Any suggestions?

buy a macbook pro

windows and linux cant natively play 4k videos yet

You're viewing limited RGB content on a Full RGB monitor, the video player should be doing the conversion but it isn't for some reason.

Yeah but why? I have a 4K TV with HDR.

This is my config.

Output color at 4:2:0
output colour depth at 10 bpc

Hmm, dunno?

Apply the 4:2:0 and you'll see more bit options appear .... also fullscreen your applications

Try the limited dynamic range option
I'm not sure about HDR since I don't have a capable TV, but standard Bluray content is mastered for the limited 16-235 RGB range.

dont listen to this noob

No change.

lol @ 4k HDR meme

that's the way you do it though. Not sure what media player you're using. But games are HDR for me with those settings.

Use mpv, not even kidding.

Shit, that worked.

What a subtle mpv shill thread, good job OP

OP, it won't look good on a normal monitor without brightness mapping HDR to SDR, search mpv docs for this.

>nvidia is retarded enough to call yuv levels as "dynamic range"

That's not how reality looks like

My TV has HDR.

cant really show off HDR with a screenshot

Can someone give a quick run down?

But you can see the difference between and right?

Color Format: 4:2:0
Color Depth: 10 bpc
HDR compatible player/ games in fullscreen

Is your TV really saying the source is HDR?

Hmm while left has better colors, it's really blurry.

How is your PC connected to your TV? The signal is highly unlikely to contain HDR metadata for the TV to recognize it as such. Have you tried viewing the video from a USB stick instead?

My Samsung always says "UHD Color" when connected to my TV, as far as I can read, that's what it should say if it's HDR.

You need to tweak it further manually, look up the settings.

I have no clue what any of those settings are.

>You need to tweak it further manually,
That's why no one will ever take mpv seriously

Thanks user.
This looks gimmicky.. is this really some faux HDR shit or is it reading HDR info fromt the source? The right picture looks like you've fucked with the image to make it look like shit.

What's happening is mpv is remapping the brightness of your "HDR" video to fit an SDR monitor. Just play with the settings and see what makes the white subtitles not look grayed out.
Try looking in the menus for an option to set the specific input as HDR. Try following this post too:

Literally just works here, I don't know what OP is doing.

mpv

Thanks. I didn't even know that Blue Planet 2 came out. Now I have something to watch.

thanks yify

That's HDR for you.

>kernel cant play 4k videos, lincucks btfo

This is what it actually looks like in mpv

Sir Attenborough is the narrator?

Yes

Why are you using hdmi and not superior display port

noice

You should download Amazon webrip. It has higher bitrate and 5.1 audio

I wonder when chinks will star making faux hrd screens that just crank the gamma way up.

i'm on it
thanx man

No problem

4k HDR bullshit only works well on certain TVs from my experience

Lowkey mpv shill thread.

yes we can

yes, hdr tvs.

Don't stop posting

Isn't this dude like over 90. How the fuck does he do it?

My display doesn't do HDR. Yamate!!

HDR is mastered to limited range too FWIW

The Planet Earth II BD is stupidly retardedly oversatured. I suspect something was seriously fucked up in their encoding process. If you force it to be treated as BT.709 instead of BT.2020, it looks about right (if you use mpv: --vf=format:primaries=bt.709)

Other HDR BDs don't have this issue; it's just PE2. Also, if you're using mpv, try --tone-mapping=hable --hdr-compute-peak

HDR is a meme

This is what it looks like in libplacebo (with the fix from applied)
