I would like to start off by saying thank you to everyone here on AVS forum for your continued support regarding my first project “R.Masciola’s Advanced Calibration Disc” and glad to see that it has been a useful tool for many. Now, to take things to the next level, I would like to introduce my second project “R.Masciola’s HDR-10 UHD Test Patterns Suite”. Starting off as an idea over six months ago has finally come to light. Months of research went into these patterns as they were built from the ground up to adhere to the newest of industry standards, specifically, UHD, HDR10, WCG, and ST.2084. I would also like to thank Ron E.(dr1394), Tom Huffman(ChromaPure), Tyler Pruitt(SpectraCal), and zoyd(hcfr) for their help and support towards this project. I designed an entire suite of pattern files, “Basic Setup”, "Advanced Setup”, and “Miscellaneous Patterns”. I have also added the new HDR10 workflows form Calman, ChromaPure, and hcfr. Currently these patterns are only available to check/measure your HDR-10 enabled displays as most manufactures gray out your calibration adjustments when HDR is enabled. These patterns have been tested on a few Samsung, Sony, and LG HDR-10 enabled displays but may work on other displays that properly adhere to the HDR-10 industry standard. The pattern suite is available for download “HERE”. The pattern files are available in .ts (MPEG transport stream) and mp4 format utilizing HEVC and are encoded separately for user flexibility. I have tested every pattern after encoding, decoded once completed and referenced before/after triplets to provide reference patterns. I have listed the MediaInfo specifications below and have provided a link which includes a demo of my 11 step grayscale patterns in both ts and mp4 formats.

5% window patterns may be too small for some LCD displays. You may want to make some 10% size since that is what the UHDA uses for testing. I have found through extensive measurements of both LCD and OLED that 10% is the best for both technologies.
 
#3 · (Edited)
I initially started with 10% windows, but decided on 5% in the end. Plus, I am offering an array of APL patterns as well. Would you venture to say 10% is all that is needed based on your testing or just a good average patch size for both technologies?

Just tried the demo on my Samsung JS8000 and found the set tracking the brightness targets well. The only thing I've noticed is on the 100% window I get between 532-538 nits, but using the Spectracal demo 100% window they released a while back I'm getting 550 nits. I guess this is because of the different window size?

Another thing I noticed is when playing the files from a portable HDD through the TV usb directly I got different results than with the HDD connected to my K8500 UHD BD player. The results via the UHD BD player were much closer to the brightness targets.

Hi carneb,

Yes, my demo patterns are slightly larger compared to the Spectracal test pattern released a while back. This leads to a slightly lower peak brightness on your display. However, once the project is completed, I will have a multitude of different size test windows for comparison.

How does the colour clipping pattern work?
 
#11 ·
The current patterns that I'm creating can be utilized to track P3 on your UHD display. BT.2020 being the color space/gamut and P3 a targeting gamut within that color space. Set your calibration software configuration to track P3 when utilizing my patterns and the rest is on your display to properly map it to the best of its ability.

Looking good... Since I have a QD 780 which can generate HDR patterns, the window sizes, etc don't matter as much to me; but I am still very interested in your project.
Any way to add some real images and a motion resolution pattern for evaluation? Skin tones, sky, foliage, in both bright and dark lighting would be helpful.

Just a quick update. I had to make a few configuration changes to my 265 stream over the weekend. I had ran into a few compatibility conflicts during testing between manufactures. With that being said, this is only a small technical set back…but in return, will have better compatibility across more HDR enabled displays and manufactures. I have also decided to go with mpeg ts (Transport Stream) over mp4 container for wider coverage of compatibility. I updated the free demo link as well to reflect the changes made, reconfigured 265 and an added mute/blank aac track, both elementary streams muxed into a ts container. This combination resulted in flawless playback on the following (but not limited to) models:
-
  • LG 65E6 (2016 OLED)
  • LG EF9500 (2015 OLED)
  • LG UH9500 (2016 LED/LCD)
  • Samsung JS9500 (2015 LED/LCD)
  • Samsung 65KS9000 (2016 LED/LCD)
  • Samsung UBD-K8500 (Bluray player)
  • Sony 65X930 (2016 LED/LCD)

I have also updated the first post to reflect the Media Info data. Also, thanks to a few recommendation, I have decided to add the following:
-
  • Demo footage for Landscape and Skin Tones
  • 5% & 10% Window patterns @ 50% Amplitude/100% Saturation Color sweeps
  • 11 step grayscale sweeps @ 2%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, and 40%
  • 11 step grayscale sweep 10% Window patterns @ 1000 nits, 4000 nits, and 10,000 nits


Thank you for the continued support!

I have a question about the metadata listed in the first post. You have the mastering display primaries listed as P3 primaries. What happens if you have a fully saturated 2020 colour window (say 940,64,64) with this metadata? Will the TV try to show it as a 2020 primary (940,64,64)? Will it try to show it as a P3 primary (P3 XYZ convered to 2020 RGB), or something else? Have you tested this?
 
#22 ·
I have not tested with full bt.2020 primaries. However, I could make a 10% window color sweep WRGBYCM for testing. I would assume this tests how accurate your displays internal color mapping is compared to being fed P3 metadata...which is extremely easier for these consumer grade displays to target in comparison.

Do you use 2020 or P3 primaries as the target for colour gamut measurement in Calman? A lot of the review websites seem to use Calman and they all seem to expect the tv they are testing to track 2020 not P3, so I assume the default is 2020 primaries?
 
