Description
Currently the VideoColorSpace: matrix property supports the following values:
- "rgb"
Matrix coefficients used by sRGB. - "bt709"
Matrix coefficients used by BT.709. - "bt470bg"
Matrix coefficients used by BT.601 PAL. - "smpte170m"
Matrix coefficients used by BT.601 NTSC.
It is known that:
- At least H.264/MPEG-4 AVC and HEVC are fully supporting such color space
- It has good coding gain (at least comparable to ycbcr/bt.601 with full range)
- Conversion from/to rgb color space should be faster than with ycbcr/bt.601 since it results in additions/shifts for integer arithmetic, or just multiplies by 0.25 and 0.5 for float ones)
Are there any plans to support such color space?
Thanks,
Fabio

Research direction
Start with the VideoColorSpace.matrix definition and the existing rgb, bt709, bt470bg, and smpte170m values. Determine the standards and implementation changes needed to represent YCoCg, then verify that the new matrix value is supported and its RGB conversions behave as intended.
