The company has expanded its HDR support to live streaming, offering users a “vibrant real-time experience.”
YouTube began offering high dynamic range support back in 2016. However, it was limited to pre-recorded content only. The company has now expanded its support for HDR to live to stream, offering users a “vibrant real-time experience.”
YouTube has reached a new level of realism. HDR support added to live broadcasts
High dynamic range technology allows for a brighter and more vibrant picture on supported devices, so now content creators, with the appropriate cameras, can delight their viewers with live video of the highest quality available at the moment.
To watch live HDR broadcasts, viewers can use the YouTube app on high dynamic range smart TVs, devices, smartphones with HDR screens, a Chromecast Ultra player, and PCs and laptops with matching displays.
If your device does not support high dynamic range, you will not see the HDR option in the video quality settings menu, but you will still watch the broadcast video in standard quality.
