HDR
The Aero supports HDR10 and HDR10+. It does not support Dolby Vision.
HDR10+ provides dynamic metadata capabilities comparable to Dolby Vision, adjusting brightness and contrast on a scene-by-scene basis for the best possible picture.
Resolution
The Aero detects your TV’s maximum supported resolution and outputs at that resolution. It maintains this throughout playback – it doesn’t change resolution based on the content you’re watching.
Refresh Rate
The default refresh rate is 60Hz, which gives the best overall experience across Freely, Netflix, YouTube, and other apps.
If you mostly watch Freely live TV and notice occasional frame rate issues (such as slight judder on panning shots), you can switch to 50Hz in settings. This matches the native frame rate of UK broadcast content.
Auto Frame Rate
If your TV supports HDMI 2.1, the Aero already switches refresh rates dynamically to match the content – so you don’t need to choose between 50Hz and 60Hz.
An Auto Frame Rate update is coming in mid-March 2026 that will bring this same frame rate matching to all TVs, not just those with HDMI 2.1. All apps will support it, including Prime Video.
