Summary:Methods and systems to adjust differently brightness and contrast for dark and bright pictures on a display are provided. Given a tone-mapping curve mapping an input dynamic range to a display comprising a minimum and maximum display luminance value, the maximum display luminance value is lowered to an adjusted luminance value according to user defined parameters. The input dynamic range is tone-mapped to the display dynamic range using the adjusted luminance value. For brightness control, the tone mapped image is stretched linearly back to the maximum display luminance value. For contrast control, a gamma or power EOTF of the display is adjusted according to the adjusted luminance. For displays with global backlight control, the global backlight is adjusted only when contrast is adjusted.
