Hi,
Thanks for comments.
What bothers is why Photoshop says it's sRGB if it's not?
Or is this future stuff, like R.B. suggests?
- And yes, I recall YCC form PhotoCD, too. Did YCC have something to do
with TV-technology, as PhotoCD was originally meant to be viewed via a
TV set?

sYCC is news to me. But I would not investigate it further, personnally,
