  • That’s kind of what I’m getting at. Once you hit a certain size, it only makes sense to have a certain resolution. I know jumping from 65" to 85" made all my Plex content “blurry” bc it wasn’t good enough quality/bitrate. Reripping BD and 4K BD used h.265 and 12-15GB/hr per UHD file was way better!

    Idk what 8K looks like, but for those new 98"+ displays, I wouldn’t go any bigger unless 8K. 42-50" Max FHD, I would say 85" Max UHD. You can’t really sit any further in a LR, so being that close I’d want it that way. Plus, it’d require the faster refresh rate to not look so bad moving over that much surface area.

    I’m just excited for PeLED or PeNC (Perovskite LED / Nano Crystal). 😎🤯 sorry, off topic…


  • To add… It would only matter in large format displays anyway. Pixel density is only going to matter so much.

    I remember when Sharp put out their Aquos 70" FHD TV and I thought, “eww, so grainy”! But now I’ve got a 85" UHD with the same density as a ~42" FHD which helps with clarity since my viewing distance hadn’t really changed (~10ft).

    FPS is great and all, but not when most content is 24fps-60fps. 120 is an awesome sweet spot for 24fps content since its 5hz per frame.

    IMO UHD still has room for growth and adoption before another tech hits. Not to mention the financial strains everyone’s in due to the fucking billionaire squeeze… And they wonder why people are tight on money?! Fucking idiots!









  • I don’t follow this stuff much, but I’ll tell you one thing:

    There’s a huge void following his arrest and untimely death, so who’s there picking up where he left off? Like the Sinaloa cartel situation. Now that tech has gotten better with encryption and the scapegoat is gone, how much worse do you think it is now than before?

    Personally, IMO there are waaay more tech magnates with vastly disposable income. You can put the puzzle pieces together.
