Reply to comment by Particular-Fly-3643 in The first season of Game of Thrones:House of Dragon has ended. What is your opinion about it? by mrnicegy26

If you ever do a rewatch I highly encourage you to source some non-HDR 4k rips online, I pay for HBO max but couldnt find a setting to turn off HDR via the app; piracy once again providing the superior product. Just turning HDR off on the tv doesent help, the SDR is mastered differently.

To be honest I was looking for those comments pre-7, around the time I switched, found some people praising the SDR and didnt think of it much afterward.

Maybe the HDR looks better on the newer OLED sets, better contrast and more nits? I'll be a few years out on that one since I'm pretty happy with the x900 still.

Idk what streamer you use, but for me I’d just set Apple TV to SDR and turn off match content so it should source the SDR file. I do think, like all things, it probably looks best on an OLED. But the 900h is a damn good tv, and things look great on it. Very much an issue on the shows end. My hope is OLED technology will be cheaper in a few years, I don’t think I’ll be upgrading until it does or if my tv outright breaks. .
