well they are trying ... I have attended a couple of the ICC digital Cinema working group meetings now so they have some understanding of the issues we care about. I guess in the post world most people avoided ICC solutions because they were too complex (processing wise) for the requirements we had. More recently I know a number of places have looked at ICC based solutions but found for whatever reason that they didn't work. This time the ICC have obviously attempted to work out why. More generally: It is worth noting that despite what is considered 'accepted fact' within some industries the video and film world doesn't always agree (you can read this many ways of course :-) but in the real world a great deal of care needs to be taken in understanding the meaning of 'enough bits', 'linear', 'black', 'white', 'gamma', 'dynamic range' etc before you even think about what to do with the colour. I'll also make a point that not all the information on the various websites are always correct, mainly due to the assumptions not being explicit. Our website in particular features older documents that are not clear on some points but that are really hard to change due to IP clearance, etc. Kevin -- | Kevin Wheatley, Cinesite (Europe) Ltd | Nobody thinks this | | Senior Technology | My employer for certain | | And Network Systems Architect | Not even myself | ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
