4K and now HDR are the hot topics du jour. But if we switch on new services what happens to the current ones?
Mark Horton takes us on a journey through this topic where not everything is necessarily what it seems, covering 4K, HDR, WCG, HFR and more.
Mark has provided this white paper as a aide memoire to some of what he talked about!

Travel
Pincents Manor is moments off Junction 12 of the M4
from the junction head towards Reading on the A4 and turn left at the first junction ( Was a Roundabout)
and then sharp left again before the shopping complex sign posted for Pincents Manor
Follow the road around and upwards past the new Ikea and though a restriction
and at the top of the hill - you have to turn left into the car park.
