Hey FOMO are you gonna update to firmware 1113? I heard they changed the tone mapping clipping points on 1113. On 1100 ps5 clipped at 17 clicks and now it clips at 20 on 1113. Please test before and after fw update with game HDR on/tone mapping static (hgig) and also test FMM mode with both static and active and see if there are any newfound anomalies.

I may have missed it but, can you elaborate about the differences between the S90C from Best Buy and the S90CD from Costco???? I’m particularly interested on the 77” model. Besides the warranty, I believe there are other differences between those. Some say it is related to the screen, some say it is related to the audio. I’m not sure but, I read that the one from Costco comes with a more powerful audio system. Can you clear this up for is looking to get one? Thanks a lot!

I didn’t have a issue with accuracy for s95b as long as it was in filmmaker mode , it was the terrible colour production in the game mode and no way to properly fix the accuracy in game mode , have they fixed that or are you forced to look at way over saturated colours and brightness just because you like gaming ?
@90lancaster Жыл бұрын
I often find that I prefer HDR over Dolby Vision, DV is often washed out or to dim and look a bit boring. I noticed that on games too. I know what it's "supposed" to be like that but a good example of this is Microsoft Flight Simulator. In Dolby Vision it make the cloud detail stronger and messes up the look of the aircraft a lot & it just looks a bit weird to me. Where as the more even brightness looks better to me as it gives more of an impression that the plane and the sky are the same illuminator. Or to put it another way Dolby Vision makes things look like poorly composited Visual effects. So I prefer HDR10 etc. and the flowers shown in this video are a good example it completely dims the red to try to make the yellow stronger and instead of your eye flowing to the yellow which is the intent, it makes you wonder what happened to the picture all of a sudden or if your TV is broken. So yeah I'm not really a fan of Dolby Vison's current implementation. I'm not saying everything should look like Samsung Vivid mode either I just find my personal taste is closer to HDR10

I prefer the Brighter field of tulips I don't think the intention is lost in fact I think the "slight" loose of detail creates almost a depth of field effect on it and draws my eye more so yeah I like the left image way way more the right one is as yuck looking as the ferris wheel is on the Sony. As for the mountain the HDR destroys the detail here you can see it in the graph it's not even trying to render it correctly it's just blasting light at it and knackers it so in this case despite it being very dim the detail preservation is noticeably superior on the Sony. I wonder what a wildlife snow scene would look like on each TV ?

Sony is still thousand $ more expensive than Samsung, and you're just throwing away money for a *very marginal* improvement. By the time Sony A95L comes out (probably in June), Samsung will cut down the prices. And by the end of this year/beginning next year, Samsung might give 50% off. Buying Sony is mostly just to brag about a TV at this point, for those who have just way too much money than sense.

I'm just an average viewer, but to me, Dolby Vision is too dim in most scenes. I watched "The Ranch" on Netflix in Dolby Vision, and i felt my eyes straining to see everything throughout the entire show. I always found everything to be too dark, and was never impressed with any specular highlights. I don't care if it's more "accurate", i prefer the other HDR formats, which are more vibrant in color, and punchier in brightness.

@@tears2040 Dolby Vision will always prioritize detail over brightness. That's literally what it was designed to do. A lot of people think Dolby Vision is just about brightness and that's false. And it is accurate in this regard. If you were able to watch that scene on a 10,000nit Dolby Vision display, it would be bright *and* detailed. It's just that when your TV can't get as bright as the source, it prioritizes the detail, because that's what Dolby Vision was designed to do.

"More detail in the sun" is a ridiculous phrase. It's the sun, you're not supposed to see it. Around the sun is a better choice of words. Also, tone mapping is "about preserving detail in scenes that call for brightness that's too much for the TV to handle". This Sony DV tone mapping algorithm needs brighter TVS. The mountain scene is the only one where DV looks better (Imo). It doesn't work well to dim things to maintain the ratio of brightness when the absolute brightness range is so small.

I completely agree - but it's also context as the background is already so dark, lowering it further doesn't increase the effect so this approach works better in some scenes (tulips) than others (ferris wheel)

I am bias, don't understand why the heck you didn't use the same size TV...you did everything the same that you could except Dolby vision as Samsung doesn't support that, so why not make everything the same including the size of the TVs. Why WHy WHY!!!!! Breaking down a static image to show the difference is all well & fine, except of course that people aren't usually able to do this level of side by side comparisons Thank you very much for doing the comparisons for us, & overall I would agree with your assessment that Samsung is a bit better overall, though that snow mountain scene in Dolby vision was much much better.
@loki76 Жыл бұрын
I often find that HDR10 the bog standard is the best overall. Because it's simply just pushes out the full range. It's still High DYNAMIC range. Just not as much changes as Dolby vision. So even if not always accurate, basically you get more brightness out of it. And Samsung's Active Tone mapping is great. I like how it take it and make more out of it. Dolby vision can get really dim. Even if that is creators intent. Well perhaps I don't find that look appealing. I am the one watching and it's my TV, I am going to do what is pleasing to me. I don't give AF what the director want. Even more so since many filmmakers have gone bonkers with bad setting. Looking at you Ozark and many other shows. Completely desaturated and not even realistic lighting at all. So how it the 'creators intent" the right way when they actually made it wrong. I want more HDR pop, nice colors (not over saturated or neon) just full and bright. I want more shadow detail, which happens under Active tone mapping because it allows you to see more in the scene. I don't like crushing. "Intent" or not. I do like that you get a choice with Samsung now. Some movies might just be best with static mapping and other active mapping.
