A video coder is configured to encode video data, wherein one or more pixels of the encoded video data is used to signal in-band a luminance adjustment value for configuring an overall luminance of the displayed video data. In addition, the video data for pixels of the video data are scaled based upon the luminance adjustment value to compensate for the changed overall luminance. By signaling the luminance adjustment value in-band as part of the encoded video data, the need for a separate control channel is reduced, while also simplifying synchronization between the luminance adjustment value and the frame of video data to which it applies. The display may extract and parse the signaled luminance adjustment value to control a parameter of the display device (e.g., driving voltage, supply current, duty cycle, etc.) to achieve the overall luminance level indicated by the luminance adjustment value.

An optical scanning apparatus includes first and second light source units including respective light sources; a rotating polygon mirror that performs deflection scanning of laser beams emitted from the light sources included in the first and second light source units; and a positioning member including a first abutting portion on which the first light source unit abuts and a second abutting portion on which the second light source unit abuts, the positioning member positioning the first and second light source units. The first and second light source units are positioned by the positioning member and arranged next to each other in a rotation axis direction of the rotating polygon mirror. The positioning member is a single member disposed between the first and second light source units in the rotation axis direction.
