specifies common definitions, including a transform metadata set, and metadata parameters, for use by other parts of the 2094 suite.

Other parts of the 2094 suite provide representation for carriage and additional application-specific metadata parameters for color volume transforms.
