Dolby Vision Profile 3 (Legacy)
Dolby Vision Profile 3 is a legacy dual-layer eight-bit HEVC format without a standard HDR10 or SDR-compatible base.
Dolby Vision Profile 3 is a legacy dual-layer HEVC arrangement. Dolby lists it among profiles not supported for new applications; the record is useful when identifying older material.
| Legacy property | Profile 3 |
|---|---|
| Coded precision | Eight-bit HEVC |
| Picture structure | Base plus enhancement |
| Layer resolution relationship | Equal resolution |
| Base compatibility | No standard HDR10 or SDR fallback |
An archived file using this arrangement needs its own supported interpretation or a real conversion. Current support for another Dolby Vision profile does not establish Profile 3 capability. Because the base has no standard HDR10/SDR interpretation, discarding the additional Dolby Vision information does not create either output. Keep the original and its complete profile record when preparing a supported viewing rendition.
