Key features:
Frame-by-Frame Dynamic HDR Dynamic Tone Mapping
madVR Labs pioneered dynamic frame by frame HDR Dynamic Tone Mapping. Our patent-pending DTM 2.0 analyses every frame in real-time to optimize every single pixel. That’s a half billion pixels per second at 4K60. Our proprietary Highlight Recovery, Contrast Recovery and Shadow Detail Recovery provide an image so stunning you will be addicted at first sight. Finally, you can enjoy HDR movies and shows at home like never before possible, just as the director intended.
Auto Aspect Ratio Management and Geometry Control
Envy detects every single aspect ratio and instantly adjusts the image to exactly fit your screen, regardless of its Aspect Ratio and the Aspect Ratio of the movie, even as it changes back and forth. Our unrivalled auto AR control finally rids you of those pesky black bars once and for all. The Envy Pro also features advanced geometry correction, great for removing lens barrel distortion, fitting curved screens, advanced architectural installations, and more. MadVr Envy Pro resolves a lot of issues that arise from using a 16:9 aspect ratio projectors mated with Cinemascope screen and provides a seamless cinematic experience with no black bars, screen blanking during aspect ratio changeover, lens position changeover etc.
Motion AI Interpolation
MotionAI by madVR Labs—the industry’s first and only AI-driven motion interpolation technology in a
standalone video processor. MotionAI delivers unprecedented improvements in multiple aspects—image clarity,
stability, detail, and smooth motion handling—for a transformative visual experience unlike any other.
For those unfamiliar with the term, motion interpolation is the process of creating new frames between existing ones in
a video. This enhances fluidity, smoothness, and clarity, without introducing “judder”, also known as jerky or stuttering
motion.
8K Upscaling & Sharpening
Envy Extreme Mk2 uses proprietary machine learning algorithms to provide unrivalled upscaling upto 8K/60fps and anamorphic stretch. It also provides the highest quality chroma upscaling (4:2:0->4:4:4) and can automatically reverse certain damaging chroma upscaling used by source players to then perfectly apply its superior chroma upscaling.
Highly Accurate Calibrations
Envy enables incredibly accurate calibrations by supporting massive 256-point 3D LUTs, and 4,096 point 1D LUTs, without any loss of measurement data and precision, unlike with other processors. This translates to 16.7 million points of accuracy, compared to less than 5,000 points with others. Envy integrates with calibration products including ColourSpace, Calman, and more.
Image Enhancements
Envy provides the highest quality algorithms to remove compression artifacts and mosquito noise, as well as de-banding to remove 8-bit banding artifacts. Many other favourite tweaks for image enhancements are also available to remove or add grain, sharpen edges, remove ringing, and more.
Subtitle Handling & Profiles
Tired of cutoff subtitles with your scoped screen? Our subtitle handing dynamically resizes your image to fit subtitles only when needed, maximizing your picture size. And our new profile system provides the most powerful yet easy to use settings management you’ve ever seen in any product before it.
4K and HDMI 2.1 Support
The Envy Extreme Mk2 supports 4K HDMI 2.1 output, with full 48 Gbps HDCP 2.3 support. This makes Envy the first and only stand-alone video processor to offer these advanced capabilities. Our modern-day hardware platform ensures you’ll enjoy the Envy for many years to come.
Non-Linear Stretch (NLS+)
Want to remove those pesky black bars on your 2.35 screen when watching 16:9 content? Our NLS+ is the first non-linear stretch algorithm to combine horizontal expansion with vertical compression. This innovation (yet another madVR Labs industry first) “shares the load” for the stretch both horizontally and vertically, resulting in a more natural looking image than possible otherwise.
Simple to Install and Use
Set up is so simple that it takes just five minutes. No experience is required. Just plug the HDMI output from your AVR into the Envy Extreme Mk2, and send the Envy Extreme’s HDMI output to your display. Need support? With your permission, your dealer can remotely connect to your Envy, see its video output in real-time, and operate it just like they were in the room with you.
Backlit Remote Controller
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this second-generation remote is designed to enhance your
interaction with the madVR Envy Extreme, making it effortlessly intuitive and easy to use.
Building upon the foundation of the well-regarded MK1 remote, the RC2 is a significant upgrade both in terms of design
and functionality. It delivers on highly requested features, including motion activated backlit buttons, dedicated Back
and Info buttons, and two additional coloured flex key buttons for expanded user customization. The RF antenna has also
been improved for increased reception and durability.
