Constants

MFVideoTransFunc_Unknown

Unknown. Treat as MFVideoTransFunc_709.

MFVideoTransFunc_10

Linear RGB (gamma = 1.0).

MFVideoTransFunc_18

True 1.8 gamma, L' = L^1/1.8.

MFVideoTransFunc_20

True 2.0 gamma, L' = L^1/2.0.

MFVideoTransFunc_22

True 2.2 gamma, L' = L^1/2.2. This transfer function is used in ITU-R BT.470-2 System M (NTSC).

MFVideoTransFunc_709

ITU-R BT.709 transfer function. Gamma 2.2 curve with a linear segment in the lower range. This transfer function is used in BT.709, BT.601, SMPTE 296M, SMPTE 170M, BT.470, and SPMTE 274M. In addition BT-1361 uses this function within the range [0...1].

MFVideoTransFunc_240M

SPMTE 240M transfer function. Gamma 2.2 curve with a linear segment in the lower range.

MFVideoTransFunc_sRGB

sRGB transfer function. Gamma 2.4 curve with a linear segment in the lower range.

MFVideoTransFunc_28

True 2.8 gamma. L' = L^1/2.8. This transfer function is used in ITU-R BT.470-2 System B, G (PAL).

MFVideoTransFunc_Log_100

Logarithmic transfer (100:1 range); for example, as used in H.264 video.

Note  Requires Windows 7 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_Log_316

Logarithmic transfer (316.22777:1 range); for example, as used in H.264 video.

Note  Requires Windows 7 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_709_sym

Symmetric ITU-R BT.709.

Note  Requires Windows 7 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_2020_const

Constant luminance ITU-R BT.2020. See Recommendation ITU-R BT.2020-2.

Note  Requires Windows 8 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_2020

Non-constant luminance ITU-R BT.2020. See Recommendation ITU-R BT.2020-2.

Note  Requires Windows 8 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_26

True 2.6 gamma, L’=L^1/2.6

Note  Requires Windows 8 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_2084

SMPTE ST.2084 also known as PQ. Also defined in ITU-R BT.2100

Note  Requires Windows 10, version 1703 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_HLG

Hybrid Log-Gamma, ARIB STD-B67

Note  Requires Windows 10, version 1703 or later.

 

MFVideoTransFunc_Last

Reserved.

MFVideoTransFunc_ForceDWORD

Reserved. This member forces the enumeration type to compile as a DWORD value.

Remarks

These flags are used with the MF_MT_TRANSFER_FUNCTION attribute.

For more information about these values, see the remarks for the DXVA2_VideoTransferFunction enumeration, which is the DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) equivalent of this enumeration.
