What's your go to video player to watch 4k hdr content on hdr screens? - eviltoast

I’ve been using mpc with madvr for years, and the upscaling setting for stuff that isn’t 4k.

      There is a notice on this wiki that contains some comparisons: https://thewiki.moe/guides/playback/

      I’m sure you can find some more in-depth explanations but I will just copy/paste a quote I have seen from reddit.

      • uses wrong matrix for RGB conversion (results in wrong colors)
      • uses point upscaling for chroma planes
      • introduces strong banding
      • wrong chroma location (MPEG-1 for everything)
      • Old subtitle renderer that in more Typesetting heavy situation will say fuck you
      • all the other bugs (including some that haven’t been fixed in years) make it equally unsuitable media player.
