That would suck. So it works fine on the c9?

I don't see this one as that big an issue. If you're playing the 120hz mode, you probably don't care so much about the visual fidelity of what you're seeing. Now for 60fps mode on the other hand, that's where it will matter more to me.

Yeah as LG C9 has the full 48Gbps. Although i suppose we won't know for sure until we see a picture of this screen on an LG C9.

guessing the C9 doesn’t either? doesn’t even mention dolby vision @ 60 for me (Series X with a C9)
Damn, not as conclusive as I hoped!
Cheers haha

I'm pretty sure DolbyVision is specifically for movies, not video games.

it was announced that games would get support too and i believe xbox insiders that are on alpha testing ring can use it

DV pushed a lot more data than HDR, CX is capped at 40gbps i think

It is pointless to state this about Dolby Vision being 12bit which needs 48Gbps when the displays are 10bit panels. The "limit" is the max of what 40Gbps is supposed to do which is 4k@120hz 444 HDR 10bit

maybe this will explain why dolby vision isn’t available at 120fps, i’m also guessing OP is an xbox insider.

“
Series X/S gamers with compatible TVs have noticed that HDR games have started playing in Dolby Vision following the latest software update. The feature is currently available to a few Alpha Ring users, members of Xbox’s ‘invite only’ preview club, and only works with 4:2:2 60Hz game content.
In a statement to Forbes, Microsoft said: “As we announced last year, we're excited to be bringing Dolby Vision support for gaming to our new Xbox consoles in 2021. The feature is currently in testing, and we’ll have more to announce on general availability timing and functionality soon."
While many had previously assumed that Dolby Vision HDR would only feature on titles that use the format in their game engines, players are claiming all HDR games are now being shown in the format. Users are claiming the brightness, black levels, and colour saturation of HDR games now appear more refined compared to playing in HDR10. “

It does support it. You just need to uncheck AMD Free sync Premium. VRR will still work but you will be able to have Dolby Vision 120 Hz.

DV at 120hz is simply not supported at this time. Its not a bandwith issue, the ps5 outputs 4K hdr 120hz at 422 chroma 12 bit.
You would be able to do DV at 12bit 422

Vision is mastered in 12 bit but 12 bit is not required to use it.

It works for me, as it should.

It's not because of 40 Gbps ports, stop spreading that misinformation. Xbox series x and PlayStation 5 both don't support 48 Gbps, they're capped at 40 Gbps.

I think so what? It has VRR standard for 2.1 along with the Series S/X...it doesn't need to. The main device that gets the most benefit with Freesync is AMD cards on PC with displays that are Freesync Premium capable.

Great you also have VRR if you have a C9 so still not missing out.

I know Dolby Vision is in a lot of things but to really take full advantage of it doesn't it require a 12bit panel which nobody even makes right now? I understand having the actual hardware in your display is better than the software version a lot of companies implemented last year but still I think it's a bit overblown, HDR10 is probably good enough for most people and from what I hear OLED doesn't get bright enough for true HDR10.
Do you have the xbox series x in PC mode or game mode on your TV settings? (From the home dashboard of your tv and tap settings on the gear icon)
On PC mode the sampling method is 4:4:4 so there is not enough bandwidth for anything else. On game mode it is at 4:2:2.
Just a guess

Dolby Vision is barely any better than HDR10? hahaha ok.
Dolby Vision is the gold standard of HDR. basic HDR sucks in comparison.
