Method of color correcting digital video data
First Claim
1. A method of colour correcting digital video data, comprising the steps of providing a workstation connected to a source of digital video data, analyzing video data at the workstation and making decisions relating to colour corrections to be applied to the video data, generating colour correction parameter data corresponding to the decisions, transmitting the video data and the corresponding colour correction parameter data to a remote colour processor for applying colour corrections to the digital video data, applying colour corrections to the digital video data in accordance with the correction parameter data, and returning the colour corrected video data from the colour processor.

10. A method of colour correcting digital video data, comprising the steps of providing a plurality of workstations each connected to a respective source of digital video data, analysing video data at the workstations and making decisions relating to the colour corrections to be applied to the video data, generating colour correction parameter data corresponding to the decisions, transmitting the respective video data and the corresponding colour correction parameter data to a remote colour processor for applying colour corrections to the digital video data in accordance with the corrected video data from the colour processor, wherein the colour processor comprises multiple colour correction engines, an integer number (n1) of which are capable of being used together to process high resolution data from one of the workstations, and a smaller integer number (n2) of which are capable of being used independently to process lower resolution data simultaneously from a plurality of the workstations.
