How does DIVA 5 handle image quality?
DIVA Player supports the device's base video player. This means if the device in use supports HDR and or 4K, DIVA Player presents content in this format. It's important to note that content must be produced in HDR/4K format and the HDR device settings must be enabled.
What is High Dynamic Range (HDR)?
High Dynamic Range (HDR) presents a higher contrast, wider color gamut and brightness range than Standard Dynamic Range (SDR). Benefits include greater contrast between light and dark areas without overexposing, greatly improving viewing experience even on small screen devices.
What is 4K?
The term 4K is often interchanged with Ultra HD (UHD). Both refer to the horizontal screen resolution of a device, meaning the number of pixels that can fit on the screen (approximately 4,000). Content in 4K tends to present a sharper and better defined picture.
