I’ve tried this. It didn’t work. My last interview the guy asked me how does knowing the difference between ssd and hdd drives help you with flipping hamburgers?
Before 2016 all I knew was that 4K > 1080 and OLED > LCD. I had no idea about HDR, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, refresh rate and nits. I own a 65 inch LG OLED C6 that is capable of 3D, HDR10 at 60hz and Dolby Vision at 30hz. I have an Apple TV 4K hooked up to it, but I mostly use the RUclips app in WebOS. What I want is a real 8K Apple big screen television.
The person in the video is like Richard Leadbetter of Digital Foundary, the way he expresses with those hands. I approve. Great video by the way, keep it up.
HDR is a total game changer! I just upgraded to my first 4K HDR Sony TV and was blown away by the enhanced contrast and color achieved in HDR, especially Dolby Vision. It's very difficult to go back and watch regular SDR content now. It's really a difference of night and day!
Jovon BlackPixel You do Chroma Key compression or on 4:4:4 to see this? 12 bit color depth? understanding it, not need to understand, just buy the best? evolved, you, why that, video recorder guy? now on HEVC levels?
This is probably the best tech explainer series available on RUclips and in this universe. Just blown away by the shear among of detailed knowledge you give in videos. Thank you very much.🤗🤘🏻
Wow. This is perhaps one of the best presentation out there about this subject. The what, the how, the why, the who. Everything is there. Bravo! Great video. A gem. Liked and subscribed.
I haven't been to Engadget for a while and I'm extremely and pleasantly surprised to see this kind of high level, detailed and explained content, seriously this is far beyond anything I've seen from you guys in years. I was under the impression that you had totally casualized your tech reporting and you audience, I'll be visiting your site, Fantastic video
Ok, so here i was a cinema enthusiast (or so i thought) having knowledge of the basics, but you have come along again to to teach me everything i knew and everything i had questions for regarding the things i knew. I need to stop working so hard and just watch and support Chris' content. He:ll never lead us astray.
This needs to be spun out into its own channel. It's excellent. I'm probably not going to subscribe to Engadget because the vast majority of their videos don't interest me enough, but Upscaled is awesome. Super detailed explanations in a very engaging format.
The quality of Dolby Vision is unreal. Props to them for making an international standard. Now with Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision there’s really no need to go to a theater. They consistently deliver a perfect experience for the everyday person.
HDR10+ is already finalized, all of it is internal Dolby vision (also IcTcP color space but not really important). And it is a standard for Blu-ray now. Mandatory.
@@AKSBSU it is because there is a different calibration for Dolby vision vs HDR10. And actually dolby vision is wrongly calibrated. There is not so many differences between them except that ICtCp can give more colors with lower bitrate and dynamic metadata is a little better than Dynamic Tone mapping. But idrally there should not be many differences.
Very well explained. Even a few years into 4K and with 8K on the horizon, I find the gains in resolution to be almost negligible at normal viewing distance. But HDR is definitely something that can make certain movies and video games look much better. It'd be just nice if there weren't that many standards involved and wildly varying levels of peak brightness from screen to screen. An HDR400 monitor is kind of lackluster compared to a screen with an actual peak brightness of 1000 nits. (though it can still look noticably nicer than SDR)
Love that someone take the time to explain these different kind of HD formats. I have the LG oled C8 and I always have set up my regular broadcast channels in HDR and it shows a way better digital broadcasting. In case of Netflix or Amazon prime video, etc.There is not much to do. They already have their own Dolby standards settled.
@14:05 That weird moment when part of his had disappears. I'm guessing something in the background they cut out but didn't expect his hand to be all up there. lol
Kishore S the only thing you need to understand is color depth, and compression less then 4:4:4, 12 bit color depth. Rec.2020, how many % true is it what you see? Dark VS bright contrast ratio, nit, how bright you light up the room too.... these formats? HDR10 you meant, house wife levels, for people that are stupid...Forget that name!
This is a great video to show your kids when they want the latest smart TV. If they can explain and understand all the content in this video then they deserve a smart TV. I have headache now. Lol
Would love to see how this information relates to the gaming settings on the new consoles like PS5, XBOX or higher end GPUs and some typical graphical settings you see in games
Well 3 years later there are a few TVs that can do 4000 nits or really close. But sounds like everything mentioned is still applies. Very good tutorial thanks.
Very articulate, you just explained most video technology terminology easiest way possible, now I can understand gamma curve way better, how analog signal quantized in digital and then reprocessed backwards for human analog consumption, great job in explaining this. I do have a wishlist for you to explain 24hz vs 60hz vs 120 have.g cinema vs soap opera. Thank you.
Great summary of some complex subjects in a relatively short video. There could have been a bit more clear explaining on the difference between sRGB vs REC709 however. Rec709 is the broadcast standard that all television uses and has different gamma curve than sRGB (2.4 vs 2.2)
Finally!! Thank you for the good explanation. Now when im showing off my new TV I can explain all the details of HDR: "Brighter, more contrast, colour gamut something... argh, just watch, it looks amazing!!"
Got it. But seriously, this was extremely well written. 10/10. If it wasn’t written? And you just ad-libbed this? Then it’s 20/10 and I’m pretty sure you must be a savant or some sort of robot like a Terminator or some-such. I bought a 4K for its hdmi 2.1 for VRR and 120hz for gaming but I very much agree with you in that I am finding HDR to be a much more “wow” part of my experience than I expected.
The first video I see that actually addresses the differences of these standards in terms simple enough that I can understand. Thank you. R. P.S. I guess my next TV will have to have Douby HDR... Question: Can LCD QLED TVs display Dolby HDR, or is that OLED only? I ask because I am NOT willing to risk burn in when buying my new TV, which OLEDs are subject to.
That is why some of the TV sets offer DV IQ - which simply measures an ambient light in the room where it is placed so the content displayed should looks closer to the one mastered by the production.
Gotta be honest. Dude, as techie as I am (35 year IT Pro/Electronic Engineer, stated humbly nevertheless), you trounce every reviewer there probably is on this stuff. And while I'm very sure you don't set out to impress people, I ended up VERY impressed with your knowledge; no hater over here. There's just no way I'll remember anything you said as I'm buying my television lol . No way I'd be able to play your video again while in the TV isle deciding. know what I mean? More can be less.. I now get the saying. My thumb voted down for too much info. But both thumbs are up on your knowledge, and I am subscribing.
I still remember watching Equilibrium on a CRT projector that was calibrated so that black literally does not produce any visible light. The first action scene was spectacular. And so I'm ambivalent about this HDR stuff. I've always been a sucker for rich blacks and strong contrasts but most TVs labelled HDR-ready can't even support that because of the underlying technology, so I can't really find myself caring as much as I care about things such as OLED or MicroLED.
We aren’t in a format war, they just upgrade it. Apart from cinephiles, no ones really interested in it with streaming sadly. 4K HDR is fantastic. It’s really good. Far better than Blu-ray. However the human eye can’t distinguish much more, but I do love how they’ve really worked hard on the better picture quality.
Oh man, instead of my teacher trying to explain color spaces and HDR, he just should played that video xD Best explainer i´ve seen so far for that topic :)
I am a pretty tech-y person, but I recently bought an HDR TV and I had to do so much more research about HDR than I was expecting to use it properly! These things sure aren’t plug n’ play haha
Watching American gods on Amazon prime on our 75" samsung q70t was the first show that blew me away. Comparing it our sdr 1080p 43" LG it was night and day. I completely agree HDR is waaaay more impressive and important than 4k is. It completely changes the viewing experience and I'm continually in awe pausing and rewinding. Side note* after 2 trys with the q70t and various issues we are waiting for our 75" Sony x900h that supports dolby vision and I'm soooo excited to experience dolby vision. I'm excited to see if I can notice a difference compared to hdr 10/ 10+ that the samsung supported. Great video and extremely well put to gether to explain all of this. Thank you!!!
Thanks, a good review... and updated Dolby Vision... I did notice HDR gaming... it made a nice improvement of games (XBOX ONE X). I had a Non-HDR 4k TV, then upgraded to a HDR10 with Dolby Vision... and it was an impressive upgrade on content images.
I have a 55 inch lg oled tv with Ethernet plugged into it and I can assure you that Dolby vision is absolutely beautiful. Stranger things and the chilling adventures of Sabrina look awesomeeeee
University: So what made you interested in a Phd in Digital Signal Processing?
You: er, im trying to buy a new Television.

