Netflix Press Release:
Netflix Super HD
and 3D
Now available
through Open Connect partners, Netflix Super HD is the highest quality video
format offered by Netflix, providing an even better picture on 1080p HDTVs.
In the U.S.,
Netflix is also for the first time offering a small number of titles streaming
in 3D through Open Connect partners. Available for 3D viewing are, among other
titles, the action fantasy drama "Immortals," Red Bull Media House's
snowboarding documentary "The Art of Flight," and a number of titles
from the Discovery/Sony/Imax joint venture 3net Studios - including the native,
original 3D series "African Wild," "Scary Tales," and
"Live Fire." Depending on member demand, Netflix will consider adding
3D titles and expanding availability to international markets.
"These new
Super HD and 3D formats are more challenging to deliver than our other video
streams, which is why we will deliver them through Open Connect," said Ken
Florance, vice president of content delivery at Netflix. "Any ISP that
wants to be able to deliver our new formats can do so easily and for
free."
Netflix members
can verify if their ISP is part of Open Connect and provides access to Netflix
Super HD and, in the U.S. only, 3D on this Web site: www.netflix.com/superhd
ISPs that are
not yet on Open Connect can contact Netflix at openconnect.netflix.com to start
their Open Connect relationship. As part of Open Connect, Netflix is also
sharing its hardware design and the open source software components. These
designs are suitable for any other provider of large media files and are very
cost efficient.
