Your NVIDIA Shield now plays Netflix videos in HDR

NVIDIA just underscored one of the advantages of having a high-powered streaming media hub: you can roll out new video features before anyone else. It’s delivering an update to its Shield set-top box that introduces high dynamic range Netflix video on supporting TVs — a first for a stand-alone device, NVIDIA claims. You can also watch YouTube videos at both 4K and 60 frames per second, while Vudu 4K support is equally new. And if you’re an audio junkie, you’ll be glad to know that Dolby Atmos’ extra-immersive audio gets a direct pass-through when you’re using apps like Vudu, MX Player and NVIDIA’s own media gallery.

There’s broader software support, to boot. You’re getting that promised Plex media server feature, so your Shield can share media across the whole home. You can tune into WatchESPN for live sports, or listen to tunes through Spotify. Voice search now extends to Netflix, Spotify and Vudu. And to top it all off, you can both drag-and-drop files from your computers as well as mount network-attached storage. All told, this is a huge upgrade even if you don’t have a cutting-edge home theater setup.
