This full-sized player pulls together everything we know about great sound & beautiful pictures. Unique chroma processing gets the most from UHD HDR content and ensures your 4K TV will shine. Our Hollywood Cinema Experience, or HCX, picture processor is now inside our new UHD Blu-ray Players. Our years of picture know-how & collaboration with Hollywood studios, are captured in this chip to deliver precise colour and picture definition. Our Ultra HD Blu-ray Players support multiple HDR formats, such as HDR10, which is the standard HDR format for films, and UHD Blu-ray discs. The new UB820 supports HDR playback of HDR10+ dynamic metadata, the next-generation standard. And it is compatible with Dolby Vison and Hybrid Log-Gamma. The synergistic effect achieved with our original high-quality image technologies enables even more precise image expression. Our original image processing technologies achieve HDR images with higher definition than before. Tone mapping is used to adjust the brightness level of the content. And even HDR images from ordinary HDR10 and TV footage, which do not support special new formats like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, provide optimal playback. Technology from Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory, the base for Blu-ray Disc Research & Development, are applied to our unique 4K High Precision Chroma Processing. 4K image colour signals (4:2:0) are interpolated into 4K (4:4:4) by a multi-tap chroma process, for natural texture and depth.
