You will see a new “HDMI Capabilities” view, divided into three sections:

 

•

 

Supported 4K Ultra HD Modes 

•

 

Supported HDMI Features 

•

 

HDMI Video Status 

These sections are described below. 

Supported 4K Ultra HD Modes 

 

This section summarizes the 4K Ultra HD capabilities of the device(s) connected 
to the primary HDMI port, as detected by Strato C.  If Strato C is connected 
directly to the display, then this shows the capabilities that the display is 
reporting.  If Strato C is connected to the display via an audio processor, an 
HDMI switch or matrix, or other intermediate equipment, then this section 
shows the capabilities of the combined display chain, including any limitations 
imposed by the intermediate devices. 

This section is divided into NTSC, PAL and Film sections.  The icons provide a 

quick summary of the display’s capabilities for each of thes

e formats.  The 

paragraphs in the right column give more detail.