Dolby vision video brags about their "color scientists"
Honestly? I do have a PhD in Signal and Image Processing, so now I would know which TV to buy... but I can't afford it.

It's unlike anything else in youtube. The perfect middle ground in detail: not hard to understand, not too slim to leave you dissatisfied.

And finding that one perfect TV that supports all of these HDR type formats is a PAIN!!
Upscaled are the best videos on Engadget, this guy is awesome and very knowledgeable.

Short, informative, everything in 1 video, saved me a lot of time. thank you.
I've done all this stuff at university and frankly learned quite a bit!
Everything I already knew seems spot on in terms of accuracy 👌
Wow, 3 years later and such a great video, thank you! Really helps me understand things related to HDR.
That was a great explanation of the standards.
Holy molly. It should be floated as a semester course. This should be the benchmark for tech-informative videos. Simply best.
A brilliant explanation gama-curved for general understanding. This is the HDR of instructional videos for highly technical topics.
Bro I just can't store your detailed explanation in my brain..I have to watch it again with slow motion.👍👍✌👌
Man these upscaled videos are very well explained
you can start a university for explaining tech
This is blu-ray vs HD DVD on steroids!
The bit depth of my neurons seem to allow me to understand that stuff, I'm glad I updated my firmware to HDB16++ (High Dynamic Brain ) :D
A moment of appreciation for the legends the understood everything this guy said in this video
