Warner Bros. to release 35 movies in 4K Blu-ray
Mainly, they’re doing this in the form of a new 4K Blu-ray player that can finally do what the company’s prototype machine promised at CES 2015 a year ago.
Ultrahigh-definition TVs can display TV shows and movies at four times the resolution of standard high-definition sets.
4K televisions have steadily been gaining market share and streaming services are already churning out content to match.
As part of the UHD Alliance’s new Premium certification, the screen needs to be capable of delivering a good HDR experience and Panasonic’s new Honeycomb panel structure has been created to help this LCD display meet the necessarily high HDR luminance levels without compromising on the depth of its blacks.
Warner Bros.’ Ultra HD Blu-ray Discs will feature 4K resolution, High Dynamic Range for enhanced picture vibrancy and color contrast, a wider range of available colors, smoother color transitions, and immersive audio on select titles.
Really, the most surefire way to be guaranteed you’re watching 4K content is by watching it on disc. Well, you’re in luck: The Ultra HD Blu-ray format has been confirmed for a few months, and now the first players are coming out. It’s a seal of approval for consumers to trust, members said.
“It also boasts incredibly life-like images with 4K UHD playback”, adds Samsung.
Ron Sanders, president of worldwide home entertainment distribution for Warner Bros. With 4K Ultra HD TVs now available for purchase, studios are responding with new releases of movie titles as Ultra HD Blu-ray discs.
The Ultra HD Premium badge, which was itself announced at CES 2016 on Monday, is awarded by the Ultra HD Alliance, made up of 35 companies ranging from TV manufacturers to entertainment companies like Disney, Amazon and Netflix.
