I just realized that ordering might be an issue. Or it might not. If gainmap information comes after IDATs, a browser might display an SDR image during download and then...
We might be able to interleave gDAT and IDAT chunks. I need to double check this against existing decoders and the spec. But right now, I think it would work....
Fundamentally, because competition is good. You mentioned backwards compatibility. And you mentioned that perhaps it should be given more weight. I might be able to provide some examples to justify...
Shoot. Good find. Thank you.
IIUC for Options A & B you're considering nesting chunks, right? I think most PNG decoders would need some work to support nesting. And we would need to specify nesting...
This is not my area of expertise so please correct my knowledge gaps. My understanding is the SDR base image is itself a good image to use on SDR displays....
That first link for the proposed new fmAP chunk allows up to 79 bytes for the fragment name. Is there a reason to limit it's size?
I realized that several chunks have Latin-1 strings up to 79 bytes. For example, the [iCCP profile name](https://www.w3.org/TR/PNG/#11iCCP) or [tEXt chunk's keyword field](https://www.w3.org/TR/PNG/#11tEXt). So the 79 byte fragment name might...
Assigning to CS as discussed last meeting.
Also adding Simon.
