I sent the following letter to Mr. Robert Harris @Robert Harris on the use of HDR in Vertigo l, Alfred Hitchcock, 1958
And if he thinks it's worrisome that films are being visually altered by her grading.
See below and let me know what you think please!
Dear Mr. Harris,
I've been a great...
Hello,
It's been years since I posted on here. Someone on this forum said it was ok to call a soundbar a home theater and I ran away screaming in terror. I hope things are more sensible now.
I started construction of a complete home theater project in 2018 but was designing and planning since...
I'm about to buy a 4K TV. The 4K projector update is maybe later this year, maybe pushed to 2021, due to #2020.
I don't watch movies anymore on TV, but I'm thinking about buying a 4K disc player to at least try out some of my 4K discs. The Panasonic UB420 is recommended and seems like a great...
This is based upon my words concerning the new Gladiator 4k Steelbook release.
Back in the dark ages of home video, May of 2018 to be exact, I reviewed the 4k releases of Braveheart and Gladiator, and found Braveheart to have been shorn its plastic shackles.
Now, a bit more than two years...
Back in the dark ages of home video, May of 2018 to be exact, I reviewed the 4k releases of Braveheart and Gladiator, and found Gladiator to have been shorn its plastic shackles.
Now, a bit more than two years later, they arise anew, and there are two differences in Gladiator - a lovely...
The new 4k release of David Lean's epic, Lawrence of Arabia, has seen four versions, and a myriad of home video itinerations, going back to praxinoscope days.
Now released in the new Columbia six film boxed set, it has seemingly reached home video nirvana.
Everything that one might wish for is...
Okay.
As I am on the hunt for a new 4K 65 inch TV I would appreciate the forums opinion on Dolby Vision.
I am thinking about getting a cheaper option TV without Dolby Vision but not sure if it is worth paying a few hundred pounds more to have a TV with the technology.
I hear many different...
Video, and especially the latest advancements, aren't my wheelhouse, but I've been taking the steps to moving to UHD, Atmos, etc over the last several months. I just upgraded the display in my living room system to a Vizio M558-G1 (extremely happy so far. What a bargain display) and as I've...
While going through iTunes and seeing which classics may be upgraded from SD to HD, I discovered that KING CREOLE 1962 has been upgraded from SD to 4K Dolby Vision.
A awesome discovery.
As many of you know, when you're on a project, certain things go by the wayside.
In my case, it was any recognition of Anna, starring dancer/model-turned-actress Sasha Luss.
As I was viewing, it became apparent that it had been made by a master craftsman, but I didn't know by whom.
It's the...
Another beautiful 4k release from the Lionsgate library, of a film that I somehow missed totally.
As Rambo films go, it's good, but seems to get caught up in the totally nihilistic concept of the plot, ie unrestrained violence, as directed by Mr. Stallone.
Superb actions sequences, tremendous...
Thoughts bouncing around.
They begin with a confused public reception, as this is without a doubt, the Best Picture of 1979.
Not that it wasn't nominated. It was.
Along with seven other nominations: Film Editing, Sound, Cinematography, Screenplay based from Another Medium, Art/ Set...
I have a Marantz SR6010 and recently updated to an LG 4K HDR B8 OLED 77" with Dolby Vision.
Anytime I am in Dolby Vision mode, say with my Apple TV 4K, the on screen display menus from the receiver will not display on the TV. If I switch the mode back to something different such as HDR10, the...
I have a 4 k set, sealed brand new of Jumanji welcome to the jungle for sale . Includes 4k Dolby vision,atmos disc,blue Ray disc,and digital code. Sealed never opened
$15.00 inc shipping cont USA , and PayPal fee.
Hi,
My Panasonic Oled tv is from last year and it does not support Dolby vision (only hdr10+).
If i use it with the Panasonic ub820 (support HDR10+ and DolbyVision), will my tv get to display the dolby vision HDR since the decoding will be made in the disc player (and that would mean a dolby...
I have an LG OLED TV compatible with Dolby Vision, my blu-ray is also Dolby Vision capable, and my AVR is also Dolby Vision capable.
Was wondering if it makes a difference whether my DVD player passes the dolby vision video signal through the AVR first or if it's better to send it straight to...
I had no idea what I was getting in to with Andrew Niccol's Lord of War, and came away impressed.
It's a film that' s more than the sum of its parts, leading to a commentary regarding the levels and intricacies of the sale of arms on more than a simplistic level.
Shot on film (S35), and...
It is neither through disrespect, nor negligence, that I combine the comments on two of the major 4k Blu-ray releases from the 2018 season.
Each in its own way, defines a specific style, both cinematographically as well as aurally, and both are reproduced on tiny CD-sized discs with immense...
When it comes to viscerally impressive, high octane entertainment, the latest in the MI series, Fallout, is hard to beat.
Over two hours of (almost) non-stop action, with a viable storyline, and terrific performances, Christopher McQuarrie's latest big budget project has all the bells and...
Damn! I wish they would have released a new Blu-ray alongside the 4K. This sucks in a major way. No purchase for me unfortunately, and there will probably never be a good 1080p Blu-ray. Sad what UHD is doing to great films..
Ol Parker, possibly best known for his Exotic Marigold Hotel films, moves the locale from India to Greece, for the second in the Mamma Mia! series.
If you enjoyed the first film, the second is more of the same, with a few new faces, and more songs from the great Swiss band Sha-Na-Na, only now...
In looking around, I've come across several titles that are available to rent/purchase in iTunes via the Apple TV 4K, that are in Dolby Vision. But when I look at the 4K UHD Blu-ray releases of these same titles, they were never released in anything but HDR10. So is Apple/iTunes converting them...
I would like to start a list and would like everyone to add to this list so we all know what 4K UHD TV's have HDR & Dolby Vision!
Please format like this: Brand - Size Of Display - LED or OLED - List if it has HDR, HDR+ and or Dolby Vision and if you would like MSRP
Hey everyone,
I have a Yamaha RX-V381. I thought I was future proofing myself with this purchase a year ago but I'm finding out that it does not have support for Dolby Vision (from what I've been able to confirm) and has actually been discontinued.
I have various components in my home theater...
