Gamut Mapping

Select the algorithm used to handle out-of-gamut colors during HDR processing. The available options depend on which pipeline is active.

Void Pipeline

When the Void HDR pipeline is active (use_void_hdr_pipeline = true), the following options are available:

AlgorithmInternal NameDescription
HanahhanahHue-Aware Normalized Adaptive Hermite gamut compression
ACES 1.3aces_1_3ACES 1.3 gamut compression
ClipclipHard clip out-of-gamut colors

Default: hanah

Hanah Quality

When using the Hanah algorithm, a quality level controls the 3D LUT resolution:

QualityDescription
FastLowest resolution LUT, fastest computation
MediumBalanced resolution
HighHigh resolution LUT (default)
UltraMaximum resolution, highest quality

The quality setting is available under Advanced Gamut Mapping > Void > Hanah.

Libplacebo Pipeline

When using the libplacebo pipeline (use_void_hdr_pipeline = false), the standard libplacebo gamut mapping algorithms are available:

AlgorithmInternal NameDescription
ClipclipHard clip out-of-gamut colors
PerceptualperceptualPerceptual softclip mapping
SoftclipsoftclipSoftclip with knee point

AbsoluteabsoluteAbsolute colorimetric clipping
DesaturatedesaturateAdaptive desaturation
DarkendarkenDarken out-of-gamut colors
WarnwarnHighlight out-of-gamut in pink
HighlighthighlightHighlight out-of-gamut by luminance

Default: perceptual

The active algorithm is indicated in the menu. Selecting an option sets hdr.gamut_mapping_function in the config.
