In September of 2023, Amazon announced the Echo Show 8 Photos Edition. It looked just like the regular Echo Show 8 smart display/speaker but cost $10 more. Why? Because of its ability to show photos on the home screen for as long as you want—if you signed up for a $2 monthly subscription to Amazon’s PhotosPlus. Now, about a year after releasing the Echo Show 8 Photos Edition, Amazon is announcing that it’s discontinuing PhotosPlus. That means Echo Show 8 Photos Edition users will be forced to see ads instead of their beloved pics.

I’m still confused. All the HDR processing should be done on the client side if it is an HDR capable display playing a compatible format. The Shield can play most formats so that shouldn’t be the issue. How do you know HDR isn’t displaying properly?

Tone mapping is for converting HDR content to SDR for non-HDR displays. Why do you need it for an HDR TV?
