Note
LG Super UHD and OLED TVs support both HDR10 and Dolby Vision™*, delivering the look that filmmakers intended, while assuring playability of current and upcoming HDR streaming content, such as Netflix.
HDR Content - Filmmakers strive to tell stories with the greatest believability possible. There are several steps in the creation process: Images are captured by a camera, then post-produced (edited, color-corrected, etc.), and then mastered — the critical "finishing touches" — before a movie or show is delivered to viewers.
