Good to have confirmation that PC isn't excluded from DV on MS games.
EDIT:
Okay, just found the thread about the exclusivity deal being BS anyways.

Ive definitely played ME Andromeda in Dolby Vision on PC, back in like 2017 or 2018.
If hes in the timeline where Infinite didnt get delayed he should tell us how it went.Time traveler when he realizes he fucked up and posted in the wrong timeline
I'm in the middle of renovating the ground floor of my home, fitting in-ceiling speakers for that sweet Atmos. God damn, I cant wait to test it out with Halo's soundscape.
I don't know how Dolby Vision currently works in the sense of if Xbox just uses Dolby vision instead of HDR 10 in general or if the games Iam playing currently support it, but I have noticed a big difference from HDR when it pops on…..if you have an LG make sure you change your setting as I played off game mode for a couple days before I realized what was happening
... and they don't work properly on new GPU's or at least at common output settings. Need for Speed Heat for example is unplayable in HDR on PC cause it tries to engage Dolby Vision, fails and outputs purple garbled mess instead.
EA does not give a shit about any of that tho.
I hope if/when new wave of DV games comes out Windows 10/GPU drivers or whatever will be actually ready for it.
Yeah, I've had mixed successes with it - black screens I can only recover by hard booting my PC being one.
Managed to get it to work easily by forcing 8bit RGB. Weird. Not a great solution either
What are your thoughts on DV in games when it comes to those native implementations in EA games? Worth bothering trying to make it work or it's whatever? I managed to briefly play a bit of ME: Andromeda on GTX 970 in DoVi and was in whatever camp... after rebooting PC for the 5th time (😂)
It looked a bit different to me, but i would not say it looked better than HDR10.
I've not exerted lots of effort into DV on PC-being proprietary it's somewhat of a black box.
It seemed to use a much longer tone map- maybe all the way to 10k nits.
I need to have a bit more of a play with it now I've figured out how to make it display semi reliably . I do have some theories about how it is displayed that I want to test.
It will actually be much easier to dig into the Xbox's output I suspect
I remember you from the Andromeda - Dolby Vision in Windows conversation. I managed to beat the game last week (110 hours), 100% of that time was using Dolby Vision.
But yeah, had to restart Windows 3-4 times during all that. This should be fixed on PC...its very seamless in console, come on Microsoft.
Hopefully new wave of games has a more robust DV implementation on PC. So at least comparing the two would not be a pain :D
Dolby does not even advertise those EA games so they clearly were experimental and half baked. Does not make it right on EA to leave them in such state without reliable fallback to HDR10 of course...😡
Guess you still enjoyed it so that's good!( played around 100hrs of Andromeda myself few years ago... in SDR😭 )
Atmos is fantastic, every true Atmos game has sounded incredible for me with Gears 5 being the standout. So excited for this.
I did this a couple of years ago in my basement. It was well worth it!
They all use Nv's HDR API AFAIR and don't work that will in latest versions of Windows 10.
