HDMI 2.2's full specs have been finalized, with better support for modern displays
The HDMI forum, which develops and manages HDMI specification, has officially launched the final and full specifications for HDMI version 2.2. First revealed at CES 2025, version 2.2 was designed to make it significantly easier to send videos with higher refresh rates and resolutions to modern TVs, such as those with 4K and 8K displays. Version 2.2 cables are required to be branded with the Ultra96 feature name, which indicates that they support up to 96Gbps in bandwidth and all HDMI 2.2 applications. The label ensures buyers that they're purchasing a certified product with the features they need, as the current ultra high-speed HDMI cables only support up to 48Gbps in maximum bandwidth. HDMI forum will require testing for each model length to guarantee compliancy, and the label is required to be displayed on the cable itself. HDMI 2.2 cables are capable of sending content with up to 12K resolution at 120 fps and 16K resolution at 60 fps to supporting devices. They also support uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K resolution at 60 fps/4:4:4 and 4K resolution at 240 fps/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color. In addition, they come with a new feature called Latency Indication Protocol (LIP) that improves audio and video synchronization. It will be especially useful for more complex system configurations, such as those that include audio-video receivers or soundbars. Now that the Forum has officially released HDMI Version 2.2's full specifications, we'll just have to wait for certified cables and compatible devices to be available.

Schools to reopen today; pre-primary to be introduced in 210 schools in State
Ending a 49-day vacation, schools in Telangana are all set to reopen for Classes 1 to 10 for the academic year 2025-26 on Thursday. For the first time, the State government has also decided to deliver 'early childhood care and education' and run pre-primary sections. The initiative is under Samagra Shiksha, the integrated scheme for school education, and the aim is to ensure the preschoolers are ready for Class 1 in the next academic year. Pre-primary will be launched in the districts of Hanumakonda, Jagtial, Jayashankar Bhupalapally, Kamareddy, Karimnagar, Kumuram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Mulugu, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Peddapalli, Siddipet and Warangal. The first day at school, officials in the Education department and District Collectors across the State said, will be a celebratory one focused on welcoming the students back. Principals and teachers have already been instructed to decorate the schools, and install entrance arches with flowers and banners. The major task on the first day, however, is the distribution of school uniforms and textbooks and notebooks. School heads are also to monitor enrollment of students, which was keenly campaigned for during the week. The new academic year is also a fresh start for 1.12 lakh teachers across the State who have undergone five-day capacity building workshops, and senior school officials who have attended residential programmes. The focus has been on student learning assessment: Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN) modules for Classes 1-5 and Learning Improvement Programme (LIP) – for Classes 6 to 9. The Education department will also partner with AXL EkStep Foundation for 5,651 schools to improve FLN. In a first, the School Education Department, learning from past year's experiences, has also taken up training sessions for cooks and sanitation workers to ensure food safety and overall school hygiene. As per the 2025-26 school academic calendar, schools for Classes 1 to 10 will have 230 working days. The first summative assessment will be conducted from October 24 to 31, the second summative assessment for Classes till 9th is scheduled April 10 to 18.
