Conforming to SD, RGB, and Composite Colorimetry in High-Definition Serial Digital Video Systems

Conforming the color space of high-definition (HD) video is a challenge that requires an awareness of other digital and analog video formats into which the HD content may be distributed. The range of color space of any format also describes its color “gamut.” Color space “errors” are a product of the conversion of video signals originally produced for one video format into another. Broadcasters and post-production facilities accept programming from a myriad of sources that may or may not meet “over-the-air” standards. In today's digital world, the only standard is that there is no standard; HD post-production and ATSC broadcast add many new standards and challenges to the marketplace.
