P7 FEL > P5 > P8 (= P7 MEL)

Usually it's very hard for me to find the P5 version of a tv series online. Most are P8.

In order to do that you have to connect both the Ugoos and your PC to the "ugreen usb 3.0 switch"? Correct? Yes. Not really an option for me. My Ugoos is hooked up below in the living room. My pc is upstairs in the bedroom :) Well then I guess in your case a powerful router to handle 4k h...

Yes.

@RESET_9999 @Epedemic Sorry I meant the external hdd was connected to the ugoos via usb, so dovi_scripts was running on the ugoos (I only operated it from my pc via smb share), so network speed is not relevant here, correct? The ugoos is probably not capable enough to run dovi_scripts, that's why th...

@RESET9999 I usually run dovi_scripts (mostly for transferring CMV 4.0 from the web to the Blu-ray version) on the external HDD connected to my PC. Afterward, I unplug it from the PC and plug it into the Ugoos to watch movies. To avoid these plug/unplug steps, I'm thinking about running dovi_scripts...

Could you let me know which rpu I should use for Presence (2024)? There are 3 of them in your folder. Thanks.

Presence.2024.2160p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.HDR.H.265 Generated T3.xml
Presence.2024.BD Generated T3.xml
Presence.2024.BD_Generated_T3 (frame by frame).xml

One more thing I noticed on the G5. The RGB white balance trick doesn't work to fix the DV raised black, not even at -6/-6-/6.

This sucks

But I noticed something very bad. In dark scenes, DV has some sort of ''falling'' noise/grain with diagonal lines. Not sure how to describe it. It's very noticeable in the 10% grayscale file, and even at normal viewing distance. https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/13SVBiy-lVWq28SsmydEdvN2ZGh...

People are reporting hdr10 near black is too bright. Yes, I saw that in the AVForums YouTube review, and I think I’m noticing the same issue on my unit with the Kung Fu Panda sample. Pure black is truly black in all three modes: HDR10, DV, and SDR. I’ll be doing more testing this weekend. For now, ...

blacks are not raised in DV but crushed, even in cmv4.0
There is actually no difference at all in DV black crush on this TV... cmv2.9 4.0, 10 000 4000 1000, all crushed the same at 72-73.
HDR10 and SDR are ok

Yeah HDR10 on the G5 is broken, no doubt. This is a lot worse than the C2: https://slow.pics/c/AYrYCbvm

Where's the issue in that pic? I see no banding or posterization.

Just used your files to test black crush. SDR looked the most accurate—I could see all the flashing bars up to 65 from my seat (1.2m from the 65-inch TV). HDR10 crushed blacks more; in order to see the 65 bar, I had to move my face closer to the screen. Dolby Vision was by far the worst—I could bar...

I haven't watched it, but if you restore CMv4.0, it shouldn't be more crushed than HDR10. The movie is 99.99% under 500 nits, but the trim does have a couple of shots that get darker because of the slope adjustments. If I recall correctly, your TV has a target higher than 1000 nits, so that won't a...

@RESET9999 Do you mind checking A Complete Unknown (2024)? It seems the movie crushes blacks heavy. I tried raising the brightness slider on my a95l from the default 50 to 51 and a lot of shadow details became visible, but that surely was not the right way to do it. Is there a dolby vision test patt...
