And which ones will be hdmi 2.1 compatible? For dynamic high dynamic range... (I'm not making that up)

what the fuck is dynamic high dynamic range, and whats the difference between it and regular HDR

In the HDR (High Dynamic Range) department, HDMI 2.1 is adding support for ”Dynamic HDR”. This means that HDMI will be capable of passing dynamic metadata for HDR content on a scene-by-scene or even frame-by-frame basis. This is one of the components that make the Dolby Vision HDR format unique but today it requires a DV composer at both the transmitting and receiving end. HDMI 2.1 will be able to transmit it in a standardized fashion.

Basically it allows more detailed gradients by setting the range on a per scene basis instead of using a fixed logarithmic scale for the entire content which is what HDR 10 does currently. It should also remove some problems that HDR content can look very different on different tvs.
