Chromecast dynamic range output

j4r3k — Sun, 29 Oct 2023 11:32:49 GMT

Is there any information about what range of dynamic the Chromecast outputs? Is it 0-255 (like a PC) or 16-255 (like a Bluray player). My projector has a setting for dynamic range with these two options.

Does setting the YCbCr means it's 16-235 and RBG means 0-255?

Hi j4r3k,

Thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. We’re sorry for the delay in response. I’m in the middle of trying to identify if your question is just too technical for me to understand or if I’m just overthinking. Is this related to the IP address for static IP assignment, especially on the last octet? Or is this related to HDR? What is the objective for this, and what are you trying to do or achieve? Just an honest question, so we'll be on the same page. Kindly give us more details. We look forward to your response.

Thanks,

Kimy

I figured it out since then. Question was about the display settings. If you set the RGB output it means the signal will be like from the PC - full dynamic range 0-255. The YCbCr means it will be like from Bluray player - limited range 16-235.
