Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
I asked this question in another thread but didn't receive a reply and I have to admit I'm only asking out of curiosity rather than any desire to switch equipment.
Can anyone who has a top tier Netflix subscription, a V6 box and compatible TV tell me if Netflix's 4K content on the V6 also displays with Dolby Vision or is it just 4K resolution on its own?

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Just logged into my Netflix account and noticed all the extra profiles have disappeared including the the default kids one. I've had to create new ones but any history on them has gone.
Has this happened to any one else? The account holder profile was unaffected.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Any finding that Amazon Prime is not switching to HDR for The Grand Tour?

On my LG TV's webOS app it doesn't switch on HDR if I view it from my watchlist,
but it does if I view it from the separate 4K section.

I have a 4K HDR ready TV and the pq on amazon for 4K is terrible, very dark, they've had loads of complaints about it, I don't have any issues when viewing Netflix or any YouTube 4K content.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
It has been like that on all my devices - but today it will not switch to HDR for any HDR programme. All was good on Thursday.

Sounds to me like a temporary glitch. I certainly hope so.

I've not experienced that, out of interest what are you using to play Amazon 4K content?
On my TV the webOS app is perfect for 4K HDR content from Amazon,
and my Fire TV box also plays their 4K content perfectly without being very dark, colour seems a bit washed out from the Fire TV in comparison to the LG app but that's understandable as its displaying 4K without HDR.

Unless they also up the framerate from 25 fps to 50 fps the increase in resolution wont make much difference to sport on Now TV.

I think VM has some Starz shows as exclusive on-demand doesn't it?

I know they have Ash v Evil Dead, but I thought that was a one-off deal.
