Netflix expands HDR support with HDR10+
- Netflix announced that it is adding support for HDR10+ streaming, making it their second supported dynamic HDR format in addition to Dolby Vision and HDR10.
- HDR, which enhances picture quality by producing images with higher brightness and a wider range of colors, has become a defining feature for modern TV and movies, especially on streaming services.
- Netflix is enabling HDR10+ with the AV1 codec, which was originally released in 2018 and is gradually becoming the standard for streaming 4K video efficiently.
- While Dolby Vision enjoys wider adoption, Netflix's decision to support HDR10+ is significant for Samsung owners and HDR viewers with devices that do not support Dolby Vision.
- Netflix hopes to eventually offer all HDR content in the new format, with HDR streaming having increased by more than 300 percent since 2020, and the number of devices streaming Netflix and supporting HDR more than doubling.
