What are Luminance & Chrominance? It's the information found in the video signal in each of its frames is of two types. On one hand, there is the level of light representing each point of the image, and on the other hand, the color tones.
Luminance is the component that receives the information with all the luminous intensity and represents the image in black and white with all the tones through the grayscale; it does not contain information about the colors of the image. On the contrary, Chrominance comprises the RGB channels, that is, red, green, and blue, representing the combination of the three primary colors.
The National Channels Consortium, composed of RCN and CRCTV, requests that all materials sent to them comply with the following standards regarding Luminance and Chrominance:
Luminance Levels:
- Maximum 700 mV for White levels
- Minimum 0 mV for Black levels
- RGB 16 to 235 colors
Chrominance Levels:
- They must not exceed 235 mV.
Note: All values must be adjusted taking into account the color bar pattern SMTPE-RP-219-2002
Keep these video settings in mind when exporting your materials for submission to the Consortium through Peach Connect.
