The present disclosure is directed to a process to partially or fully suppress, or limit, pixel coloration errors. These pixel coloration errors, represented by small noise values, can be introduced during signal processing of high dynamic range (HDR) video signals. Converting visual content to a half precision floating point representation, for example, FP16, can introduce small amounts of signal noise due to value rounding. The noise can be multiplied and accumulated during HDR signal processing resulting in visual artifacts and degraded image quality. The disclosure can detect these noise amounts in pixel color component values, and suppress, or partially suppress, the noise to prevent the noise from accumulating during subsequent HDR signal processing.

A client device for decrypting and decoding media assets through a secure data path. The client device includes a host core and global memory in a common execution environment and a secure core and restricted memory in a secure execution environment. The secure core generates a license challenge only in the context of the secure execution environment and processes a license challenge response that includes a media content decryption key only in the context of the secure execution environment. The secure core decrypts a protected media asset using the media content decryption key only in the context of the secure execution environment such that the decryption key and decrypted media asset will not be in global memory thereby protecting the media asset from unauthorized access.
