Broadcast Quality. Big Converter Quality, Miniaturized!
Unlike cheap converters, this converter includes the highest quality signal processing and deep bit depth video pipeline.

Static metadata PQ and Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) formats in the VPID are handled according to the ST2108-1, ST2084, and the ST425 standards. This micro converter handles ST425 which defines 2 new bits in the VPID to indicate transfer characteristics of SDR, HLG, or PQ.
