Re: [Avid-L2] Fw: LG webOS TV OLED55B6P will Dolby Vision automatically happen with Proper HDR signal over HDMI?

 

One other thing I picked up at the seminar is the hardware tunneling with the Kona 4 card with Cortex software only does the tunneling in HD.  In googling around it seemed that at most the cards will do 2K in dual link or single link.  I think in quad link there was some UHD output possible.  So not sure where that leaves HDMI tunneling with Resolve.  Perhaps I need to set the timeline to HD and adjust the video monitoring to reflect HD hardware?

Ironic that HDR got tied to 4K to sell TVs and now cards and eCMUs can only handle HD material in the target display mode.

Here's the manual.  It seems to state it works with an eCMU or with the internal software depending on a check box to enable an eCMU.  It says it but I don't know whether it's true.  I don't understand why the manual would say it if it doesn't work.  Not working correctly is another issue.  It seems from asking others with TLC home monitors that they do see the Dolby Vision Logo pop up when Dolby Vision content is fed to the monitor.  Here's the manual section:

0. Dolby VisionTM

   DaVinci Resolve 15 includes a GPU-accelerated software version of the Dolby Vision CMU (Content Mapping Unit) for doing Dolby Vision grading and finishing workflows right in either the free version of DaVinci Resolve or in DaVinci Resolve Studio. This is enabled and set up in the Color Management panel of the Project Settings with the Enable Dolby Vision checkbox.

   Dolby Vision settings in the Color Management panel of the Project Settings

   There are five controls available:

   • ‚  Enable Dolby Vision: Turns Dolby Vision on and off. When on, this checkbox enables the Dolby Vision palette in the Color page.

   • ‚  Dolby Vision version pop-up: Lets you choose which version of the Dolby Vision algorithms to use. Options at the time of this writing include 2.9 and 4.0.

   • ‚  Master Display pop-up: Lets you choose the nit level and gamut of the master HDR display you're grading on.

   • ‚  Use External CMU: A checkbox lets you choose whether to use the built-in software CMU or a hardware CMU that you have connected to your DaVinci Resolve workstation.

NOTE: Dolby Vision controls are available to all DaVinci Resolve users for monitoring and automatically generating Dolby Vision metadata for creating other HDR and SDR deliverables from the HDR grade you've made. However, if you want to be able to make manual trims on top of this automatic analysis, you must email dolbyvisionmastering@... for more information on obtaining a license.
