That doesn't really help us to feel any better about it, cheekyangus!

Given the length of time involved, maybe it's something significant. Or maybe Gold goes HD or something as maddening as that!

4K HDR Tennis on Eurosport via red button. Is anyone having any colour issues, REC. 2020 colour space doesn't seem right.

I'm not sure if the feed is mapping the colur space correctly. Weirdly it actually look best when the TV is set to DCI colour space.

You need to meditate more and perhaps do a bit of yoga.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2019)

It has looked very orange - but oddly the same comment was made about the non-HDR feed on Sky.

So might not actually be a HDR issue.

Sounds fair and reasonable to me.

I feel there's still a long way to go before they get HLG spot on. Especially with live broadcasts.

I tend to stick to HD mostly. Or I just set the TV colour settings to rec. 709 or even DCI. That way you still get the 4K clarity, it does seem to work out ok.

HLG(especially live broadcasts) is still a long way from the quality you can get from a 4K(HDR) movie through an UHD player.

Then its pointless to post something that you cannot reveal, all this does is add to the speculation of what might be, totally pointless imo.

How is it pointless MM? as he has done it for years and barely anybody moans as speculation is part and parcel of this thread.

He has been banned from revealing it for a reason.

Sorry that wasn't my intention.

I was trying to say it might be very soon and the far off end date was simply designed to make it difficult to speculate accurately.

@Old Boy - The DNP is NOT about Disney or any new Shopping or UHD Channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2019)

MB: Your source is playing games with you and I wish he would stop. I've had these DNP "orders" in the past.

You can post what you want and if your source fears this may somehow identify him by disclosing such sensitive information, then he is deluded, because any such info will already be known by dozens of other people other than himself.

If you can't say what the info is, then better to say nothing. I'm still very grateful for info you posted here years ago about a broadband speed upgrade. I got the upgrade six months early, thanks to your post, so your efforts are really appreciated. The ****** wasting your time, is another matter entirely.
