HDR Vivid is a high dynamic range (HDR) video technology standard released by the China Ultra-High Definition Video Industry Alliance (CUVA). Compared to traditional technologies, HDR Vivid offers more realistic images, richer color reproduction, deeper shadow details, and more refined highlight processing. With vivid layers and a more dimensional presentation, it makes the image more lifelike.‌

For those who have not yet upgrade the latest beta firmware (v1.1.80), pls do not proceed as there has been a serious bug which caused video to freeze randomly. The Zidoo team is working on a fix as we speak.
