The new breakthroughs of high dynamic range (HDR) technology have boosted the development of ultra-high-definition televisions (Ultra-HD TVs), and the evaluation standard of HDR video plays a significant role. But owing to the imperfect technique and standards, the current high-end products can hardly reach the requirements of Ultra-HD TVs. To improve the HDR assessment technique, a grading method for consumer-oriented products which balances the subjective and objective assessment is proposed to evaluate the HDR performance of Ultra-HD TVs. The subjective assessment is based on existing HDR standards, and the peak brightness, dynamic range, color gamut coverage and the absolute deviation of the electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) constitute the objective evaluation. With the proposed method, the videos which quality between the SDR and HDR standards can be divided into 3 or 4 grades by 4 metrics. The statistical results expound that many Ultra-HD TVs in the consumer-oriented market performs better than the HDR access standard, but still far from the professional-level, and the experiment results certify that the proposed method is an effective standard and can facilitate the standardized development on HDR performance of Ultra-HD TVs.
