Dolby Vision is a set of solutions introduced by Dolby in 2014 for High Dynamic Range (HDR) video creation[1][2], distribution and display. Dolby Vision include dynamic metadata that can adjust the brightness, color and sharpness of each frame of the video to match the display color volume (i.e. the gamut and the maximum and minimum brightness capability). It allow for the creative intents to be preserved on all Dolby Vision compatible displays.

Dolby Vision is capable of a peak brightness up to 10,000 cd/m2 and a color gamut up to Rec. 2020. Content are required to be graded with a peak brightness of at least 1,000 cd/m2 and a color gamut of at least 99% of P3.[3]

Metadata

Dolby Vision metadata include[9] :

  • L0 (static): Mastering and target display characteristics
  • L1 (dynamic): Automaticaly generated
  • L2 trims (dynamic): Manually generated per frame or per scene
  • L3 trims (dynamic): Manually generated per frame or per scene (since CMv4.0)
  • L8 trims (dynamic): Manually generated per frame or per scene (since CMv4.0) (equivalent of L2 trims)
  • L5: Timeline aspect ratio description
  • L6 (static and optionnal): MaxCLL and MaxFALL (required for HDR10)
  • L9 (dynamic): Mastering display color primaries (since CMv4.0)

Licence

Dolby Vision is a proprietary solution by Dolby.[10] In 2021, compatible color grading systems can create Dolby Vision automatic metadata with no additionnal cost for content creators.[10] A 2,500$ annual licence is required to activate the trims allowing content creators to manualy adjust the video.[10] OEM and manufacturer of a grading, mastering, editorial, or other professional application or device need to apply for a licence.[10]

Description 1

Dolby Vision is an HDR format from Dolby Laboratories that can be optionally supported by Ultra HD Blu-ray discs and streaming video services.[11][12] Dolby Vision is a proprietary format and Dolby SVP of Business Giles Baker has stated that the royalty cost for Dolby Vision is less than $3 per TV.[13][14][15] Dolby Vision includes the Perceptual Quantizer (SMPTE ST 2084) electro-optical transfer function, up to 8K resolution, and a wide-gamut color space (ITU-R Rec. BT.2020 in YCBCR or IPTPQc2). Some Dolby Vision profiles allow for 12-bit color depth and 10,000 cd/m2 maximum brightness[16] (as of 2018, according to the Dolby Vision white paper, professional reference monitors, such as the Dolby Vision HDR reference monitor, are currently limited to 4,000 cd/m2 of peak brightness).[17] It can encode mastering display colorimetry information using static metadata (SMPTE ST 2086) but also provide dynamic metadata (SMPTE ST 2094-10, Dolby format) for each scene[18] or frame, like on iPhone 12.[citation needed]

Examples of Ultra HD (UHD) TVs that support Dolby Vision include LG, TCL, VU, Sony and Vizio.[19] MulticoreWare's x265 encoder supports Dolby Vision as of version 3.0.[20] Dolby Vision IQ is an update designed to optimise Dolby Vision content according to the ambient light.[21] It is considered to be future proof.[22]

This dynamic metadata or Dynamic HDR allows adjusting of brightness and contrast (in reality, the tone curve) on the scene by scene or even frame by frame bases as and when required and adjusts it many times during the video/movie.[23]

Description 2

Dolby Vision is a content mastering and delivery format similar to the HDR10 media profile. It supports both high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (ITU-R Rec. 2020 and 2100) at all stages from content creation and production to transmission and playback. Dolby Vision includes the Perceptual Quantizier (SMPTE ST-2084) electro-optical transfer function and supports displays with up to 10,000-nit maximum brightness (4,000-nit in practice). It also provides up to 8K resolution and color depth of up to 12-bits (backward compatible with current 8-bit and 10-bit displays).[24] Dolby Vision can encode mastering display colorimetry information using static metadata (SMPTE ST 2086) and dynamic metadata (SMPTE ST 2094-10, Dolby format) for each scene.[25] Examples of Ultra HD (UHD) Dolby Vision are available in TV, monitor, mobile devices and theater. Dolby Vision content can be delivered on Ultra HD Blu-ray discs,[26][27] over conventional broadcasting, OTT, and online streaming media services.[28] Dolby Vision metadata can be carried via HDMI interface versions 1.4b and above.[29] It also supports IPTPQc2 color space, that is similar to ICtCp. Dolby Vision IQ is an update designed to optimise Dolby Vision content according to the brightness of the room.[30]
