Eternals 4K UHD (2021) - Blu-ray Forum

I freaking hate hot sauce...anyhow, I made Eternals look far better and now know what makes HDR brighter or dimmer in the file.
I call yesterday a win.
As someone who has been encoding for many many years, doing anything with HDR/DV is very new.....only in the past 9 months can we have DV in an MKV file.....outside of professional editing programs, we couldn't do anything with HDR. Now we can.

Obviously with this Eternals disc, no one at evil Disney gives two shakes about what they are dishing out...why should they?
Ultimately they want your 20 bucks a month for their god awful streaming service and want to see the end of physical media. Maybe they made this disc so bad on purpose...the last straw for a disc buyer.
Poor Disney HDR/DV quality is what sparked many discussions of no standards surrounding HDR...even though there are standards. They just made sure that "HDR/DV" popped up on the set you bought (like Atmos) and their job was done, you got what you paid for...even though it sucked big time.
I appreciate input from all here. I learn something everyday even at my advanced age !
