well, no problemo for here you go….

I can see all the letters. Does that make me special, pa?

Also, seeing all the letters is dependent on how you adjust the contrast and brightness of your monitor.

For my last eye test, I turned up early. “I have come for my eye test” I said. The guy replied “You are in the butchers son”.

“Oh, in that case, I will have a pound of bacon”
He said “Lean back?”
I did and I fell over.

sorry.

those who sign up for ACESCentral on-site at ACES Booth - T123 on June 1, June 2 get a hot or cold beverage (other years I’ve attended have been in the high 90’s and pushing 100 °F, this year expected to be cooler, but still warmer than the recent mild weather we've been experiencing this week)

Note: (from- https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/...t-f21363ea3781 ) “we (Netflix) teamed up with Dolby Laboratories in Sunnyvale, CA to create our master color grade using the Pulsar: Dolby’s well-characterized P3-D65 PQ display capable of reproducing luminance levels up to 4000 cd/m². Though at the time atypical for a Dolby Vision workflow, we chose to master our content in ACES so that we could later create derivative output formats for infinitely many displays. With the exception of our first pass color grade, our post-production workflow is outlined as follows:….”



“….We used this Dolby Vision master as a source format to our encoding pipeline, from which we derive Dolby Vision, HDR10 and SDR bitstreams.

Hopefully, the refs rein in players like Ramos so there is not a repeat of something like the ’66 or '70 World Cup…

At the time of this posting, month of May viewership for this thread maths out to a tad more than 68,000 views. Perhaps we’ll reach 69,000 by midnight PST (total at end of April was ~ 1,090,030). Not shabby at all for a transitional month leading into the summer holiday season, which I think traditionally has less activity.

Congrats to all the readers and contributors (https://forum.blu-ray.com/misc.php?d...osted&t=276605) and I pleasantly notice a couple of new-to-the-thread guys participated in May.

I don’t know what it’s like across the pond, but hospital based teaching institutions in the U.S. apparently face challenges…..”Most respondents (121 of 177 [68.4%]) reported that their programs faced an issue involving depression, burnout, or suicide among residents within the past year; 26.3% of respondents (61 of 232) reported being involved in a case when resident fatigue, burnout, or depression adversely affected a medical outcome or judgment.” https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...stract/2680587

HDR10+ dynamic metadata, on the other hand, can adjust brightness levels, color saturation, and contrast on a … frame-by-frame basis…

Amazon assured me that all Prime HDR videos do indeed automatically play in HDR10+ on supported Samsung TV models

20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. have also announced their support for HDR10+. No specific titles have been announced yet, but both companies are expected to release Ultra HD Blu-ray discs … content with HDR10+ later this year.

Which of the above statements is probably false? Could it be all of the above?

Maybe a better title for the article is “Where is HDR10+?”

Test his knowledge beyond “Home Theater 101’. With regards to mapping in HEVC SEI messages, ask him which dynamic metadata format does not use the ITU-T T.35 wrapper; whereas, thee other approaches do.
