Nvidia has launched a brand new AI-powered device referred to as ‘RTX Video HDR’ that makes use of AI to transform SDR movies taking part in in your web browser to HDR robotically.
The characteristic is a part of Nvidia’s new 551.23 Game Ready Driver replace and is offered on all GeForce RTX GPUs. To make use of RTX Video HDR you’ll additionally want an HDR10-compatible monitor and HDR enabled in Home windows.
Nvidia launched a comparability video to point out off the characteristic’s results.
“Utilizing the ability of Tensor Cores on GeForce RTX GPUs, RTX Video HDR permits avid gamers and creators to maximise their HDR panel’s skill to show vivid, dynamic colours, preserving intricate particulars which may be inadvertently misplaced attributable to video compression,” Nvidia said in a blog post.
To allow RTX Video HDR head into Nvidia Management Panel and navigate to ‘Video,’ then ‘Alter video picture settings,’ then underneath ‘RTX video enhancement,’ activate ‘Tremendous Decision’ and ‘Excessive Dynamic Vary.’
This characteristic might show helpful if you happen to primarily use an HDR monitor to look at video content material on-line because it robotically converts all of the SDR content material.
Because the characteristic makes use of Nvidia’s AI expertise, it depends on the Tensor Cores present in an RTX-20 collection GPU or above. Nvidia’s RTX GPUs additionally produce other AI-powered options like DLSS and RTX Video Super Resolution.
DLSS is a picture upscaler that renders video games at decrease resolutions after which upscales them with AI to larger resolutions like 4K. This makes it much less intensive for the GPU to output a higher-resolution picture.
Utilizing AI, RTX Video Tremendous Decision can upscale low-resolution movies on Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge to 4K.
The discharge of RTX Video HDR comes alongside the discharge of the brand new RTX 4070 Ti Tremendous announced by Nvidia at CES. The RTX 4070 Tremendous launched on January seventeenth and the RTX 4080 Tremendous launches on January thirty first.
