The disc got the HDR only treatment and still looks amazing, but the digital code gave you the 4K with the DV encoding. I think it’s also their way of enticing people to move from the physical media to their cheaper streaming/digital offerings instead. I stream but I’m still mainly a physical media buyer myself . . . minus ultimate gamepass (that the good digital shit there) It's more the "I'll wait for physical" crowd. Why not both?

silentbob Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I know I own several Dolby Vision discs. No Way Home has Dolby Vision on the 4K disc, and my Oppo 203 plays DV. Sadly no available DV home projectors yet on the market, but my Sony tv is Dolby Vision capable. I personally I haven’t seen too much of a difference between HDR, HDR+ and Dolby Vision. Sometimes the colour has an ever so slight richer look in colour grading but you really got to be looking for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish Windows had good global support already. HDR10 can looks fantastic too though imo, but I can never get the tone to look as “right” as with DV. Edit: There might be some room for preference though, DV is going to basically calibrate for you, if you have a preference for calibration that strays from the intended look then you might not like DV as much.

The only other displays I've seen DV on are my iPhone (lolololol) and a Sony X850f. On the Sony both HDR and DV made me kinda sad compared to my OLED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 HDR generally is a mess at this point. At least DV has Dolby QCing the masters. But there is really no reason HDR10+ couldn’t look exactly the same as DV. What we really need is the TV manufacturers to build really good tone mapping into their SOCs so no matter whether the video has good metadata or not, the TV will produce a great result. I have seen a few high end image processors that produced better results than any of the pre-packaged metadata formats. Only a matter of time before the tech gets down in price.

I'm hoping QD-OLED and the increased brightness without worrying about heat causing burn-in (and, eventually, micro-LED TVs) will finally allow for HDR/DV to have the insane brightness we want/need. I know the new ASUS mini-LED (not even micro-LED) monitors with DV and HDR1500 support are absolutely insane (And priced equally insane).

stepee Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I really am looking forward to a content standard/tv situation where everything is just always toned perfect on every scene without any adjusting. I’ve gotten more anal about color tone (mostly talking about gaming now) so also really looking forward to getting an oled finally as having pure blacks will help that a lot too.

Chris- Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I didn’t watch the video, but if that article (and the shot of the lists side by side) are any indication of the quality of his argument, I think he’s stretching it a bit…Batman stories can get a little complex, but it’s not like the overall narrative arcs of most superhero stories are particularly diverse- they all tend to follow pretty beats. Citing things like ‘Batman being in a stage in his career’ is ridiculous because Batman is by nature always going to be at a stage in his career.

TwinIon Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 The video is now private, but the screen grab they pulled is not exactly convincing. I don't even think he's being very honest about what's in The Batman. Sure Riddler grew up in an orphanage, and it's a plot point, but "surrogate family" doesn't really play into it. If anything, his online community is far more important. I also think it's a pretty big difference between global Armageddon and plague vs Gotham is in trouble (which is pretty standard for the Batman movies). While you can certainly argue that Gotham flooding is biblical, it's certainly not presented that way in the film. He also says that punks vandalizing an abandoned bank doesn't many any sense in Reeve's film, but I don't agree. It's a tiny sequence of little consequence, but it does show that Gotham isn't in a great economic place, which is rather important to the whole plot surrounding the renewal fund. The other thing he brings up is Batman injecting himself with something when fighting Riddler's followers, which might be the only compelling thing listed. I just wrote it off as adrenaline, but it wouldn't surprise me if some version of the script explained it one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Reeves has been very open about all the places he borrowed from, so why hide the ball on this dude’s contribution if it were accurate?
