JVC Further Elevates Projector Viewing Experience with NEW Functions

Free Firmware Highlights

The Frame Adapt HDR feature of our unique D-ILA projector instantly analyzes the peak brightness of content that varies from scene to scene or frame by frame and automatically adjusts to the optimal dynamic range to create more natural and realistic images of HDR10 content. The ability to support a wide range of HDR10 content with or without mastering information has been highly praised by many users. The new firmware replaces the Frame Adapt HDR function with a new Frame Adapt HDR Vivid mode. JVC’s new firmware provides incredible life-like 3D images creating Images that are intensified with brighter and more vibrant colors and deeper dark tones.

JVC is also excited to introduce its newest function; Highlight Color Control. This feature makes high-intensity scenes exhilarating as the brightness and color saturation provide both vibrant and images deeply rich in color.

Another great improvement is the ability to experience sharp, realistic 8K resolution with little to no video noise. This is addressed with JVC’s new MPC (Multiple Pixel Control) super-resolution circuit. The newly added smoother function effectively suppresses video noise caused by data compression. It achieves sharper detail and a more realistic 8K experience.
Is gaming more your passion? JVC answers that with its latest feature the Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). Addressing video display lag now gamers can experience even faster response times when playing their most challenging games.

New Firmware Benefits
Frame Adapt HDR Vivid


The new picture mode, Frame Adapt HDR Vivid, adds to JVC’s award-winning Frame Adapt feature. Based on the Perceptual Quantizer curve, proprietary video processing technology for HDR content, JVC has remarkably improved contrast and color expression of the entire image by brightening bright areas and increasing deeper dark details. This allows the subject to naturally stand out from the background for a three-dimensional image.

Conventional New Frame Adapt HDR Vivid

Furthermore, with the new Highlight Color Control function, added saturation is maintained and enhanced for incredible details. Even in high contrast images such as night scenes and sci-fi movie scenes, HDR images provide superior detail and sharpness that produces an image with an amazing depth of field.

Highlight Color Control


JVC understands that not all home theater and video environments are alike. With its Highlight Color Control feature coupled with its Frame Adapt HDR Technology mode, the balance between brightness and saturation in high-intensity scenes is achieved. Now color and vivid scenes do not need to be sacrificed for brighter and vivid images. The images
can be catered to your specific viewing needs through Low, Mid and High levels giving you the flexibility to cater to your own preferences.

Low Mid High

Enhanced MPC (Multiple Pixel Control)


In standard mode, improvements have been made to create images that are more natural and realistic. A new function, Smoother, has been added to our proprietary MPC super-resolution circuit. This effectively reduces artifact noise caused by video data compression and enables smoother, and more realistic 8K video imaging while maintaining a natural high-definition feel. It reduces visual incongruity and further enhances the quality of the video experience even in videos that require fine detail and sharpness.

ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode)..New!

ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) is a new feature that is ideal for gaming that requires low latency. When connected to an ALLM-compliant device, the projector automatically switches to low latency mode based on the video signal. When ALLM is activated, Frame Adapt HDR,

Laser Dynamic Control, and Clear Motion

Drive are automatically disabled to improve speed and responsiveness. ALLM advances large screen gaming to a fully immersive experience.

JVC’s ALLM mode takes low latency into account and brings gaming to the next level.

Other Features Include

New OSD Guide function


A newly designed menu guide addresses each mode and feature to provide easy and clear onscreen descriptions. Now even 1st timers can easily maneuver through the advanced settings and adjust quickly. No need to worry about having to fumble through an owner’s manual to determine the details of each setting. Now with a push of a button image quality, HDR settings and fine color modifications are made easy. JVC prides itself in fine tuning the smallest details to make your experience easier. This attention to detail is seen in the most recent improvements made to the visibility and usability of the On- Screen-Display (OSD) menu. One of these upgrades includes making the menu easier to read even during low-light or HDR content playback. In addition, a new menu function has been added that corrects the brightness of the OSD display. This reduces the brightness change of the OSD display even during Dynamic Control of the laser light source, allowing for appropriate brightness adjustments. These features and their brightness levels can be easily switched ON/OFF to adapt to any environment.


Improved Calibration Performance


JVC’s new calibration software version further enhances the calibration accuracy of the projector.

Now one can calibrate choosing color temperature and color gamut as a targeted value. High- precision image adjustments can be made easily. Couple this with the JVC’s latest generation of its calibration sensors which provide even more precise accuracy and operability.

ADVANCED Personalized Presets


The ADVANCED key located on the remote can now store custom settings according to the user's preferences. This makes it possible to recall video modes and image quality adjustment items with one touch. This simplifies access to presets and enables flexible video adjustment according to viewing environments and content.
