The UHD HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) HDR versions of the first six episodes will be transmitted via the network via HbbTV via the ZDF media library from November 9,2017 and can be watched on Hbbb-TV/Smart TVs with HDR/HLG capability and enhanced colour dynamics.
On devices without HDR, the consequences are also displayed without problems in the normal (SDR) color space thanks to HLG.
