The upside? Tom can now concentrate on successfully lobbying DoD for a Blue Angels low Flyover

for the US theatrical premiere of Top Gun: Maverick.

Lordy, I’ve been a longtime (and now frustrated) advocate of increased temporal resolution (100/120 fps or greater), just check my past discussions with Steed and Richard Paul et al. dating back to 2014 and earlier. Heck, some of the citations and links I’ve used as promotional illustrations to the concept have since expired, e.g - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...ur#post8628879 .

Sure, HFR’s value for movies has been controversial and of constant cinephile/videophile debate every time someone like Peter Jackson or Ang Lee presents some > 24fps feature film. But what is irrefutable has been its picture quality value for live sports content of which I am an avid consumer and which, let’s face it, would be the primary motivator for implementation as that is what the VAST majority of the public would be interested in its use for in the first place if they were made aware of the valuable parameter. At this point I just hope somebody eventually steps up and takes the final step to complete the pipeline and bring HFR sports to fruition before some SARS-CoV-2 virus variant evolves which evades our vaccines like the South African variant has done with our monoclonal antibodies and I have to go back to being a complete hermit all over again in order to remain safe.

Animated Music Video Demo ...

* High Frame Rate for Sports (HFR / 120 fps) would be excellent.
...Olympic Games, Football, Soccer, Basketball, Badminton, Ping Pong, King Kong.

Are there any platforms where those two titles play as anything other than bog-standard 2-channel stereo from YouTube?
(I'm trying to work out if they are in the tiny minority of content which is actually >2 channels rather than being 2-channel stereo)

That I truly don't know.

If you have a Dolby Atmos device, or a pair of headphones on standby, and an OLED HDR Dolby Vision display, or an IMAX Enhanced display device, or if you like HDR moving pictures with Hi-Res Audio Surround moving sounds ...

It's a pandemic Penton, with freezing cold temperatures; everybody stay home, watching Netflix in HDR, if they have power. If not they start their engines.

DDH · 02-17-2021, 04:25 PM

Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ and Hulu are streaming favorites as Americans subscribe to more services amid COVID-19

Streaming is a world universal thing. Even Canada streams. And it streams in HDR.
The only box office expansion right now is in China.

No matter the platform, I’m really looking forward to the movie adaptation of The Daughters of Kobani and learning more of the true stories of the likes of Rojda

and Azeema –
