The Path From 1080p to HDR Is More Layered Than It Seems
In Episode 3 of The Front Row Podcast, we’re back with part two of our conversation with Jason Dustal, who brings over 25 years of expertise as an ISF trainer, Level 3 calibrator, CTS certified professional, CEDIA certified instructor, and Certified for Envy Product Specialist.
This time, we dig deeper into the video technology and how we went from 1080p LED TVs to today’s 4K HDR display. We talk through the differences between HDR formats, what makes Dolby Vision unique, what bit depth really means, and why it matters. We also get into tone mapping and how it can make or break your HDR experience.
We got a lot of great feedback on Episode 2, so it only made sense to keep the conversation going. We cover a lot in this one, and if you care about getting the best out of your TV, it’s definitely one you won’t want to miss!
We want to give a big thank you to our podcast sponsor, Anthem Electronics. Anthem isn’t just about power, it’s about precision. From clean amplification to intelligent room calibration, every element is engineered to deliver pure, articulate sound. Unlock the performance your system was made for.
Anthem – Elevate. Refine. Enhance
