ProPhoto RGB to xvYCC Converter - Color Space Converter

ProPhoto RGB color space introduction

Also known as the ProPhoto RGB color space.There are 3 channels in total, Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
ProPhoto RGB, also known as ROMM RGB (Reference Output Medium Metric), was developed by Kodak. It offers an exceptionally wide gamut, designed for use in professional photography to ensure reproducibility of most colors found in nature.
ProPhoto RGB color space.
In the ProPhoto RGB color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, with a gamut much wider than traditional sRGB.
ProPhoto RGB is primarily used in the field of professional photography, particularly suitable for processing images with high dynamic range and wide color gamut.
Due to its vast gamut, ProPhoto RGB is especially suited for high-end image processing and printing tasks that require extreme color fidelity.

xvYCC color space introduction

Also known as the xvYCC color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 255.Cb,range from 0 to 255.Cr,range from 0 to 255.
xvYCC was developed by Sony and standardized by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in 2005. It is an expansion over the standard YCbCr color space, designed to support a wider range of colors for high-definition video.
The main name is xvYCC, also known as IEC 61966-2-4 or extended-gamut YCC.
Similar to YCbCr, xvYCC is typically expressed as three component values (Y, Cb, Cr). However, xvYCC uses a signaling method that enables it to represent a broader range of colors. This includes values for Cb and Cr that, unlike YCbCr, can exceed the nominal range of video levels, going below 16 or above 235 in 8-bit terms.
xvYCC is used primarily in high-definition video formats and devices such as Blu-ray players, digital cameras, and HDTVs that support HDMI 1.3 or higher. It allows for more vivid and accurate color representation on capable devices.
xvYCC can display a wider range of color values than sRGB by allowing values that fall outside the typical RGB gamut. It achieves this by using the same color encoding method as YCbCr but permits values in the signaling that exceed the range of the BT.601 or BT.709 color spaces.
