💠Deep color resolution
💠HFR - High Frame Rate
💠NGA - Next-Gen Audio

@Jakarinho@TVBEurope Note that BBC's policy seems to be to leave 1080p HDR as is, when that's what's provided, such as we can see with Wimbledon:

@Jakarinho@TVBEurope Sorry, my BBC contact indicates the opposite.
"I can assure you that the BBC is taking the full 4K UHD HLG HDR feed from HBS and distributing that via BBC iPlayer in, of course, its native HLG. No upscaling and no transcoding to other HDR formats"
I'll leave the table unchanged.
🇬🇧 BBC will cover every #Wimbledon2026 🎾 match from all 18 courts available live on BBC iPlayer, with Centre Court coverage available "in stunning Ultra HD". That almost certainly means 4K HDR.

Avatar: Fire & Ash is now available in 3D with 4K and Dolby Vision as well as 3D Blu-ray (1080p SDR). The 3D 4K version is better than IMAX or any other cinema format.
However, users must be aware that 3D is currently missing on Disney+ in many EU countries. Here are your options👇🏼

🇳🇱 @TotaalTV laments Dutch public broadcaster NPO's decision to use HD SDR for the FIFA World Cup 2026 because the extreme orange of the national team simply requires Wide Color Gamut WCG and BT.2020 color space, and 'hurts the eyes' in BT.709.

@hdreport@istrakhov@Flatpanels Though I read somewhere that it may have to do with some older devices supporting only profile 5 Dolby Vision, and not profile 8.1 used here. It's possible that it defaults to SDR rather than to HDR10.
