Abstract
An electronic device may be provided with a display. The display may be configured to display standard dynamic range image content and high dynamic range image content at the same time. The control circuitry may dynamically adjust an amount of headroom for the high dynamic range image content to avoid washing out the standard dynamic range image content. For example, the control circuitry may reduce the amount of headroom available for high dynamic range image content with high average pixel luminance levels and low screen coverage. The headroom may be increased as the average pixel luminance levels decrease and/or as screen coverage increases. Different high dynamic range images that are displayed at the same time may be assigned different amounts of headroom (e.g., different peak brightness levels) based on average pixel luminance values, screen coverage, whether or not the content is within an active window on the display, etc.
