Colors displaying in Dolby vision alpha skip ahead

Hi

The Dolby Vision update has not be enabled yet (from my understanding) in the Skip Ahead build, but will be shortly.

Hello!! I'm in the alpha skip ahead. With the last build the problem is fixed. Now it's multichannel in the dashboard, when you load an atmos game the display will change in atmos. Same for netflix.

This is fantasic news! Thanks. So just to be clear it seems that Microsoft solved it? Or did Dolby Access get an alpha update?

It is still in test at this point in time. It may come out with the fall update, which has no release date yet.

In other words, as a simple user with xbox one x and compatible tv, I can't be using Dolby Vision until update?

ps Fall update - before december, correct?

If you're not in the alpha or alpha skip ahead preview rings in the xbox insider program you will have to wait, yes.

According to the Latest Alpha skip ahead Insider release notes this is still an issue the engineers are tracking and working on.

Also, I wouldn't be overly concerned about Dolby Vision, the vast majority of people cant tell the difference between Dolby Vision and HDR10, plus there isn't a TV on the planet that can actually display the full Dolby Vision video standard as Dolby Vision was made for future TVs (like 5 to 10 years in the future)

This article explains it fully.

But this is an excerpt from the article.

"For the moment, there are no TVs you can buy that are capable of displaying 10,000 nits of brightness or the 68 billion colors that Dolby Vision provides. Even the brightest TVs on the market tend to max out at 3,000 nits of brightness, and not even LG’s newest 8K OLED TV offers better than 10-bit color support"

So again, nothing to worry about as long as your TV can display an HDR signal, then it doesn't matter if its HDR 10 or Dolby Vision, it'll still look great.
