Abstract
There is provided a decoding device including circuitry configured to receive coded data and conversion information, the coded data pertaining to an image having luminance in a first dynamic range and the conversion information pertaining to a conversion of dynamic range of the luminance of the image from the first dynamic range into a second dynamic range; and decode the received coded data so as to generate the image, wherein the conversion uses a knee function.

A decoding device comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- receive coded data and conversion information, the coded data pertaining to an image having luminance in a first dynamic range and the conversion information pertaining to a conversion of dynamic range of the luminance of the image from the first dynamic range into a second dynamic range;
- and
- decode the received coded data so as to generate the image,
- wherein the conversion uses a knee function that is defined by at least one knee point, and
- wherein the conversion information includes
- unconverted luminance range information indicating a permilliage of peak luminance level for the image prior to the conversion relative to a normalized luminance level,
- unconverted display luminance information indicating an expected display brightness of peak luminance level for the image prior to the conversion,
- converted luminance range information indicating a permillage of peak luminance level for the image after the conversion relative to the normalized luminance level, and
- converted display luminance information indicating an expected display brightness of peak luminance level for the image after the conversion.
A decoding method of causing a decoding device to perform:
- receiving coded data and conversion information, the coded data pertaining to an image having luminance in a first dynamic range and the conversion information pertaining to a conversion of dynamic range of the luminance of the image from the first dynamic range into a second dynamic range;
- and
- decoding the received coded data so as to generate the image,
- wherein the conversion uses a knee function that is defined by at least one knee point, and
