Compression efficiency of HDR/LDR content
High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging is capable of delivering a wider range of luminance and color gamut compared to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR), offering to viewers a visual quality of experience close to that of real-life. In this study, we evaluate the quality of coded original HDR streams and HDR streams reconstructed from SDR videos and metadata, both compressed by the HEVC standard. Our evaluations have shown that the single HDR approach is largely preferred over the SDR counterpart.
