Overview

The display encoding step prepare the colorimetry from the rendering portion of the Output Transform for the expected decoding operators of a given display. Colorimetry is encoded relative to the selected color gamut (i.e. color primaries and white chromaticity) of the display and using the inverse EOTF.
