  • Patent number: 12035515
    Abstract: A robust, reliable, and efficient UHD HDR Internet Protocol IP client device, such as a set top box, receives content, for example, from a cable service provider so that the content can be displayed to a compatible display device with improved visual effect. The content is 4K or higher content that requires UHD/HDR for a satisfactory user experience. The UHD provides for an improved resolution of the content while HDR provides for a more intense or greater contrast range of the content when displayed on a compatible display device.
