Nvidia driver update adds RTX Video HDR

Last year, Nvidia updated its drivers to allow for those with an RTX card to intelligently upscale online videos to 4K, remastering them in real-time. The graphics card maker has now taken this one step further, introducing what they are calling RTX Video HDR.

Announced as part of the latest Driver update, Nvidia officially revealed RTX Video HDR – “a new video technology that uses AI and RTX Tensor Cores to dynamically remap Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) video content to High Dynamic Range (HDR10) quality video, improving visibility, details, and vibrance of streamed video.”

This latest RTX Video HDR can be used in tandem with Nvidia’s previously-released RTX Video Super Resolution to drastically improve the video quality of all online media – including livestreams.

RTX Video Super Resolution was already a surprising and welcome addition when it was announced and released last year, but this latest upgrade looks set to take things even further. Hopefully Nvidia continues to innovate in the video space just as much as they do with gaming.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
