get better and better with upgrades.
"Our encoding engine 1.0 supported 4mbps streaming since the initial launch. The new encoding engine (we are actually on 3.13 now) is far more efficient and we are encoding video at 3.6mbps. What the 3.x engine gives us is
- 3 pass hevc encoding
- Much better quality at low bit rates (compare our 4mbit stream to Netflix 15, quality are on par)
- Ability to handle HDR
- Ability to handle 60fps
- Ability to handle multisegmented DASH encodes for multiple platforms
- Interleaved audio for better decoding performance on low powered tvs
- Ability to support new platforms (nVidia shield, HiSense, LG and more)
You can’t “upgrade” movies to HDR. You can only put out HDR on those movies that have enough color in the original scan. That said, when I originally set out the scanning specification we have always had HDR in mind, so everything that we have scanned can be converted to HDR. Our scanning process involves taking 11 images of every frame of film (3 light levels of red, green, blue and 2 light levels of white) This is combined into an HDR 16 bit image. From there we downstep it to 8bit, 10bit or 12bit depending on the target platform. 4K Studios has recently upgraded all three locations with new editing workstations and THX calibrated displays in order to start outputting HDR video. We have been approved by Dolby to support DolbyVision TVs and Atmos audio and we are finalizing our support for Samsung HDR as well. HDR films will start appearing soon on HDR enabled sets."
