The method comprises: color mapping (14) said video signal represented in a first color volume from said first color volume into said second color volume in the case where said first and second color volumes are different; and color mapping (16) said color mapped video signal based on said color mapping data. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of color mapping comprising: decoding an indicator from a bitstream, wherein said indicator indicates whether (1) a color mapping based on color mapping data is to be applied directly on a video signal represented in a first color volume or (2) said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied on said video signal after a prior color mapping of said video signal from said first color volume into a second color volume different from said first color volume, and wherein said indicator further indicates said second color volume; color mapping said video signal by applying the color mapping data directly on the video signal in the case where said indicator indicates said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied directly on the video signal represented in the first color volume; and otherwise color mapping said video signal by color mapping said video signal from said first color volume into said second color volume and by applying the color mapping data on the video signal represented in said second color volume. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, wherein said indicator is a binary flag. ### Claim 3 A device of color mapping comprising at least a processor configured to: decode an indicator from a bitstream, said indicator indicates whether (1) a color mapping based on color mapping data is to be applied directly on a video signal represented in a first color volume or (2) said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied on said video signal after a prior color mapping of said video signal from said first color volume into a second color volume different from said first color volume, and wherein said indicator further indicates said second color volume; color map said video signal by applying the color mapping data directly on the video signal in the case where said indicator indicates said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied directly on the video signal represented in the first color volume; and otherwise color map said video signal by color mapping said video signal from said first color volume into said second color volume and by applying the color mapping data on the video signal represented in said second color volume. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The device according to claim 3, wherein said indicator is a binary flag. ### Claim 5 A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions for causing one or more processors to perform: decoding an indicator from a bitstream, wherein said indicator indicates whether (1) a color mapping based on color mapping data is to be applied directly on a video signal represented in a first color volume or (2) said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied on said video signal after a prior color mapping of said video signal from said first color volume into a second color volume different from said first color volume, and wherein said indicator further indicates said second color volume; color mapping said video signal by applying the color mapping data directly on the video signal in the case where said indicator indicates said color mapping based on said color mapping data is to be applied directly on the video signal represented in the first color volume; and otherwise color mapping said video signal by color mapping said video signal from said first color volume into said second color volume and by applying the color mapping data on the video signal represented in said second color volume. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The non-transitory computer-readable media according to claim 5, wherein said indicator is a binary flag.
