HDR

HDR tone mapping is the process of adapting high-dynamic-range images or videos for display on screens with limited brightness and contrast. It compresses extreme highlights and shadows while preserving details, color accuracy, and visual realism. Without tone mapping, HDR content often looks either washed out or overly dark.

To covert HDR to SDR, you can use professional video editing software such as UniFab or Final Cut Pro, oline HDR to SDR converters like Convertio, and free apps including iMovie or Samsung Galaxy Built-in Editor. All these tools rely on tone mapping—a process that narrows down HDR's dynamic range and broader color spectrum to match the constraints of the SDR standard.

Amazon Prime Video still supports HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision, but Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos are now available only with the ad-free plan. This guide explains how to find Dolby Vision titles, enable HDR on compatible TVs and devices, understand Prime Video's 2024 restrictions, and use UniFab HDR Upconverter AI to enhance or convert SDR content when HDR playback isn't supported on your device or plan.

AVCLabs is usually the better choice for users who want a simple, automated, and budget-friendly tool, especially since it offers both subscription and lifetime plans for photo and video enhancement. Topaz, on the other hand, is ideal for those who need detailed control, advanced tools like stabilization and motion deblur, and are willing to pay for a more premium, feature-packed program, even if it comes with a more complex, node-based interface.
