Ah, thank you! That's what I've been missing to understand....
OpenEXR is linear, unlike DPX, precisely so it can be used in the VFX
environment. I was mixing “artificial” luminance values with color
spaces. Now I also understand the values above 1.0 read by the
eydropper tool, which was the thing that confused me the most.
At this point I would be really curious how CinGG plugins work with
hardware and HDR media.
