1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage media, wherein the storage media comprises computer instructions which, when executed by a processor, allow the processor to:
receive source video signals to generate coded image data;
generate output metadata associated with the coded image data;
generate a bitstream comprising the coded image data and the output metadata, wherein the output metadata comprise a first set of metadata and a second set of metadata, wherein:
the first set of metadata is associated with a portion of the image data and comprises one or more parameters representing characteristics of a reference display device that is used during creation of the image data to color grade the video signals, the parameters including:
a. a white point for the reference display,
b. three primaries for the reference display, and
c. at least one luminance level for the reference display; and
the second set of metadata is associated with the same portion of the image data and includes at least a maximum luminance level for the image data.
