Correct. (Many standalone blu ray players don’t support DV either to be fair). However the Xbox blu ray drive supoorts uncompressed Dolby Atmos which is quite nice.

I remember getting a UHD Blu-ray player for Dolby Vision, after all this time I only have a few films that actually have it.
Even the film's Disney have on Disney+ with DV don't have Dolby Vision on the UHD Blu-ray version.
It's nice to have, but it's not as widely used as they make out, mainly streaming services use it.

i thought it was on PC, just very limited games supported it. Like didn't Andromeda support it? I know Halo Infinite will on PC, too.

One of these days Ill look into a new sound system or home theatre. My current one is like 10 years old and is 5.1 channel sound.
I'm not an audiophile, so maybe I couldnt even tell the difference with the new Dolby stuff like Atmos, but I know my system is limited to Dolby DTS and Prologic according to settings.

It does not have UHD drive? Or just some movies limitation?
It has UHD drive, but doesn't support Dolby Vision playback of UHD disks that support it.

It has a UHD drive, it just doesn't support DV. Your stuck with HDR10 for UHD discs

This is what I was wondering.
How is the input lag in Dolby Vision for gaming with Sony TV's?
Ah, yes.. there was something ...
But I also use amazon/disney/netflix of my tv. I don't see the need to use 60-80W additional power for those streaming services
The picture looks great, but the lag is really awful. Made this experience with the Mafia Remake. Once the xbox had this update, the visual were even better but it wasn't playable and mafia is already not a really fast shooter.

Correct. The general consensus is that UHD discs will be the last generation of physical media (ever) before the studios switch to all streaming. Which sucks because the bandwidth isn’t there yet to support streaming the way I like it (no artifacting and hearing the full audio track the way the director intended it).

I stand corrected, had no idea DV on PC was even a thing yet considering how inconsistent general HDR support is in Windows.

Quickly, write an email for MS, they must know this...Do you not understand how the xsx hz setting works? It's system wide, so even if a game is 30fps, the TV will still receive a 120hz signal.
Being at the native hz for the tv produces the absolute lowest input lag possible, even allowing the use of non-game modes without much problems.
At other hz settings, like 60, the input lag rises sharply outside of game modes.
Many tvs don't have a game mode for dolby vision, so no it's not a "great feature to enjoy 60fps gaming" when your experience is literally worsened by much higher input lag.
90ms... no thanks.

Just calibrate the tv settings to your liking. Normally you have more that one type of settings for dv to begin with.

Yep even the brightest mode is still a bit dull.
I know I'm not alone in this one, it's a sony thing, many have complained.

Just tried it on my Sony XE9305, played some Ori WotW. Eyeball melting brightness. HDTVtest said it was unplayable on Sony TVs because of latency, but I don’t know, I guess I’m immune. I have a Marantz AVR between the console and TV as well which I assume add latency too, could still do some spirit trials no prob.
Not sure I like the insane brightness though.

Anyone know why its not working for me? I have an lg c8 but for some reason it wont activate even though its checked in the menu

has been asked to post in 'Grounded' mode.
I'm sure they do know, it's on the TV makers now to push down the latency response when Dolby Vision is used for a games console. They'll get there eventually, HDR used to add a lot of latency before pretty much most current models reduced that.
Went through the same. I had to enable Dolby Vision for gaming on one of the check boxes. It's the last check box.

I wish I was immune to ~100ms input lag

I turned off all the processing available on my XH90 (UK version of X900H) and it still felt laggy. Would the VRR/ALLM update that's due to come at the end of the year eliminate the lag.

Yeh, not disputing anything you said but was mostly addressing what your wrote about grading in your first paragraph, it was just expanding on what you said and clarifying the situation regarding how grading is done for movies.
there doesn't need to be anything past UHD, 8k is too fine to notice much difference unless you have a huge screen, which will never be mass-market priced.. There's a market for UHD, like there is for vinyl. - for specialty labels - Arrow, Vinegar Syndrome etc. - there are enthusiasts who will pay.
Let's be honest, it's not the first time we've heard this, before you know it there's going to be 110''+ at consumer level and 4k will be struggling and movie studios will start pushing 8k upscales of their 2k Digital Masters.

Samsung don’t want to pay Dolby licensing fees for DV. Samsung is pushing the competing HDR10+

Ah i got it. Works for some games, but it doesnt for forza horizon 4 for some reason

its not just dolby vision but is made specifically for gaming so has the same input lag as normal game mode.
Hopefully it will become popular as dolby atmos is really underutilised, especially as its absolutely amazing when used.
Microsoft games usually have dolby atmos so I believe they will also support dolby vision as standard now.

They already do.
On topic. Tried it Ori and the will of the wisps. DV had a bit more richness in the colors but it was a bit too much compared to HGIG.
Granted I hadn't calibrated the in game HDR settings to DV.

I know and it's a shame, the difference is staggering.
And I don't think it's just down to bitrates either.
I watched Loki for several episodes which was advertised as 4k DV on Disney+
and it was definitely DV, showed and everything.
But the picture wasn't right, it looked like a soft 1080p
So out of curiosity I downloaded a 4k HDR version and...yep! That's was definitely 4k
But that was clearly from the same source
Same with films I seen on streaming services to see if they're worth the upgrade to 4k and upon getting the 4k version the quality jumps again.
It's mind-blowing how much lower the quality "can" be between the Streaming and physical is.
I recently found out that they don't even use the same masters for streaming and UHD discs.
All the Star Wars films and Marvel films are completely different on Disney+ to the UHD versions.

Lol why is ms wasting money on this, difference bewteen dv and hrd10+ is marginal at best.

Works on Borderlands 3 - looks great, but I'd be lying if I said I could tell the difference, it looked great before!
