Late last week, Microsoft released a small software update for its Xbox One console. At the time, Microsoft’s head of Xbox Live programming Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb said the update would have no new features, stating that it had “a few behind the scenes changes to prepare for the future.” As it turns out, that wasn’t entirely the case as the change log for that update reveals it added support for 10-bit HD High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) to the Xbox One.
