Patent attributes
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for dynamic tone mapping of video content. An example embodiment operates by identifying, by a dynamic tone mapping system executing on a media device, characteristics of a first video signal having a first dynamic range based on a frame-by-frame analysis of the first video signal. The example embodiment further operates by modifying, by the dynamic tone mapping system, a tone mapping curve based on the characteristics of the first video signal to generate a modified tone mapping curve. Subsequently, the example embodiment operates by converting, by the dynamic tone mapping system, the first video signal based on the modified tone mapping curve to generate a second video signal having a second dynamic range that is less than the first dynamic range.
