Is yours the only tv that can do that? I’m sure my tv can only reach peak brightness of a 1000 nits. I take it 4000 or 5000 is more peak brightness than my tele could handle. Does that mean the Meg on 4k would be too much for my tv to handle? Have I got that right?

My TV does nowhere near that kind of peak brightness, I'm saying that I can use other picture modes to deliver a tone mapping that extends to showing 4000 or 5000 nits worth of highlight information, NOT the brightness itself.

You're better off disregarding that post anyway as I realised soon after that DV wasn't the saviour it was made out to be after all. In any case, I've no idea how The Meg will look on your TV, it's an HDR torture test for sure though.
