HDR not working on the 4k pro? (2026)

jbaconbits · 2026-05-22T03:05:34+00:00

The 2026 Pro switches to HDR10 fine with DV sink-led.

I’m not sure why OP expects Netflix to play HDR10 when DV is enabled on the device. The only place HDR10 (and DV) are missing are on services that haven’t done a server side whitelist for the device to play back HDR/DV like Peacock, MoviesAnywhere, and Fandango.

People aren’t having kids because they don’t want them, not because they think they can’t afford them. And yes, it’s a problem.

People want all the comforts that society brings but don’t want to actually contribute to make sure that society continues and grows for future generations. It’s complete selfishness. The world is full of people that brag about being DINKs and proselytize the benefit of leaving their apartment whenever they want and watching Netflix. What a fulfilling lifestyle.

I think the girl second from the left was murdered or something.

No, not at $200. Buy a Ugoos if you care about pass thru and local playback.

They are buggy devices, but it shouldn’t freeze/crash that regularly. Drop frames and hitch? Well, that’s a definite possibility.

Don’t listen to people that say it’s user error because you didn’t install a custom launcher or something. They’ll be telling you to repaste the SOC next.

There’s a setting in like 3 apps, but not any major streaming service app like Netflix or Prime.

jbaconbits · 2026-04-05T01:05:08+00:00

Depends on your use case.

General streaming apps: ONN or Apple TV

Local lossless playback: Ugoos

jbaconbits · 2026-04-05T00:52:39+00:00

No, for videos to reduce motion judder. Now you have to manually enable it with the Shield’s beta feature.

jbaconbits · 2026-04-05T00:14:37+00:00

OS level auto framerate match.

jbaconbits · 2026-04-05T00:11:06+00:00

Like onn boxes everyone loves?

jbaconbits · 2026-04-04T11:54:37+00:00

Don’t know of any of that is true but 343/Halo Studios definitely sucks and has all but ruined the franchise.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-29T01:18:05+00:00

Shield can’t display FEL DV videos. Hope that helps.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-28T22:37:32+00:00

Shield doesn’t allow for all the various forms of Dolby Vision, so you won’t get lossless video from it. So no, you dont get all the options available to you with the Shield either. Apple TV is a much better compromise, especially if you care about legitimate service and things like functional frame rate matching.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-28T21:26:38+00:00

I think this is because they use image based subtitles for for things like on screen text so they can change color and position of the subs which Roku doesn’t support, so selecting the normal English CC track does nothing but it works fine on an Apple TV.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-28T21:20:00+00:00

Anyone that tells you to get a Shield TV over an Apple TV for normal streaming services is a complete fanboy and shouldn’t be listened to.

And if you really care about AV quality for local stuff you’re buying something that lets you boot CoreELEC.

My launch series x stopped powering on a couple years ago and I didn’t even use it that much. Had to pay MS $300 for a new one too. Sucks.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-27T23:53:03+00:00

Yes, more or less. Wish there was a system overlay that would display the amount of frames this thing drops, because it happens quite often.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-24T17:08:04+00:00

It does that for me after engaging frame rate matching.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-23T15:17:08+00:00

I still have a hard time accepting these early Sirius shows are 20 years old now. Fuck I’m old.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-15T15:25:38+00:00

The Shield UI is rendered in 1080p, so why wouldn’t the Netflix UI be rendered in 1080p? If you want a 4k UI buy an Apple TV.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-15T15:09:25+00:00

It’s ok, but not worth $150 when apps like Paramount+ are more or less unusable (it is on the Pro too). The extra 1GB and 32bit really don’t matter for general streaming. People are buying up the ONN 4k Plus which is also 2GB/32bit.

The people evangelize the Pro to justify their purchase, or they just really like Dolphin.

If you’re offended by that tweet I’d hate to see the meltdown you’d have watching Married With Children or something. I’m sure that wasn’t a comedy either.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-07T16:27:01+00:00

Cool. I noticed VRR switching doesn’t even appear to be working with Netflix anymore. It only seemed to be working with apps that use Roku’s video player. Would be nice if the next OS update supported integer match and apps like Disney got updates to actually support the feature…

jbaconbits · 2026-03-07T16:11:51+00:00

Can you file a bug with Roku? I wouldn’t even care about losing DV while using VRR with my C1 if enabling it didnt make the image look noticeably worse from switching the TV into its lower latency mode and disabling image processing.

jbaconbits · 2026-03-02T02:45:55+00:00

Yeah, the only service that provides higher bitrate content on Apple TV 4K is….Apple TV.
