For each frame of a plurality of frames included in a video, (1) for a color channel of the frame, a color-specific brightness characterization is determined, (2) for the color channel, in one or more additional frames, one or more additional color-specific brightness characterizations are determined, (3) a filter for the frame is generated based on the color-specific brightness characterization and the one or more additional color-specific brightness characterizations, (4) the filter is applied to the frame to generate a filtered frame, and (5) the filtered frame is output. The filter is configured such that if a color-specific high brightness condition for the color channel is present in the frame, then the color-specific high brightness condition for the color channel is mitigated or removed from the filtered frame.

Abstract: Innovations in rendering of high dynamic range (“HDR”) video on a display device having enhanced dynamic range (“EDR”). The peak brightness for an EDR display device is lower than the peak brightness for a typical HDR display device but higher than the peak brightness for a typical display device having standard dynamic range. The increased range of brightness values in an EDR display device can be utilized effectively to show bright highlights of the HDR video. For example, decision logic is configured to evaluate a peak brightness of a target display device and select an HDR-to-EDR tone mapping mode. A tone mapper is configured to apply tone mapping to input values for the sample values of HDR video, according to a tone mapping function, thereby producing output values for sample values of EDR video.

Abstract: Innovations in rendering of high dynamic range (“HDR”) content are described. A playback system can adjust a tone mapping function used when rendering the HDR content, thereby improving quality when rendering the HDR content. For example, the playback system includes decision logic, which is configured to receive summary information (e.g., histogram information) for sample values of a picture of HDR content, and set a tone mapping function based at least in part on the summary information. The tone mapping function can be selected from among multiple available tone mapping functions, and parameters of the selected tone mapping function can be determined based at least in part on the summary information. A tone mapper is configured to apply tone mapping to input values for the sample values of the picture of HDR content, according to the tone mapping function, and thereby produce output values.

Abstract: Innovations in rendering of high dynamic range (“HDR”) content are described. A playback system can dynamically and proactively adjust the brightness level of a target display device. In some cases, this can reduce power consumption when rendering HDR content, without any noticeable degradation in quality. For example, the playback system includes decision logic. The decision logic is configured to receive summary information for sample values of a picture of HDR content and determine (based at least in part on the summary information) a brightness level of the target display device. The playback system can send, to the target display device, a control signal that indicates the brightness level of the target display device. A tone mapper can be configured to apply tone mapping to input values for the sample values of the picture of HDR content, according to a tone mapping function, and thereby produce output values.

Abstract: This document describes techniques for browser-based recording and streaming of content. In at least some embodiments, a web browser interfaces with recording devices (e.g., a video camera, a microphone, a still-image camera, and so on) of a computing device to stream content data from live events and to record the live events to produce content files. The web browser can also upload the content files to a web-based resource, such as a web server. Further to some embodiments, the techniques can enable multiple recording devices to be used concurrently to record live events. Also in at least some embodiments, the techniques can enable concurrent or semi-concurrent recording and upload of content. For example, a portion of a live event can be recorded and the resulting content data can be uploaded while additional portions of the live event are recorded.
