Android 8.0 Oreo/ 9.0 Pie

Is it OK to expect Android Oreo on 2017 Sony Android TVs?

I do not have Netflix account anymore so my reference for Dolby vision is the only available on prime video (Jack Ryan). I set the black level on hdr10 pattern (no Dolby pattern available as far as I know) and indeed on Jack Ryan the darker detail are better. The overall image is darker than sdr images but this is what I think the producer made

Be also aware I'm talking about an A1 Oled panel, do not know how other panel works

Yeh, Sabrina in HDR10 (on the XE or the PS4 Pro is fine). Its just very dark with Dolby Vision on the XG. Its quite bizare there is no way to actually disable DV in the menu and resorting to HDR10 without switching device or downgrading your Netflix plan.....

Believe me, Sabrina would be dark on your A1 too.

Disabling should be done on source side. The only HDR protocol that works both in sdr and HDR at receiver level is hlg

It could be, but as I said before it could depend heavely on the source. I'm a fan of GOT adn even if it was in SDR 1080p it was unwatchable, slightly better with the new encoding delivered by sky after all the complains..

You can adjust the gamma  and/or the black level. Better do it via pattern support in order not to wash out the overall image. Actually I set the gamma level to zero and black adjust to 51/52, but it depends strictly on your set and panel technology

I think with gamma at zero and black adjust to 52 Sabrina on Netflix with DV would be very dark for you too on a Sony TV.

---

Please correct me if I am wrong, but upon HDR detection Brightness is already set to Max, Gamma already to 0 and X-tended Dynamic range to High.

[rooobb]

Not sure about gamma. Correct for the other.  Black level is untouched

Not sure what you are asking me? My post is a statement "with gamma at zero and black adjust set to 52".

Nothing in that statement is in conflict to what you are saying? Black adjust can be altered in HDR mode, it will just wash the picture out if taken high.

[zer0ner0]

No question. Just stating that with HDR detected the values below are automatically set to:

Brightness: Max

Gamma: 0

X-tended Dynamic Range: High

So my point is that gamma is already to 0.
