Dolby Vision enables select TVs to take HDR up a notch with scene-by-scene precision and accuracy versus standard HDR which uses one setting for the entire movie/show you are watching. If you have a TV that supports the latest version of Dolby Vision and a Premium Netflix subscription jump in and experience Dolby Vision for yourself in the coming weeks!

The def star Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 That's great news! I can finally watch Black Panther in Dolby Vision. I think it's the only movie so far that I have that's in Dolby Vision Can't wait for this to hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I think DV is more natural looking than HDR10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number305 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I use my TV's native apps for streaming - so I have had this for a while. If MS would enable this for games and 4k bluray then I would be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom631 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I think you are missing some of the actual statement. While this is great news (and I had posted about Xbox getting DV support before the great D1P collapse of 2018).... I believe only streaming services, read: netflix will now support DV. There is no word whether or not blu-ray support for DV will happen. We can only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodimus Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 This is great news. Dolby Vision has been great. Now this is making it harder not to get this as a 4k blu0ray player. I'm sure I will find a reason not to get one for 4k blu-rays. I do have a TV that supports Dolby Vision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $30+ price for a UHD movie is what makes me not care. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinIon Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 So they enabled DV only for streaming services? That seems odd. I'm starting to buy some movies in 4K blu ray, but I don't yet have a player. I was thinking about upgrading my OG Xbox One mostly for that purpose, but it doesn't seem worth it if it doesn't support both formats.

I’m guessing it’s a “test” atm and hopefully UHD-BD DV support follows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will look very slightly better with DV - so I'm still looking forward to it. But it is a small difference that should not factor into your buying decision. Also everything I have seen says it is coming for games and UHD. Just not on this release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy much physical media, but I do have a few UHD movies. Only my very favorite movies, and then only the ones that look great on UHD. Also I have never spent more than $15 per movie. Don't buy them on release day. Wait for sales. This Monday on Amazon will be a great day to buy a few if you are at all interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen them as cheap as $17 but those don't come with all the other old formats but include a digital copy with the disc. Also this all gets cheaper over time. and @number305 pointed out you can rent them like from Redbox. 4k is nice but HDR is what really interests me more.

The couple that I've gotten have been $15-19 and have come with a digital copy + HD-BD along with the UHD-BD (The Fifth Element and Die Hard - the former had a lightning sale on Amazon on Wednesday). If you look on eBay you can find tons of people dumping either the UHD discs or the digital codes for $10-15, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolby Vision is 12-bit instead of 10-bit like HDR 10. All those extra colors help make those gradients nice and smooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
