Summary:Novel methods and systems for decoding and displaying enhanced dynamic range (EDR) video signals are disclosed. To accommodate legacy digital media players with constrained computational resources, compositing and display management (DM) operations are moved from a digital media player to its attached EDR display. On a video receiver, base and enhancement video layers are decoded and multiplexed together with overlay graphics into an interleaved stream. The video and graphics signals are all converted to a common format which allows metadata to be embedded in the interleaved signal as part of the least significant bits in the chroma channels. On the display, the video and the graphics are de-interleaved. After compositing and display management operations guided by the received metadata, the received graphics data are blended with the output of the DM process and the final video output is displayed on the display's panel.
