Method and/or apparatus for implementing a color management module

An apparatus comprising:

• means for generating a first intermediate signal in a second format in response to an input signal in a first format;
• means for processing a second intermediate signal and a third intermediate signal in response to said first intermediate signal and further in response to a color domain input signal, a guard band input signal and a mapping method input signal, and wherein said means for processing further generates an overlap results signal;
• and
• means for generating an output signal in said first format in response to said second intermediate signal and said third intermediate signal, wherein said means for processing is configured to (i) implement spatial color blending on said second intermediate signal in said second format prior to conversion to said first format and (ii) pass said third intermediate signal without said spatial color blending.

A method for implementing video processing, comprising the steps of:

• (A) generating a first intermediate signal in a second format in response to an input signal in a first format;
• (B) generating an overlap results signal, a second intermediate signal and a third intermediate signal in response to said first intermediate signal and further in response to a color domain input signal, a guard band input signal and a mapping method input signal;
• (C) implementing spatial color blending on said second intermediate signal in said second format;
• (D) passing said third intermediate signal without said spatial color blending;
• and
• (E) generating an output signal in said first format in response to said second intermediate signal and said third intermediate signal.
