if HDR 10+ is getting UHD bluray approval, does that mean we may see separate versions of the same movie?
Depends who Disney throws down with to be fair, as all their sub companies including 20th Century Fox would follow suit.If more movie studios join Dolby Vision will basically be dead.
The base layer would still be HDR10 much like discs with DV support that still have to have the HDR10 base layer. Just think of it like languages or soundstage support all on one disc. No need for separate versions .
At this rate though and ad libbing from Jaws , " We are going to need a bigger disc space " for all these different formats .
Since Fox will only be using HDR10+ (unless Disney have other ideas) then at the moment only Warners can answer that question as they currently produce discs with Dolby Vision and have announced support for HDR10+ as well.So the same UHD blu-ray disc will support hdr10+ and dolby vision?
HDR 10 is a given of course

But now we have a format war it seems once again with DV and HDR10+ much like BD and HD DVD back in the day .
DV vs HDR10+ is nothing like BD vs HD-DVD. A better analogy is DTS-MA vs Dolby TrueHD.
DV and HDR10+ are usually enhancement layers above HDR10. Everyone supports HDR10.
DTS-MA and Dolby TrueHD are lossless audio options that live alongside Dolby Digital. Everyone supports Dolby Digital.
If you have a TV & player that supports HDR10 very well (tone map wise) then you can pretty much ignore Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Don't get me wrong dynamic HDR meta-data is nice, but think of it as sugar-on-the-top; it is NOT a must.
So we have the static metadata in HDR10 that I've not found fault with TBH.
While thats true. if DV HDR10+ is equiv, then one will win out to save costs or because of no interest. It really be interesting if someone came up with a DV to HDR10+ converter. That way lic. free on the TV and less locked down controls.That's not a bad analogy but the problem is that all AV Receivers support both Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, so it doesn't matter which sound format the disc uses. However no TV currently supports both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, which means you can't enjoy both formats even though the Panasonic UB820 player will play them.
The base layer would still be HDR10 much like discs with DV support that still have to have the HDR10 base layer. Just think of it like languages or soundstage support all on one disc. No need for separate versions .
Yes - but the HDR10 base layer is of no interest - that's a downgrade.
The question is can a UHD have BOTH DV and HDR10+ metadata on it for a full dynamic HDR experience in both HDR10+ compatible players as well as DV compatible players. All I ever see is people painting the rosey picture of you can always just watch the base layer. We know - that is not the point
