Gamuts :
- Rec 709: HD primaries (in theory at least)
- SMPTE RP 145: SMPTE-C primaries (US/Japan SD/ HD) => used for NTSC and 90% of the Blu-Rays(confirmed by the CEO of the ISF)
- EBU Tech. 3213: EBU primaries (Europe SD/HD) => used for PAL/SECAM and european Blu-rays

Wait… you're basically telling us that there is no way to know for sure which gamut to use based on information in the source? Meaning we can never be sure that we're using the right gamut and getting the right color? That's quite shocking…
