Will take a look tonight. Is the audio/video quality up to the standard of See and The Morning Show, Cas?
Thanks for that. Yeah, I've noticed the same problem even on Netflix on my ATV, too. I can't do Dolby Vision on my projector, but it normally comes up with 'Dolby Vision' as a tag on the content if it's HDR. Right now it's denoting it as 'Ultra HD 4K' instead. However, when I play the content it does indeed provoke my projector to switch to HDR, so who knows what's going on. Baffling.Yes and no. It's all largely set in a single house, so there's isn't as much eye candy as in See, and it's also quite low key, so there isn't the glitz of The Morning Show.
And, besides, Apple still haven't fixed the Dolby Vision problems they appear to be having atm.
But it still looks impressive.
It sounds like you have the ATV set up to display HDR all the time. You need to make sure you have set up the ATV correctly, it is counter-intuitive. When you connect if it asks to try HDR, select no. If you have said yes in the past to that go into settings and select 4K SDR 50Hz. Then go to Content Match and select both to yes. By doing this the ATV will automatically select the correct dynamic range for the content and will not be stuck in HDR all the time, looking odd and also giving you the wrong information. Once set up correctly it will give you the correct menu information and also auto-switch between SDR and HDR10 content, which your projector is capable of receiving and displaying.Thanks for that.

I was on the beta programme for the last set of updates. It basically broke Airplay for me so I was glad when the final update came and I pulled myself out of the programme.I am on the ATV beta program, which is probably the culprit, since new versions of the beta automatically download without notification.
Your review sounds about as confused as Shayamlan could hope for. His outstanding one hit wonder Sixth Sense has carried him further than most could dream of; with everything since being tagged by it in a forgiving tone and/or somewhat wishful wonder for more of the same quality. The laded knowledge that you're expected to be hauling along and henceforth seeing connections, whether or not they exist, to his work is handy for Shayamalan to appear to have added weight in an almost get-out-of-jail-free sixth sense play out for the viewer.
I'll probably give it a whirl but, as your own sixth sense no doubt informs, I never swallowed the post Sixth Sense wonderment with his works.
Lady in the Water or Godzilla KOM lol.Unbreakable, The Village and Signs were also good, and – even though this is the least popular opinion on planet Earth – *winces* I actually liked Lady In The Water.
It is decent but not really in the camp everything since seems to be relying on - as the 'big' reveal is brick-like.Unbreakable,
That sounds pretty bad when you consider how many non Atmos tracks sounds great when upmixed.Looks like Mr Shyamalan is executive producer on just one episode, while directing two. But as stated in the review he is not responsible for the writing or directing for the most part. Honestly, my take here is they just needed a big name to lend to this to give it some weight. Not complaining as enjoying it so far. The script, performances and direction are all superb. I just think the way Apple has represented this as an M Night Shyamalan creation is a stretch.
Another small observation is the Atmos audio track sounds like an upscale (a 5.1 mix algorithmically upmixed to additionally use the height speakers), as effects definitely meant to come from above don’t, and effects that have no height are often mistakenly panned skyward. It’s all very ‘guessy’. This is usually a sign it was not originally mixed in Atmos. IMDB tech specs confirm 5.1, so it’s likely this is something Apple did so it could slap an Atmos badge on it.
Well, I wouldn’t call it bad actually, Coulson. More, you can hear it if you’re looking for it. There are a few telltale moments. More just that Apple has cheated a little here in my view.That sounds pretty bad when you consider how many non Atmos tracks sounds great when upmixed.
That reminds me of the Deepwater Horizon Atmos mix. An absolutely stonking mix, but on one or two occasions, in the midst of the mayhem, I heard sounds that reminded me of the artificiality of the sound track.Well, I wouldn’t call it bad actually, Coulson.

Polished first 3 episodes last night...
Love it....
Finally Night shmalammamama creates TV for adult viewing
Still pretty good viewingHis not the writer nor creator of this show, just the producer and directed 1 episode so Apple can have a big name attached to each of their projects.
2 episodes, no? I thought he did episode one, then the flashback ep.His not the writer nor creator of this show, just the producer and directed 1 episode so Apple can have a big name attached to each of their projects.
