Device and method of handling multiple formats of a video sequence
A transmitter for handling multiple formats of a video sequence, comprises a preprocessing module, for receiving a first format of a video sequence, to generate metadata of a second format of the video sequence according to the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence; and an encoder, couple to the preprocessing module, for transmitting the first format of the video sequence and the metadata in a bit stream to a receiver.
1. A transmitter for handling multiple formats of a video sequence, comprising:
a preprocessing module, for receiving a first format of a video sequence, to generate metadata of a second format of the video sequence according to the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence, wherein the metadata provides additional information by describing a relation between the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence, and the first format of the video sequence is standard dynamic range (SDR), and the second format of the video sequence is high dynamic range (HDR); and
an encoder, couple to the preprocessing module, for transmitting the first format of the video sequence and the metadata in a bit stream to a receiver.
2. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the first format of the video sequence is generated by a video capturing device or an editing device.
3. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the preprocessing module generates the metadata of the second format of the video sequence according to the first format of the video sequence, the second format of the video sequence and a 3D lookup table.
4. A receiver for handling multiple formats of a video sequence, comprising:
a decoder, for receiving a bit stream comprising a first format of a video sequence and metadata of a second format of the video sequence from a transmitter, wherein the metadata provides additional information by describing a relation between the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence, and the first format of the video sequence is a first format of high dynamic range (HDR), and the second format of the video sequence is a second format of HDR; and
a postprocessing module, couple to the decoder, for generating the second format of the video sequence according to the metadata and the first format of the video sequence.
5. The receiver of claim 4 , wherein the first format of the video sequence is generated by a video capturing device or an editing device.
6. The receiver of claim 4 , wherein the postprocessing module generates the second format of the video sequence according to the metadata, the first format of the video sequence and a 3D lookup table.
7. A transmitter for handling multiple formats of a video sequence, comprising:
a preprocessing module, for receiving a first format of a video sequence, to generate metadata of a second format of the video sequence according to the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence, wherein the metadata provides additional information by describing a relation between the first format of the video sequence and the second format of the video sequence, and the first format of the video sequence is high dynamic range (HDR), and the second format of the video sequence is standard dynamic range (SDR); and
an encoder, couple to the preprocessing module, for transmitting the first format of the video sequence and the metadata in a bit stream to a receiver.
8. The transmitter of claim 7 , wherein the first format of the video sequence is generated by a video capturing device or an editing device.
9. The transmitter of claim 7 , wherein the preprocessing module generates the metadata of the second format of the video sequence according to the first format of the video sequence, the second format of the video sequence and a 3D lookup table.
