Odd glitch with the pro, the video output mode stays in wide color HDR when switching to Netflix, you can't change it as that will close GT Sport (and lose progress) So I watched DS9 an SD show displayed in wide color HDR. They had some very bright lights on that space station and extra bright colors. (It's the tv interpreting the signal as if it's wide color HDR, extrapolating the whites and widening the color range, it's like watching tv on shrooms) HDMI is awesome, not.

The always online will piss a lot of people... so you played on shrooms? kkk... well when I enable HDR and use netflix most content was on a very strange coloring and most times too bleached and to much light.

A long time ago, it enhances.distorts color, as wat happens when you enable deep color on normal content.
DS9 is a pretty dark and muted show color wise so it wasn't that distored. People did look like they aged a lot due to the high contrast in their faces.
Too much light indeed, I felt like I needed sunglasses every time the bright panel lighting was in view!

Btw people forget that GT Sport is made for bt.2020 color space. All the art had to be redone as all the existing art was made for rec.709 The game is displaying colors I've never seen come out of a tv set before. HZD dawn looks great too with HDR but the color difference with GT Sport is noticeable. I never thought I would say stuff like this: When you get a new random car, that color red from the selector is damn sexy. I don't care about the car, just show me that color again lol.

GT Sport is really future proof with HDR upto 10k nits and full bt.2020 support. My tv can handle max 5 on the logarithmic scale setting from 1 to 10, and displays 96% of dci-p3 color space which is still a subsection of bt.2020 (76% max). GT Sport is ready for the next generation of tvs. The question is, will the cost prove too much and will the franchise get irrevocably damaged by this reset for what currently still is a niche of niche.
