Just Turned My Old Family Videos into HDR with HitPaw VikPea — The Difference Is INSANE!

Hey everyone,

I recently found some old home videos from the 2000s — you know, those grainy, flat-looking SDR clips from family holidays and birthdays. Instead of just watching them as-is, I decided to try HitPaw VikPea’s SDR to HDR enhancement, and wow… it completely changed how they look.

Colors suddenly popped, shadows had detail, and skin tones looked natural again. Even those dark living-room clips turned out surprisingly clean. The best part? I didn’t have to tweak anything — the AI handled everything.

The process was super simple:

  1. Import the old video into HitPaw VikPea.

  2. Choose SDR to HDR mode.

  3. Preview and export the result — the before-and-after difference is crazy.

Now those old family clips actually look like mini Netflix documentaries. It’s wild seeing childhood memories come to life in HDR.

Would love to hear how your results turned out!
