High Dynamic Range (HDR) images must be converted to Low Dynamic Range (LDR) to display properly on print media and traditional TV's and Monitors. For better prediction of the colour appearance, a way to describe the algorithm used on the authors side seems desirable. With such a description a viewer can display the HDR content accordingly to the remote media capabilities.
