Netflix Brings HDR10+ Streaming to AV1-Enabled TVs

Netflix Premium users with suitable devices may now access video in HDR10+. Like the proprietary Dolby Vision format, HDR10+ uses dynamic information to improve image quality above regular HDR10. With this introduction, it now offers HDR10+ streaming for more accurate and dynamic image quality. Customers with a streaming subscription that qualifies will be able to watch movies and TV series in higher definition, with more vivid colors and contrast. Additionally, the streaming service plans to add additional HDR10+ material to its library. The AV1 media codec, which provides effective bandwidth consumption on compatible devices, is also used by Netflix.

The streaming service declared in a blog post on a site says that it is now offering HDR10+ streaming. Customers with the most costly Netflix subscription may watch material on TVs and streaming devices that are compatible. Compared to HDR10 content, HDR10+ delivers better dynamic range and image quality.

For many years, some of Netflix’s content has been compatible with Dolby Vision and conventional HDR10. Nevertheless, several TV makers, such as Samsung, have chosen to offer HDR10+ on their high-end smart TVs rather than Dolby Vision. While some TV makers opt to offer both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, this isn’t always the case. Most people agree that Dolby Vision is better than HDR10+.

One of the most crucial characteristics of HDR10+ video is dynamic metadata, which enables a user’s device to automatically alter the image quality in real time depending on each scene. In contrast, HDR10 employs a one-size-fits-all strategy that fails to provide the same contrast and vivid colours as HDR10+ material.

The streaming platform states that the AV1 video codec will be used to offer HDR10+ content to these devices. In contrast to previous codecs, this effective one uses less data, allowing Netflix to deliver high-quality videos with minimal buffering on slower networks. Since November 2021, Netflix has been utilizing AV1 for standard dynamic range (SDR) video.

You must have a Netflix Premium membership plan in order to view HDR10+ content. The monthly cost of Netflix Premium in India is Rs. 649 (7.58 USD) while In the United States, the current cost of this plan is $24.99 and up to four devices can view and streaming with spatial audio is now available to you with 4K (Ultra HD) and HDR video with this package. Additionally, you’ll need a smart TV that supports HDR10+ video or a streaming device like a tablet or smartphone.

The material you’re watching must be in the HDR10+ format, even if you have a suitable TV and an expensive subscription. Devices should, maybe most crucially, support HDR10+ and AV1. According to Netflix, HDR10+ access is being extended on the service, giving customers access to higher-quality viewing. By the end of the year, the service intends to offer all of its HDR content in HDR10+. Having said that, you can always utilize the Netflix website to verify compatibility if you’re unsure if your device supports HDR10.

Netflix stated on its Technology blog that “the number of devices with HDR configurations watching Netflix has more than doubled in the last five years, while HDR streaming has increased by more than 300%.” “Netflix now offers over 11,000 hours of HDR titles for members to immerse themselves in since launching HDR with season one of Marco Polo.”

Similar to Dolby Vision, HDR10+ optimizes tone mapping changes for every scene by using dynamic metadata rather than static metadata. Only devices that support the AV1 video codec—which Netflix anticipates will overtake H.264/AVC as the most widely used codec on the platform owing to its greater efficiency—will be able to access HDR10+ material on Netflix.

By the end of this year, Netflix hopes to have all of its HDR content available in HDR10+. The firm has begun adding support for HDR10+ to both new and old HDR movies. You’ll need a Netflix Premium membership and a Smart TV, streaming device, phone, or tablet that satisfies Netflix certification for HDR10+ in order to watch Netflix content in HDR10+ (also known as Dolby Vision or standard HDR10).

This is essentially the beginning of something new, and although Netflix has had some success with HDR10 content in the past, adoption could improve significantly as more devices support the format. Fortunately, progress is being made, as even streaming behemoths like YouTube are switching to AV1.