#30 · (Edited)
I was able to conduct more testing today on a variety of HDR-10 enabled displays. I think I've finally settled on a metadata string that works across them all. (In the Samsung, Sony, and LG family of displays)

You would think there would be a difference at the lower saturation tracking points (50% and 25%). I'll borrow a diagram from the HDTVTest.co.uk review of the Panasonic TX-58DX902B HERE

You can see on the following diagram showing tracking of BT2020 that even though the 100% points are still in roughly the same place as P3 primaries, the lower saturation points have been re-aligned to have the same hue as the 2020 primaries.



I suppose it depends on the TV but you would think that your testing would show something similar. It might be a silly question, but are the RGB values for the BT2020 w/p3 mastering display color primaries windows different to the RGB values for the BT2020 w/BT2020 mastering display color primaries? For example the red 100% saturation/100% stimulus window for 2020 mastering primaries would be 940,64,64 but for P3 mastering primaries I would think that the RGB values would be roughly 727, 104, 64?
 
#33 ·
This suggests that there is no consistency among display manufacturers regarding the display gamut. Given that, how can you develop one set of test patterns designed to be used for all displays?

BTW, to determine which gamut the display uses the green hue line is critical, as it is by far the most distinguishing between a 2020 and DCi gamut.

 
#48 ·
The Ultra HD specification, while using Rec2020 as the target (envelope) colours space, actually specifies that any Ultra HD display only has to reach 90% of DCI-P3 to be accepted as a UHDTV display - and 90% of DCI-P3 is not not that much larger than Rec709.

See: http://www.lightillusion.com/uhdtv.html
There is an example Gamut Coverage graph towards the bottom of the page.

I just wanted to give a quick update on the project and bullet a few things. I'm near completion with the last of the encoding. I did decide to go with two separate pattern suites/sets...one for OLED with a min of 0.0005 and one for LCD with a min of 0.05 with the following metadata:

OLED
Color primaries : BT.2020
Transfer characteristics : SMPTE ST 2084
Matrix coefficients : BT.2020 non-constant
Mastering display color primaries : R: x=0.680000 y=0.320000, G: x=0.265000 y=0.690000, B: x=0.150000 y=0.060000, White point: x=0.312700 y=0.329000
Mastering display luminance : min: 0.0005 cd/m2, max: 1000.0000 cd/m2
Maximum Content Light Level : 1000 cd/m2
Maximum Frame-Average Light Level : 400 cd/m2

LCD
Color primaries : BT.2020
Transfer characteristics : SMPTE ST 2084
Matrix coefficients : BT.2020 non-constant
Mastering display color primaries : R: x=0.680000 y=0.320000, G: x=0.265000 y=0.690000, B: x=0.150000 y=0.060000, White point: x=0.312700 y=0.329000
Mastering display luminance : min: 0.05 cd/m2, max: 1000.0000 cd/m2
Maximum Content Light Level : 1000 cd/m2
Maximum Frame-Average Light Level : 400 cd/m2

I also pickup a very slick software from Florian Friedrich called "SEIedit" which allows me to modify the SEI/VUI metadata without recoding all of my files! Big thumbs up to Florian...as I feel this is an essential tool when dealing with HDR encoded files and the constant change of metadata! This project has taken a little longer than expected to launch...however, this is not a project that one would want to rush!:)

Happy 4th of July to everyone here on the forum! Just a quick update.
-
  • Basic Setup Patterns - 100% Complete
  • Advanced Setup Patterns - 100% Complete
  • Calman Workflow - 95% Complete
  • ChromaPure Workflow - 75% Complete
  • HCFR Workflow - 65% Complete
  • Miscellaneous Patterns - 100% Complete

Quite a few patterns have been added, a few modified, and some deleted from the project. However, all patterns 100% focused on HDR-10, with current display limitation in mind, and the future. The request for percentages of BT2020(being the main focus of the project) have been added...especially 50% and/or 100 cd/m2. I have also added P3 in BT2020 container patterns which has also been requested. The workflows are coming along nicely and track the software modules perfectly. Thank you everyone for the continued interest/support and hope to have this project launched soon!

  4. CMS Adjust Module
  5. ColorChecker Module(along with DCI Red, Green, & Blue)
  6. Saturation Sweeps Module
  7. Post Calibration View Module

I have definitely thought about it. However, there really isn't any cost effective solutions to author UHD Bluray at the moment. I know DVD-Logic is releasing "KryptonITe" which sounds promising. Still a possibility! :)

I just finished encoding and the testing of my patterns a few days ago. I sent over copies of my entire pattern suite to Scott(zoyd), Tyler, and Tom for testing and/or verification against HCFR, Calman, and ChromaPure. I also refreshed my website and will go live once the workflows and patterns are verified. I have provided another progress update below. Thanks.

I think it's important to have a disc based version. Case in point would be for the new JVCs and the Samsung 8500 UHD Blu Ray player. The JVC's gamma D preset, which it locks into with HDR, is horribly inaccurate; so much so that JVC recommends using certain gamma D tweaks and then putting the Samsung player's "user" preset to +7 contrast/+3 brightness for HDR playback! And it does seem necessary. I was skeptical at first.

Any way, when the new Panasonic and Oppo UHD BD players come out, there's going to be a need to match up their picture controls (assuming they have them) to the Samsung's in HDR mode. One company's +7 contrast might be dramatically different than another's.

Hi Chad,

Yeah, I spoke with the senior engineer over at DVD-Logic that's directly dealing with the KryptonITe project and it seem legit...pricey, but legit. KryptonITe packages can be purchased à la carte and customized to your needs as well. However, you'd still be looking at roughly $2,000 just to multiplex your already encoded h.265 elementary streams...It is just an extremely basic authoring tool at that price point. I'm still extremely interested in authoring a UHD Bluray version of my project...not quite ready to pull the trigger yet plus the KryptonITe software is just coming out of beta and most likely will have some kinks to iron out.:)
