Less than a year after its launch, HDR10+ ADVANCED has now been licensed and certified for use on nearly 500 devices. All of these devices support a variety of HDR10+ ADVANCED content, including the latest movies and TV titles from Prime Video.
Prime Video viewers can now simply look for the format logo on the title’s detail page when using a compatible television or display to select HDR10+ ADVANCED viewing. Benefits of HDR10+ dynamic metadata includes improved brightness and contrast, easy implementation, worldwide certification, and no licensing fees.
New Features of HDR10+ ADVANCED
HDR10+ ADVANCED provides creatives with a number of exciting new features that can be enjoyed on compatible products.
- Enhanced Overall Brightness – Extended statistical metadata is provided to produce better image tonality. Adopters can utilize this to achieve greater brightness that can be experienced on today’s most advanced televisions.
- Intelligent Motion Smoothing – This metadata feature is used to reduce the effects of visible “judder” in a given scene, by allowing compatible displays to dynamically adjust the amount of motion “smoothing” that is applied.
- Local Tone Mapping – Allows creators to achieve greater brightness control in specific areas of the screen, adding more overall depth and detail.
- Genre-based Optimization – A new metadata tool enables content providers and encoders to create “customized” genres dynamically. The display can then optimize picture processing and tailor it to each type of content.
- Advanced Color Control – HDR10+ ADVANCED enables content creators to dynamically calculate color gamut data, for more accurate reproduction.
- Adaptive Cloud Gaming – In addition to compatibility with HDR10+ GAMING picture mode, HDR10+ ADVANCED supports cloud-based games with real-time ambient light adaptation, creating a more engaging user experience.
