This comes from more than just a quick play, perhaps poor choice of words on my part. I spent a few weeks running through some tests I had to see the outcome, comparing it with my Tivo. I was genuinely interested in switching to Sky but felt slightly underwhelmed, the same way i would if someone brought a Sonos system to my house and started playing music wirelessly.....when I already have this via several of Raspery Pis and several Class-D amps. My main point is that Sky Q isn't as far ahead that a new PVR couldn't at least match it and VM customers can at least expect this will be the case with the new Tivo. However my own opinion is that a TiVO powered VM box is unlikely to be up to the job both when it's released and, due to Sky's apparent frequency of updating Sky Q, in the future. |

LG have gone further than Samsung, demonstrating HLG on their "newest OLED TVs". Nonetheless I am still not putting any big bets on it! ---------- Post added at 13:30 ---------- Previous post was at 13:27 ---------- Quote:

I think for you, regardless of HDR, any of those OLED tvs are far, far better than any LCD tv on the market today. So, perhaps you might lose a bit of extra colour if it doesn't turn out to be compatible, but really, they're the best tvs around. If I had one of those, I wouldn't be too fussed with HDR. Do you like it?:) BTW, Samsung also demonstrated HLG on a specially modded 2016 tv. That was when they were asked if they were going to upgrade all their tvs, only for the questioner to be met with a wall of silence. |

The closest I have ever seen to the perfect TV! Hard to fault. Even SDR looks HDR-like, with those inky blacks :)
Very much recommended! |
Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
I'm hoping the price of the current oled models will come down a lot when the new ones come out, so I will consider then.
I do need a new tv for the living room and was looking at a panasonic, but for the reasons already stated I will wait until next year and see what the manufacturers release. |

Re: Virgin Media V6 - Powered by TiVo(new STB)
The fact that VM are talking about V6 in relation to TV Anywhere would suggest it's about to launch otherwise why bother mentioning it?
