Abstract

A data generation method is for generating video data that covers a second luminance dynamic range wider than a first luminance dynamic range and has reproduction compatibility with a first device that does not support reproduction of video having the second luminance dynamic range and supports reproduction of video having the first luminance dynamic range, and includes: generating a video signal to be included in the video data using a second OETF; storing, into VUI in the video data, first transfer function information for identifying a first OETF to be referred to by the first device when the first device decodes the video data; and storing, into SEI in the video data, second transfer function information for identifying a second OETF to be referred to by a second device supporting reproduction of video having the second luminance dynamic range when the second device decodes the video data.

Claims (22)

1. A data generation method, performed by a data generation device, comprising:

generating video data according to an Advanced Video Coding (AVC) standard and a second opt-electrical transfer function (OETF);

storing video usability information (VUI) including a first value indicating a first OETF; and

storing supplemental enhancement information (SEI) including a second value indicating the second OETF, wherein

the first OETF and the second OETF support a standard dynamic range (SDR) and a high dynamic range (HDR), respectively,

the first value is to be referred to by a decoding device that does not support HDR,

the second OETF is a combination of a square root function and a logarithmic function,

the SEI is provided in a multiplexing layer other than a video coding layer, and

the second OETF has compatibility with the first OETF.

2. The data generation method according to claim 1 , wherein the video data has compatibility such that the decoding device reproduces the video data based on SDR.

3. The data generation method according to claim 1 , wherein the second value is referred to by another decoding device that supports HDR and SDR.

4. A decoding device comprising:

a receiver configured to receive video data generated according to an Advanced Video Coding (AVC) standard and a second opt-electrical transfer function (OETF); and

a decoding circuit configured to decode the video data, wherein

the receiver is further configured to receive:

video usability information (VUI) including a first value indicating a first OETF; and

supplemental enhancement information (SEI) including a second value indicating the second OETF,

the first OETF and the second OETF support a standard dynamic range (SDR) and a high dynamic range (HDR), respectively,

the first value is to be referred to by the decoding device that does not support HDR,

the second OETF is a combination of a square root function and a logarithmic function,

the SEI is provided in a multiplexing layer other than a video coding layer, and

the second OETF has compatibility with the first OETF.
