Recommendations for Verifying HDR Subjective Testing Workflows

Abstract

Over the past few years, there has been an increase in the demand and availability of High Dynamic Range (HDR) displays and content. To ensure the production of high-quality materials, human evaluation is required. However, ascertaining whether the full playback pipeline is indeed HDR-compliant can be challenging. In this paper, we present a set of recommendations for conformance testing to validate various aspects of the testing workflow, including playback, displays, brightness, colours, and viewing environment. We assessed the effectiveness of HDR conversion techniques used in current standards development (3GPP) for making source materials. Additionally, we evaluate HDR display technologies, including OLED and LCD, using both consumer television and a reference monitor.
