Penton, if for each view you would be getting one dollar (tax-free), what would you do with some of the money? ...New bike, 8K HDR camera, remodel home theater room, second honeymoon, ...?

Took the family to El Capitan for The Rocketeer back in the day. We had a great time with our 2 kids. There were costumes and props on display. There may have been a live performance element before the movie started.

For the past 30 days worth, meaning $61,207…. I would donate $10,000 to each of these charities -

https://www.hireheroesusa.org/
https://www.taps.org/
https://www.navysealfoundation.org/
https://challengeaspen.org/
https://www.fisherhouse.org/

then with the $1,000 and change left, I’d get my wife a nice gift TBD, putting aside just enough to shamelessly treat myself with this box set and goodies – https://www.amazon.com/Lebowski-20th...imited+edition

and $150. as a present for my neighbor (and good friend) upcoming birthday for a local Ca++ scan

perhaps upon him seeing the imagery of his arteries maybe changing his mind with regards to the value of taking statins.

More Dynamic Metadata please!

I don’t see it mentioned there ^, but something worth noting, since it may shake things up a bit with future deliverables is that Resolve 15.2 now supports a 3,000 nit ST2084 EOTF selection in resolve color management.

Correlate with the nits column in this chart as to the monitor (available to buy) this feature will benefit -

The 8.1 file disnae work on mah OPPO 203, it busts it down to HDR10 albeit with the 4000/0.005 mastering retained. Doesn't even recognise it as a Dolby Vision file. Too new a profile for da player?
