You didn't have to care about colorspaces &lt;a class="brackets" href="https://kitsunemimi.pw/notes/posts/transcoding-a-hdr-video-with-tonemapping.html#footnote-1" id="footnote-reference-1" role="doc-noteref"&gt;&lt;span class="fn-bracket"&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;1&lt;span class="fn-bracket"&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, it would display fine everywhere and working with it was painless.
Ok, this is oversimplified. But you get the point.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With HDR it's not so simple anymore: To display it a process called tonemapping
needs to be applied and you even need a HDR-capable output device in order for
a meaningful difference to be visible (compared to SDR, &lt;em&gt;Standard Dynamic Range&lt;/em&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
