High Dynamic Range (HDR) / Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG)

Using this feature the TV can reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity by capturing and then combining several different exposures. HDR/HLG promises better picture quality thanks to brighter, more realistic highlights, more realistic colours and other improvements. It delivers the look that filmmakers intended to achieve, showing the hidden areas of dark shadows and sunlight with full clarity, colour and detail. HDR/HLG contents are supported via native and market applications, HDMI, USB inputs and DVB-S broadcasts. When the input source is set to the related HDMI input press the Menu button and set the HDMI EDID Version option in the TV Options>Settings>Device Preferences>Inputs menu as EDID 2.0 or Auto EDID in order to watch HDR/HLG content, if the HDR/HLG content is received through an HDMI input. The source device should also be at least HDMI 2.0a compatible in this case.

Dolby Vision

Dolby Vision™ delivers a dramatic visual experience, astonishing brightness, exceptional contrast, and vivid colour, that brings entertainment to life. It achieves this stunning image quality by combining HDR and wide colour gamut imaging technologies. By increasing the brightness of the original signal and using a higher dynamic colour and contrast range, Dolby Vision presents amazing true-to-life images with stunning detail that other post-processing technologies in the TV aren’t able to produce. Dolby Vision is supported via native and market applications, HDMI and USB inputs. When the input source is set to the related HDMI input press the Menu button and set the HDMI EDID Version option in the TV Options>Settings>Device Preferences>Inputs menu as EDID 2.0 or Auto EDID in order to watch Dolby Vision content, if the Dolby Vision content is received through an HDMI input. The source device should also be at least HDMI 2.0a compatible in this case. In the Picture Mode menu, two predefined picture modes will be available if Dolby Vision content is detected: Dolby Vision Bright and Dolby Vision Dark. Both allow the user to experience the content in the way the creator originally intended with different ambient lighting conditions. To change the Picture Mode setting press the Menu button while watching the Dolby Vision content and go to the Picture menu. Vision Content via an application, except YouTube, Netflix and Multi-Media Player, you will not be able to access the Picture menu and set the Picture Mode.
