- Apple, Google, and NBCUniversal developed the new HDR video standard Eclipsa Video in partnership with SMPTE.
- Eclipsa Video, marketed as ST 2094-50, is administered by the HDR10+ consortium as an open-source alternative to Dolby Vision.
- The standard ensures consistent video quality across devices by using metadata for baseline reference and adaptive gain curves.
- Initial rollout targets smartphones, tablets, laptops, and PCs, with TV support to follow, and is linked to AV2 codec developments.
- Eclipsa Video raises questions about its relationship with Dolby Vision 2 and HDR10+, given Peacock's adoption of Dolby Vision 2.
