AJA FS8 BBC HLG LUTs perpetual license

AJA FS8 BBC HLG LUTs License

This perpetual license adds the BBC HLG LUTs mode to the AJA FS8 hybrid SDI/IP media processor. It offers additional, field-proven HDR conversion options, particularly for television broadcasters who are looking for specific conversion criteria, with mathematical HLG HDR dynamic range mapping per ITU BT.2408.

Once licensed, each FS8 video processor can independently select the BBC HLG LUTs as its color transform. The mode includes an RGB color corrector and proc amp to correct the signal before conversion, and uses 33-point tetrahedral 3D LUT interpolation.
