Xbox Series X Auto-HDR: one of next-gen's coolest features [Jeff Grubb & EvilBoris video]

Thank you that is great to hear, I need it off because my capture card doesn't record with HDR enabled, I will later upgrade to a new one but in the meantime that will help me, thanks
Mirror's Edge is already running in HDR (at 4k) on the One X and it looks amazing.
Edit- I was mistaken. Only read forward if you want to see me embarrass myself.

Are you sure you're not talking about the remake on the Xbox 1?
I'm talking about the Orginal one. The 360 version.
As far as X1X, I don't believe it has the same auto HDR feature as the Series X.

this is one of the best things about xbox being outsold by playstation 2 to 1. they are doing good work.
Never doubt Fortinbras son.
(I'm just as confused as to why Digital Foundry used a thumbnail photo from ME:C.)
Funny thing is that it is indeed the original Mirrors Edge that has HDR and Catalyst doesn't. Looking forward to seeing Catalyst with this. Hope it gets a next gen patch of some kind
This should be forum marked, because each company has their expertise and know how. It's not as simple as starting to care for companies to deliver. Sure with money you can hire talent to do these tasks and improve, but it's not as simple as simply deciding on a morning "hey let's do ML research and deliver auto HDR". For the same reason the incredible Sony senors are interesting for various companies. If this were a sensor forum, then you would expect people to say "you know, it samsung, apple, Microsoft, ..., would care they could do the same.". Instead these companies partner with Sony and Sony partners with Microsoft and Amazon for PS Now or PSN respectively.

it works on Xbox One games also, providing they don't already offer it
Games that are particularly cinematic in aesthetic work well as they tend to throw out less data to begin with.
Quantum Break and Control both work really well.
From what I've seen the image is kept within its original colour gamut. So colour cannot be more saturated than it ever was.

That is actually better than them trying to "fake" the wider color gamut, right?
It's about them trying to respect certain components of what makes the game look the way it does.
Most people have their colour saturation up beyond that anyway, so they are getting a more saturated image anyway. That's probably why it's best not to interfere with it
What about future SDR-only Xbox Series X|S games?
Could it possibly work also for SDR multimedia (SDR Blu-Rays, Streaming apps etc.) other than games?
Have there been any videos that single out performance and auto HDR for Red Dead 2? That is the game I want to play since I never beat it and I was wondering how it played.
The tech seems tuned for games, which is the innovation here. Your TV's auto HDR mode (if such a thing exists on your set) might be sufficient for movies.
