Do VM have any plans to introduce HDR?
BT TV starts using HDR from 9/4/19 and Sky is said to start sometime this summer.
Does anyone know if VM have any plans to use it too?

I would be interested to know your source of information on HDR coming to BT TV in a few weeks.

BTtv have not said they are doing HDR - the BT Sports promo implies it is via apps.
BTtv do not have a HDR compatible HDR box.
And as Spiderplant says - the V6 box has had it nearly a year now.

That's good, they ought to promote this as a selling point (unless they have & i've missed it).

No broadcast channel currently has HDR as far as I know.
It's Netflix that has HDR currently and then iPlayer when they show HLG content (one of the reasons why the 4K Football trial was on the V6 last year).

Ah ok , the UK for Sky Sports is supposedly this year for live Sporting HDR broadcasts more than likely to be F1 and EPL games.
