I feel like I'm missing some context. Cool that there's someone cataloging this though.

"4320p"? Huh: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8K_resolution

> HFR stands for "High Framerate", which means up to 60 FPS, whereas non-HFR is limited to 30 FPS Personally I find most ((almost?) all?) >30fps generally unnecessary and just chews through bandwidth, monthly (mobile) data caps, and processing/batteries. Are there specific cases where "HFR" videos are really improving the viewing experience of particular (types of) content? (Note: in the table it's about support for HFR content, and does not necessarily mean that content is HFR.)
