I am unfamiliar with DV implementation of HDR in comparison to the standard HDR. I think my TV supports both but if not... would I really be missing out on anything?

Dolby Vision offers frame by frame image optimization options for developers I think. HDR 10 does not.

[StoneyYoshi]

Dolby vision is the best form of HDR in my opinion. My Sony TV supports it and I enjoy it with Disney+ and Netflix. Unfortunately PS5 only supports HLG HDR or its just HDR10 but it still looks great dependent on the game of course since some games push out fake HDR support.

Om Dolby vision you Can set the optimization on each frame, which means that you can achieve much better dynamic Solution. There is a huge difference and fantastic to see this coming to games.

Dolby vision is a much better implementation of HDR basically.

SDR is 8bit depth with 16.7 million colors
HDR (or HDR10/10+) is 10bit depth with 1.07 billion colors.
Dolby Vision is 12bit depth with 68.7 billion colors.

So you end up with a much wider range of brightness levels, graduations of colors, and a much smoother transition overall. It's like night and day when you see it in the flesh, whether at home or in a Dolby theater.

Dolby Vision is far superior. My LG OLED supports it, and the HDR implementation is brilliant. You'll know too when you're using it because you'll get a Dolby Vision pop up in the top right corner vs HDR when you use the PS5 for example.

[Notellin]

Dang how are you doing that when PS5 doesn't support Dolby Vision at all?

[BenRC01]

Barely any difference in day to day viewing, also it needs to be implemented properly which is rarely the case, especially on netflix. You won't notice anything above standard hdr without digital foundry doing a frame by frame deep dive (which isn't reality)

I just want Dolby Atmos and DTS-X for in game Surround. Not just movies.
