Where's the issue in that pic? I see no banding or posterization.RESET_9999 wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 3:34 am Yeah HDR10 on the G5 is broken, no doubt. This is a lot worse than the C2: https://slow.pics/c/AYrYCbvm

actually this is a slight improvement in cmv 2.9 4000 and 10 000nits.daffie wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 6:51 am @RESET
Hopefully a GOOD calibration will fix some things. Best to wait until the new TV has at least 100 hours uptime.
But I doubt you can get this black crush fixed in DV with calibration. 72-73 is really bad.
And hopefully firmware upgrades will do the rest to fix the issues.
So, even when you put your face right up to the screen, you still can't see the 65 to 72 flashing bars?RESET_9999 wrote: Tue Apr 29, 2025 11:27 pm 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
You don't need to see bar 65 and 66.

Yes, and even in cmv4.0 which is quite surprising. I'm confident this can be calibrated out.deadchip12 wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 5:27 pm So, even when you put your face right up to the screen, you still can't see the 65 to 72 flashing bars?
If you have a good calibration guy who knows his stuff inside and out.RESET_9999 wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 7:09 pmYes, and even in cmv4.0 which is quite surprising.

It's been rock solid for me on the latest CPM build. I do MKV backups of all my movies and it handles them all with exceptional quality.That markswift has no clue what he is talking about.SamuriHL wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 8:25 pm Ugoos not stable enough for daily? Oh crap, I better change my usage then.
Calibration is not easy. I'm still a novice and I've been doing it since the C8. What I will say is that if you don't have anyone that can do it locally it might be worth investing in the equipment to do it. What calibration software you choose can make a difference, too.daffie wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 8:13 pm If you have a good calibration guy who knows his stuff inside and out.
Not like my guy who didn't even look at the shadow detail in DoVi and just did an autocal which made things worse.
I don't give those people any attention. It becomes pretty clear who knows what they're talking about and who doesn't fairly quickly. Results speak for themselves. And the Ugoos with CPM is the best device I've used for DV playback.daffie wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 8:26 pm That markswift has no clue what he is talking about.
He has his own head to high up his Zidoo ass.
I know it's not easy. I read some things about it the last week and it's complicated like hell.SamuriHL wrote: Wed Apr 30, 2025 8:29 pmCalibration is not easy.

I mean this thread is about getting the highest quality you can out of your rips. Not having a properly calibrated display negates a lot of that effort IMO.
