    Great video but just a precision: the Diva doesn’t do the tone mapping. I have a Vertex 2 with a similar setup. Their job is to « trick » the source telling that the display is Dolby Vision compatible with the technical informations you entered. The Dolby Vision tone mapping is done by the source (4K blu-ray, Apple TV 4K, etc.).
    The result is the same but it’s an important distinction.

    • @hatoraidcowboy
      @hatoraidcowboy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @Yanick Doyon. Thanks for watching! I realize I may have explained it wrong in the video…….The main difference between full DV and LLDV is the source player will apply the tone mapping for LLDV, (4K Blu Ray or Apple TV) where full DV will happen on the actual TV if supported. But for a projector setup, without a device like the Diva or Vertex 2 like you have, the source player has no way of receiving and sending DV to the projector so that’s why I said the Diva “handles” the tone mapping. Sorry if it was confusing.

      @yand99 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No problem! I wish I had that video when I started with my Vertex 1. I was suprised that there was nothing detailed like your video about this. I also like the fact that it automatically switches my JVC modes depending of the content when plugged with the RS232 cable.

The picture is very nice too. I use MarantZ SR 5014 for surround and Nvidia Shield for streaming. It is capable of upscaling video too.

    Great video, thanks for such a detailed explanation! I have an Epson 6050UB which I think is comparable to your projector in terms of features. Does yours have an HDR slider to adjust the level like mine and if so--I imagine the Diva eliminates the need to keep moving the slider around from scene to scene. Let me know if that's the case and if you just keep it on one level now regardless of content?

    • @hatoraidcowboy

      @ Ian Koff Thank you! Yea the 6050UB is very similar to the 5040…I think the 6050 has better contrast ratio and supports 12 bit color.
      Mine does have the HDR slider but I never use that with the Diva. I use the Diva to change HDR signals. The LLDV gets tone mapped on your player and then gets sent back in an HDR 10 container to your projector so the signal still gets tone mapped before it gets to your projector.

      To answer your question, the Diva supports Dolby Vision, HDR 10+, and HDR 10. Since HDR 10+ and DV are dynamic, then yes, as long as your receiver and/or tv supports Dolby Vision. This exactly what LLDV does. It takes the Dolby Vision meta data and tone maps it into LLDV and sends it back to your display in an HDR 10 container.

      Yes you can get Dolby Vision with the Diva or the Vrroom. I would suggest plugging the Diva or Vroom directly into your Z9F(Hdmi w/earc) and then plug all your main components into the Diva or Vrroom to get the Dolby Vision. And then use the audio out on the Diva or Vrroom to one of your hdmi inputs on your receiver for your sound. You wont have to switch the input on your receiver as the Diva and Vrroom is also a switcher.
      You can switch inputs on the Diva or Vroom with the web interface(I use my ipad sometimes) or if you have a Logitech universal remote that would be best for seamless switching with Activities. Sweet TV you got there!!!

I have been looking at both of these for quite a while now and was almost decided on the Diva but I contacted HDcustomer support and was told that the vertex 2 was all I needed. That was before I read a reviewer state that it did not have auto switching. After asking you I researched again and discovered this, Autoswitch any Source
      Supports TMDS/pixel clock switching, capable of auto-switching sources that keep sending 5V in standby mode. I assume this is what we are talking about. Forgive my lack of knowledge but at 76 it's getting hard to keep up with it all. @@hatoraidcowboy

      No need to apologize. 😃 I’m 99% certain the Vertex2 will autoswitch. It’s almost the same product as the Diva.
      I just checked the technical specs for the Vertex2 and it supports autoswitching.

      hi, hope all is well. If you would answer a couple more questions, Can I plug the vertex into a smart plug so I can turn it off when not in use or does it have to stay pluged in all the time. Also once I have it all set up can I disconnect the ethernet cable until such time I may need to update something or change some settings? thanks again for your time.@@hatoraidcowboy

    Is this worth it if your projector only does 13Gbps? I have a Sony VW285es projector. It especially doesn't do well at 60hz content and does forces it 8bit. Does this device give the flexibility to force content to run at 24fps? If so then at 24 it can do 10bit.

      The Diva just passes along content but you can set parameters for scaling based off the incoming signal to the Diva. You still should be able to get Dolby Vision, albeit in a lower color bit color. But typically most projectors should have no problem with 24fps @ 10 bit.

      It’s basically dynamic tone mapping, the projector is just not doing it. Dolby Vision tone mapping is done on the display, LLDV is done on the device/player. So its being tone mapped before it gets to the projector and its being sent in a format that the projector can interpret and display

      So it looks like your Soundbar has Earc, but your TV doesnt. Which makes me wonder what HDMI version your tv is using.
      However the Diva can still work. You would have to connect your tv to the Soundbar’s HDMI IN, and then connect the Diva to one of your Soundbar’s HDMI ports. Then just connect your components to the Diva’s HDMI ports. The Diva will handle the HDMI switching AND audio and you’ll still get Atmos & DTS:X.
      You only need arc or eArc on your tv if you are connecting components directly to the hdmi ports on your tv and then trying to send the audio back to your receiver or soundbar.

      Its plug n play so it wont make changes to your C4 configuration. And the HDFury doesnt make your projector use more light output. The LLDV tone mapping will be done on the player/streaming device. The only way your projector will use more light is if you manually switch to a profile that uses more light, or you increase the brightness manually.
