Thinking of getting an Apple TV 4K to tide me over until a DV player comes out this year.
DV streaming is garbage. Save your money or buy standard blurays at that point
Did you actually compare to Dolby Vision on disc using something like Oppo 203? ScottyLee (a member here on AVForum) also used to think that streaming quality on Apple TV was great, until he bought an Oppo 203 and a few titles in Dolby Vision. Now he changed his mind completely.No its not. It might be on the Chromecast, it's fine on the ATV.

To me, DV streaming is garbage after seeing what DV on disc is capable of offering. If you watch DV on disc and then quickly swicth to DV streaming while your eyes are still adjusted to the PQ of DV disc you will notice a huge difference. Of course if you are just exposed to streaming DV and that's all you know, by itself, it may look fineChanging the goalposts again eh.
You said streaming was garbage. It's not. Of course a disc version will be better, but there isn't much in it.

The new question is whether the UP970 will get HDR10+ support as well or will the certification process only apply to new devices. See the CES 2018 announcement posted in a separate thread.
LG arranged a repair on mine, I got it back 3 days after it was collected and its now whisper quiet and to date I haven't had any playback issues.After speaking with John Lewis, Ill need to contact LG who will take it over, hopefully they just replace it.

Do you have a source on these dolby comments? Would be interested to read up.
Nm found the Forbes article, I can see this having some bearing on the delays we've been having tbh, ignoring the apple connection-it does talk about external sources connected, I.e the bluray player mayhaps?
The brand which has ultimately held its hands up to the problem is… Dolby. During a meeting with them at the CES today, they admitted that the problem was of their making, and had to do with the way Dolby Vision was implemented over HDMI from external devices
