FF Pictures launches HDRmaster 8K, a new standalone software toolset for Microsoft Windows 8 and 10 with several innovative features for performing quality analysis and essential metadata tasks on HDR productions up to 8K (7680 × 4320 pixels) resolution. HDRmaster 8K is the successor to HDRmaster v2 which is already in use in Ultra-HD Blu-ray facilities, post houses, studios and manufacturers worldwide.
To deliver the highest possible quality to the consumer HDR device, proper management of metadata and signal levels is essential. Poor management not only leads to compromised images, but also reduces encoding efficiency, resulting in excessive bandwidth overhead and unnecessary compression artifacts.
HDRmaster 8K is designed to allow anyone in the industry to verify in detail whether HDR delivery files have proper HDR levels and metadata. This includes tools to measure and visualize problems such as signal clipping in luminance range or color gamut. While experts will be delighted with the wide range of functions, even non-experts can use this tool immediately thanks to a new feature called “HDR Inspector”. This preset is designed to automatically perform all necessary tasks at the touch of a button. This includes the unique feature of creating suggested static and dynamic metadata based on image analysis.
With 8K displays coming to market and HDR at the forefront of video productions today, it is time to validate and optimize all aspects of video quality. HDRmaster 8K can not only meet 4K production and distribution needs; it is also ready for 8K.
