Hi there, I have Z10 Pro and was wondering if there was a way to disable DV on an mkv backup and just play HDR10 layer to compare to DV. I used F9 as an example, but it always triggers DV and I can't check HDR10. Is there a way to disable DV playback? I tried setting to HDR10 vs auto but it froze the picture. Thanks!
use custom EDID, BT.2020 HDR10. http://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?threads/edid-thread-fw-v6-1-10-onwards-updated.86856/
If you mean setting HDR to "Mapping HDR10" there's absolutely no reason that shouldn't work for a properly ripped Profile 7 DV MKV. But as @thaworn R says, the best solution is to load a custom EDID.
For HDR10 versus DV most are (very) convinced that DV is better but for HDR10+ versus DV it is much more a matter of taste and may be varying with the movie mastering.
Yes, I agree. Using my Vertex2 utilising a similar EDID, allowing me to switch between DV and HDR10, I find it difficult to see the differences. I'm using a Samsung (non-DV) so I'm actually comparing Player-Led LLDV vs HDR10. So whether this means actual DV is better than HDR10, I don't know because I have no means to test.
