The roaring engine from Max's infamous Interceptor car during the first few seconds of the film packs serious oomph and power and immediately sets the tone for the auditory spectacle to come. From the gentle breeze that sweeps across the desert terrain during the film's rare quieter moments to the roaring dust storm that completely envelops you, every aspect of the sonic experience has been finely tuned to pull you into its desolate world. The astounding action sequences utilise every speaker in the room to stunning effect. I have added in brackets when supported, all other titles support the standard 5.1 Dolby Digital format.As good as the visuals are on Fury Road's 4K transfer, the audio impresses the most.ДЇrom start to finish, Fury Road will mercilessly assault your aural senses with bass and effects that will give your home theatre setup a real working over. ItвЂ™s worth noting here as well that a few select Dolby Vision titles below also support Dolby Atmos.

Thus I have painstakingly looked through the vast Netflix 4K library and I can confirm that these titles support HDR and Dolby Vision if your TV set supports it.

We also reached out to Netflix on two separate occasions and although we have yet to receive any correspondence back we harbour no ill will against the streaming giant. These last 4 manufacturers are all on board to support the HDR10+ colour format in their 2018 range of TVвЂ™s, which as I mentioned, in theory, opens up moreВ opportunities for Amazon now.ДЄmazons HDR content has been thin on the ground in 2017 and it hasnвЂ™t changed much over those 12 months so maybe being an early adopter of the new HDR10+ colour format in 2018 will be the push the company needs to face off against the undoubtedly superior HDR вЂ“ Dolby Vision supported content streaming service Netflix. With Amazon now publicly adopting the aforementioned HDR10+ colour format it will theoretically allow wider overall support from TV manufacturers, as only LG and a select few Sony TVвЂ™s actually supporting the Dolby Vision colour format, leaving out big names such as Samsung, Philips and Panasonic. However, it is worth noting that Dolby Vision content is still superior given that 12-bit colour allows for a colour range of 4096 compared to HDRs 10-bit colour range of 1024. Dolby Vision already contains dynamic metadata and for companies unwilling to pay DolbyвЂ™s licensing fee to create content in the highest quality available, HDR10+ is the next best thing. This, in turn, means that those HDR settings are adjusted automatically corresponding to the on-screen image, allowing us to get the most of HDR10+ supported content. Simply put dynamic metadata allows for a frame by frame colour adjustments in real-time.

HDR currently contains only static metadata in its video stream, whereas HDR10+ allows for the use of dynamic data. HDR10+В is an improvement over HDR, the improvement comes in the form of dynamic metadata. ItвЂ™s worth noting though that it would help a great deal if Amazons representatives were a little more clued up in the companyвЂ™s grander plans in providing its customers HDR content through Amazon Prime, clarity on what instore is very vague for the streaming service.

It looks as if Amazon isВ now shying away from Dolby Vision content and are instead focusing their attention in supporting the Samsung led HDR10+, this is in all likelihood due to trying to reduce the costs involved in paying the licensing fee for Dolby Vision content.Д«ut then again itвЂ™s not like the mega-company Amazon are short on cash, so although this move seems surprising it does make sense as feedback from our readers suggests that only 1 or 2 seasons of shows are Dolby Vision enabled and if Amazon is paying a license fee for just that, the move makes sense from a cost-effective standpoint. We proceeded byВ reaching out to Amazon regarding more clarification on their support for HDR Dolby Vision content.ДЇollowing a direct quote from the AmazonВ representative вЂњ Please be informed that Dolby Vision replaces anВ HDRВ title on Dolby Vision compatible devices, for Dolby Vision enabled content.вЂќ This would mean then none of their HDR titles are Dolby Vision compatible.

Although I personally own an LG OLED C7 4K Dolby Vision TV set none of these titles carries the Dolby Vision logo when watching, I also checked using my Apple TV 4K to rule out an app problem, but I still had the HDR logo.
