Dynamic HDR format(s) has (have) to be specified by a standardization organization like CTA or DECE.

Sooo,

for us slower folks and ground pounders, perhaps Penton or another professor could help us see why thee big disagreement is taking place over dynamic metadata in this conversation. Is it because it's to be considered for HDR part deux? So it's not a real part of the current approved standard?

Please elaborate on whatever it is that's got all the panties wadded up.
Professor ???
