P.S.
AMPAS ( https://www.oscars.org/ ) describes the Samuel Goldwyn Theater as a world-class theater. On a public service announcement side note relating to the phrase ‘world-class’, for those readers cognizant of the significance of state-of-the-art eye care for their health and well being, the Beverly Hills office of the USC Roski Eye Institute is literally a 5 min (or less) walk just down the block from the Samuel Goldwyn Theatre. The Eye Institute is staffed by clinicians and researchers who often have their work published in peer reviewed journals (with independent Editorial Boards), but as a supplement I’m linking easy to read articles. which. for some of you (and your children) may prove valuable someday -

Welcome
In regards to imaging parameters also keep in mind that music concerts look especially well in HDR (lights, colors), scroll down (the pic is not meant to represent the actual quality but the fact that it was done with May’n)….https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...t#post12265065

Particularly if for a potential Ultra HD Blu-ray release, unlike the previous Blu-ray master, the 4K recorded files (in contradistinction to the HD files) are used for the home deliverable since few realize this was a dualie production…. https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...co#post8312149

Forget to mention, I’m hearing that high rez music concert HDR footage might be shown at thee upcoming Inter BEE 2016 (Japan). This should help increase the awareness to content producers.

p.d. I Cant make a new thread with this theme

The theatrical showings of the Beatles documentary Eight Days a Week includes a 4k restoration (of original 35mm footage) of their Shea Stadium concert. Don't know what the home release format will be or if it will include that extra, but theatrically that looked pretty amazing IMO.

Do you know if the theatrical DCP is encoded at 4K resolution - my neighborhood theater is showing it and they have a 4K Christie projector

I'm pretty sure it is. My theater advertised it as "presented in 4K" (they list formats at the box office as they also do 35mm revival screenings) and it looked noticeably better than some other DCPs I've seen at that theater.

With the help of what started out as this technology from Tony at Tessive…. https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...d#post12434224 , one of many cutting edge presentations at last year’s HPA,

it enabled the footage shot for Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk to be cut into 72º slices which subsequently could be combined to create different looks. The 120 fps version used a 216º (3 x 72) virtual square shutter to reduce strobe, but retain detail . This flexibility means that the motion picture can be rendered in the different formats at 24, 60 and 120 fps in 2D and 3D and with both 2K and 4K spatial resolution.

^ That's one of my favourite scenes from the whole film. Sure hope we get to see it on Blu-ray one of these decades!

Is someone paying for 'clicks' for this thread, it's 3M+ today, I think it did almost 10K in the last 7-10 days.

Thanks to all the high tech info from P-man and the rest, the eyeballs keep hitting here for up-to-date info on hi-rez matters.

[Geoff D]

That's a lotta clicks but it's been going for 5 years already, so there's that.

Just one ingredient of next gen imagery.

Some of us have also been involved for awhile in helping out Bruce’s thread here, which has also served as a launching pad with regards to specific insight into the next big thing.

But the concepts in that particular thread are arguably more advanced especially when one gets truly geeky, thusly I think viewership in the HDR Discussion thread tends to be much more 'provincial', but of no less value.

Checking dates, the last million views were accumulated in ~ 5 months time, to the day, click on the milestone hyperlink -> https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...e#post12326645 for forum documentation.

I wish Steed was around to share in some of the accolades. I hope he’s o.k.

[Geoff D]

That's a lotta clicks.

For comparison. The Vizio P series thread on avs is the most active thread I've ever seen, and probably ever.

Awefully strange that this thread has 3 million views bit only 8500 posts.

Although, keep in mind that for theatrical distribution to more typical venues with Series 2 projector systems and IMBs, not having luxurious Mirage projectors and *special* sense servers, in terms of unique formats accessible to more theatergoers, concerted effort is being given more in trying to primarily provide higher fps versions (>24 fps [in 2D and 3D) rather than higher spatial rez (> 2K) deliverables.

[Geoff D]

With that in mind they'll shirley put out a 60p version on UHD Blu...won't they?
