HDR in Live Sports: Max Sets the Stage

Warner Bros. Discovery's streaming platform, Max, is breaking new ground by integrating Dolby Vision HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology into its Live Sports Add-On Tier. This marks Max as the first streaming service to offer live sports broadcasts with Dolby Vision HDR enhancements. The result: significantly improved image quality and heightened realism for sports fans.

About Max Streaming

Max is a major player in the streaming market, noted for its diverse content library including HBO shows, classic film offerings, and family-friendly selections. Subscribers value its focus on rewatchable favorites and extensive back catalog.

Dolby Vision HDR's Visual Enhancements

Dolby Vision HDR technology dramatically improves the visual experience of supported content. Key benefits include:

• Expanded Color Range: Delivering a broader spectrum of visually striking colors.
• Enhanced Contrast: Deeper blacks and brighter whites for heightened depth and detail.
• Optimized Brightness: Scene-by-scene adjustments for the ideal image at any moment.

These enhancements dramatically heighten the realism and immersion for those watching live sports.

Elevating Sound with Dolby Atmos

Max isn't solely focused on the visual experience. The platform understands that superior audio is an equally important component for sports immersion. That's why Max's sports add-on already supports Dolby Atmos – the multi-dimensional surround sound technology. Subscribers can take advantage of Dolby Vision HDR visuals and Dolby Atmos audio for a truly comprehensive sports viewing upgrade.

The Bleacher Report Sports Add-On

Max's Bleacher Report Sports Add-On is where subscribers will find Dolby Vision HDR enhanced sporting events.

• Cost: $9.99 on top of the base Max subscription fee.
