You can configure the HDR content-reproduction method to get a better viewing effect via this Sony VPL-XW6000 Projector HDR feature user guide. HDR (High Dynamic Range) makes dark and light areas of the image more expressive than before.

HDR feature settings Description
[Auto]
It distinguishes HDR content automatically to apply the optimal image quality. You can change the HDR setting selected automatically when HDR10-compliant content is distinguished.
- [HDR10/HLG]: When a signal is HDR10 compliant, the [HDR10] setting is applied. When it is HLG compliant, the [HLG] setting is applied.
- [HDR Reference/HLG]: When a signal is HDR10 compliant, the [HDR Reference] setting is applied. When it is HLG compliant, the [HLG] setting is applied.
[HDR10]
Set this when you reproduce HDR10-compliant content.
[HDR Reference]
This is suitable for reproducing HDR10-compliant content with a maximum brightness of 1,000 nit.
[HLG]
Set this when you reproduce HLG-compliant content.
[Off]
Set this when you reproduce content other than HDR content.
When [Auto] is selected and a signal is BT.2020 compatible, the [Color Space] is set to [BT.2020] automatically. If the setting is not correct for the input content, the light and dark areas of the image may appear too light or too dark. When you set [HDR10] or [HDR Reference], compare the image quality in both settings, then select the one that optimally displays the average brightness and gradation of the light area.
