# Converting one SDR color space to another
<a name="color-space-convert-f"></a>

You can convert an SDR color space to another SDR color space. In this case, Elemental Live makes the following changes:
+ It changes pixels to values that represent the same color as the original values. The video now fits in the larger color space.
+ It changes the color space metadata to identify the new color space. 
+ It applies the same brightness function to the video, because all the SDR color spaces use the same function.

After the conversion, the video complies completely with the new color space.
