Patent ID: 8760461

Claim:
An integrated circuit chip comprising: a content processing system configured to: receive input image data having color information encoded in accordance with a first format associated with a first color gamut; determine that input image data is encoded in the first format; receive sink device color gamut support capability and image modification capability information from a sink device in communication with the chip, and transmit output image data from the chip to the sink device, the output image data being encoded in one of the first format or a second format; a decision module configured to determine whether the output image data is transmitted to the sink device in one of the first format or the second format, the determination based on the color gamut support capability and image modification capability information received from the sink device, and a modification module configured to enable the selective modification of the input image data from the first color gamut to the second color gamut associated with the output image data, wherein the modification is performed in accordance with instruction from the decision module.
