HDR movies? If it was actually shot in HDR it's superb. HDR Videogames? If I wanted everything to be too dark I'd just stay in my apartment all day

analog film holds more light and colors than t he eye can see

It needs to be standardized first and the standard enforced.
Otherwise it just becomes a slightly larger gamut of random colors - how can you make you game look good if you can't know reliably what it will look like on user's display device?

At least it is on Android.

Requires a lot of setup, but I like it when it's properly setup
People can't understand why I'd like HDR, like it's some sort of meme. I don't think it is, it's just there's more of a concept and less of a working product for everyone to enjoy. And people get lied into "this shitty IPS panel supports HDR", that's the experience they get, and they don't want it.

If I don't enable it on any device connected to my TV then the blacks are just backlit gray instead of actually pitch black on most medium, otherwise I don't really care

A incredibly successful Hollywood director uses side by side comparisons on $40K worth of monitor to show no difference between SDR & HDR on the highly capable monitors to a group of industry professionals. They back up all their claims using maths.

>>105640873
Really now? Because I have an HDR monitor right next to an SDR monitor and the difference in highlight brightness is night and day. Midtones and shadows are exposed similarly. So I don't know what the fuck they're smoking.

Now their argument COULD make sense, if they're ignoring luminosity and only concerning themselves with color, as while HDR includes the CAPACITY for a wider color gamut, it's ultimately up to artistic intent as to whether that capacity is utilized, and far more often than not, content color falls well within SDR gamut space. Even a vibrant, lush, colorful forest is very desaturated compared to the capabilities of SDR, let alone HDR. You really have to go into the domain of man's creation before you can start to find colors that surpass SDR gamut (and even then, it's usually only things like neon lights and monochromatic lasers that can produce Rec.2020 color). And then there's the problem that Rec.2020 itself is pretty much impossible to hit on even the highest end of monitors. DCI-P3 is the current "high-end".

tl;dr HDR for more vibrant colors is gay, HDR for better luminosity is absolute kino

I'm swallowing it slowly.
I tried the switch 2 at a friends and turn it on/off and it does make a big difference but I also want everything for my desktop so that means 4K, high refresh, oled + hdr and that's a grand minimum right now.

nta, the way I see it, hdr makes sense, just, and just just, use hdr footage, which is nothing else that 32 bits footage or whatever that has overbrights and darks
my take? I won't buy an hdr monitor until hdr footage is everywhere because is futre-proofing and that, potentially can't end well

in fact I want to buy a second monitor, for programming and torrented movies in 4k, and every new bit of info I aquire on the new display technologies makes me want to buy it less and less, as I stand now, everything has massive faults that kinda make me want just an lcd, and I'm not even sure if they sell those anymore, 4k howevr I'm convinced of, but imo, yeah, dinamic range (not talking about hdr) is more important, anyways, fuck current monitors

>>105640013 (OP)
It's a meme on non-OLED screen, like the Switch 2.

>HDR for more vibrant colors is gay, HDR for better luminosity is absolute kino
Indeed, but for some retarded reason HDR has been advertised to be just "more vibrant" and that's it. Currently I think it's the most misunderstood technology advancement I've seen in recent years. I know of plenty of people that think "HDR more color".

>>105641022
>Currently I think it's the most misunderstood technology advancement I've seen in recent years
Well it certainly doesn't help that the poor acronym has had like six entirely different meanings throughout the years. You remember "HDR" photos? Fancy term for exposure bracketing, 100% SDR. "HDR rendering pipeline" is actually linear-gamma scene-referred rendering space for lighting calculations in game, or sometimetimes it's used as a fancy term for eye adaptation in games.
Then there's """HDR""" TVs which can accept an HDR signal... and not much else. Special razz to those faggot-ass global-dimming TVs that did literally nothing.
And the current nightmare we face is the multitudes of HDR signal standards, each with their own transfer curves and peak luminosities, and whatnot, of which any particular signal standard may or may not be supported by a display which will have its own capability for actually displaying the damned thing and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>105641019
I just bought a holdover display until something a little more permanent comes along. Maybe the timelines will converge and we'll enter a multiverse with commercially viable MicroLED, or QDEL will actually make progress in our universe. For now, I do all my HDR work and viewing on a cheap budget miniLED I bought for $280. Surprisingly great HDR performance on it, though.

>>105641142
Yeah, Valve games used that term too. They had their little Lost Coast demo to showcase "HDR".

>Did you take the pill?
Yes, I have two HDR monitors but Debian does not support HDR on Stable yet.

>>105640013 (OP)
All my monitors and both TVs have HDR. I have it switched off on every single device.

I have an HDR 4k TV and an HDR “gaymen” monitor. I shut that shit off. I don’t like the way it looks at all.

>>105640013 (OP)
>Did you take the pill?
No because I actually want super wide vivid neon color gamut in my desktop UI, anime and games all the time and I don't watch live movies nor play gray-and-brown military shooters on this display.

>>105640013 (OP)
Usecase?

>>105641142
>its own capability for actually displaying the damned thing and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I get that, I think it's a laser disc situation, just let it cook for a few years and hope something is standardized and the rest die
