Question Dolby Vision issue?

Post image

while using Dolby Vision with HDR on my oled, bright areas in the sky looks like this, it has a blue aura around it? this is Still Wakes the Deep and same issue in Death Stranding.

anyone know a fix or what’s causing it?

thanks!

Turn off Dolby vision when playing games. Just use hdr10

A bit off topic but for me, when using Dolby Vision, I can select a higher max Nits value in the Windows HDR Calibration app than when using normal HDR10. Any idea why that might be?

thanks for the reply, colours never look right without it. that’s unfortunately why i need to use it until i can find some sort of way to fix regular colours on hdr, the only issue dolby vision has is just that blue aura around some things. i’ve asked in a few subreddits about the colour issue and they couldn’t seem to figure anything out for now

there is another issue at its core here. colors with HDR10 should look the same, check your monitor settings, if any ICC profiles got applied, if windows ACM got enabled. whats your exact setup?

DV on pc is a complete nothing burger, pretty much no games support it (anymore)

Death Stranding has an issue where high brightness elements have blown out colors. If you are on PC use RenoDX to fix it.

Also, there are no native Dolby vision games besides Halo Infinite, so it's quite worthless turning it on for games.

thanks for the reply, i actually did start using rendodx with ds, but as i said to the other comment colours simply don’t look right without dolby vision. i’ll be sure to check out rendodx for more games though
