Shadow of the Templars is one of the greatest games ever made, you need to play this guys if you haven't it is just pure magic. Fascinating story and gameplay, so clever.
I am enjoying the hell out of watching this livestream after the fact. Wish I could have made it! This topic is one I am most passionate about. I think you kinda know Markus 😉 I used to go to war with a certain creator, debunking his HDR has no standards lies. Thank you so much for continuing to spread values information/knowledge. I find very few people anymore, to have conversations such as the ones in this video… it’s a shame too. This community and scene used to be booming and very close nit. Wish things were that way again. Take it easy Markus! Stay safe down there in the land down under!!! Accuracy and calibrated displays FTW!!!! 🙌 Once you understand it, there is no going back, and it becomes critical/necessity. What’s most amazing, is how close many of these displays can get OTTB. A simple 2pt can fix most of the issues on these flagships.
30fps on crt.. it is not flickering at that 30hz rate or any jerkier than displays now. (yes, crt at 60hz is more flickering than current displays but point is how 30fps material is displayed) That 30fps is created within 60hz "container", interlaced, odd lines first, then even lines.. so update is 60hz, end result is 30fps/hz (when displaying 30fps materia)l. Because actual image is displayed in two parts (a,b) it acts like motion blur and is less jerkier than whole image at once 30fps/hz. 30fps crt (60hz) sequence: 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b.... 30fps lcd/oled (60hz) sequence 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3...
Sure HDR is Scam, its a Marketing Term ⭐. For max Brightness and correct Colors the GPU Driver and Monitor Hardware are enough. Oled without HDR and correct Blackpoint/Max Brigtness will always look better than nowadays LCD's WITH HDR. But colors and max Brigtness is a personal Preference, for me i calibrated my Alienware QD Oled to DCIp3 and 400nits , 1000 is to bright for me. Srgb has cut to much green tone . HDR is just for selling more old LCDs. Also in Linux u dont get locked out of Monitor Settings with HDR, its a windows problem (intentinal) 😋
Because you watch videos in SDR, of course 1000nits is too bright for you. Whether the setting is lock out is decided by monitor, not OS. By the way, I use Arch.
HDR is about brightness RANGE. 1000 nits in SDR is blindingly bright because it makes everything bright, including stuff that should be dark. You are still working with a narrow static range of color and brightness. However HDR content with HDR screen makes full use of your screens capabilities when approriate and needed. In a well mastered HDR movie the average display brightness may still be about 200 nits, just like SDR with a well calibrated TV for a dark room watching, but certain highlights like a sun glittering on the surface of water or a spotlight in a night the brightness can peak at 1000 nits in small areas that stand out from the rest of the image. That is a completely different effect from SDR getting blasted at full brightness to your face. SDR is a like postcard image. Even if the said postcard is picturing a sun, it won't be any brighter than the white T shirt that also happens to be on the picture. White is same white through the same image. But if this were a well mastered HDR video the said sun would be noticeably brighter than the dudes white T shirt, without resorting to clipping and blowing out bright or dark details and so on. The image is closer to light in real life works.
@@MaaZeus However, there is a new issue with HDR, those directors want us to see super dark movies, literally dark as hell, I can't see a thing unless I turn my room into a dark room, after doing that I still barely see what's going on.

Too bad the title doesn’t indicate that this is a podcast-style talk. Glad I clicked

I've never tried interlaced onn my CRT, I don't believe I can, modern GPUs don't support interlace resolutions anymore. Correct me if I'm wrong
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 My bad.. this was about crt tv's.. crt monitors use progressive scan so whole image is drawn in one pass usually.
"Everything is super bright, it starts to lose the contrast", sounds like it is an OLED problem.
Why is there so less HDR contents on TH-cam?
who the f*ck said hdr was a scam -_- is 60fps also a scam? and 120fps is not real i guess

What are you even saying bro. HDR vs SDR is like comparing 120fps to 30fps. Theres a night and day difference.

@@s9209122222Obligatory “I use Arch”. You’re right though. I don’t think the OP stated a single coherent point. Everything is just wrong.
