HDR10+ Video technology that adds dynamic metadata to HDR10 source files

HDR10+ is a high dynamic range (HDR) video technology that adds dynamic metadata to HDR10 source files. HDR10+ signals the dynamic range and scene characteristics on a scene-by-scene or even frame-by-frame basis. The display device then uses the dynamic metadata to apply an appropriate tone map through the process of dynamic tone mapping. Dynamic tone mapping differs from static tone mapping by applying a different tone curve from scene-to-scene rather than use a single tone curve for an entire video. HDR10+ is the default variant of dynamic metadata as part of the HDMI 2.1 standard.
