  • I am far from an expert, but basically HD10 is a base layer, it ecodes and thus sends HDR data “once” per whole video.
    Formats like HD10+ and DV are dynamic, they send HDR (brightness) information per scene/frame over an extra transport layer.
    And those layers can be sent at the same time for the tv to use which one it prioritizes.

    From the info above it seems the patent is about the way both “streams” of the HDR formatted metadata are combined and transferred over the internet to the display device.

    If this is the case, Disney might do some brainstorming on what is cheaper in the long run: Offer both HD10+ and Dolby Vision which is not a cheap license in itself, on top of which comes the license fee from the patent they infringe on … if they can’t find a workaround.
    Or, go with a single HDR standard, in which case I can see them drop DV support altogether to save on (expensive DV) license fees.

    Regardless of this, I do not think the case is a positive development.





  • First there’ll be a media campaign with ppl shouting “let him finish”. Get his magats riled up against all who oppose a 3rd term.

    The elections most likely will have highly suspicious numbers, but that will be covered up or ignored happily.

    And when he slithers into his 3rd term his regime is from then on glued to the desk… I still suspect the term king will be used, perhaps they think that gives him the 3rd term loophole :-)

    Trump will use his “ICE” army to terrorize anyone against his regime untill he is sure the Insurrection act will stick and he can let the national guard start shooting with live ammo…


  • I’ve said it before, the damage has been done, the current status quo will not go away.

    Flip the house, flip everything, at best the regime will ignore it all …

    In the short term there will be no repercussions for the regime to go on unhindered. Heck they already mostly ignore congress as it is right now.

    2028 will not bring a peaceful transition, ALL those in power now can’t afford to let it go, not only will it ruin their plans if they do, it will also bring possible criminal investigations into their self enrichment and other damaging actions. There can not be a single scapegoat so the pact will stay close to protect the whole.

    The only ones to bring this all to a sudden halt with the least victims and uproar is the army, and then the whining starts:
    “I was just following orders”.

    If by a miracle the regime does fall unexpectedly I expect a carte blanche pardon for those in control now.


  • The problem is complex:
    ICE has all the intel to know where they want to show up. Hard to direct masses if you have no prior knowlege where, and one can bet on ICE escalating into shooting at protesters (they’re not national guard nor army but trump’s personal armed forces and can do what they want basically).
    Everyone of them counts and is sure of his orders being above any law because trump says so. A good chunk of the police and judiciary system also is fully under trump’s thumb so the only ones to be prosecuted will be the protesters.

    But on top of it all, at least half the country, on both sides, thinks its best to let trump have his hissyfit of a regime and “all will be fixed when the midterms come” … well the year of the midterms is here and things are only heating up more … soon it will be “we’ll hold out 'till 2028 or when trump dies and there will be peaceful elections to calm the country”…

    The majority is so brainwashed about internal workings of the USA as told in school they can’t see it has turned into a full on fascist country now, with a dictator on top, including the razzia’s like the Nazi’s used to do in WW2 …it is all already here!
    This IS what Anne Frank was hiding from on that attic!

    And it will NOT go away peacefully. Not now, not at the midterms and not in 2028, not even upon trump’s death.

    Not just trump but every single person currently working for the trump regime will try to avoid the regime’s collapse because it will not bring good things…

    “I was only following orders” was not a valid excuse in 1946, nor will it be if the regime falls so those involved will forcefully keep it on course.

    The time will come where membership lists of the democratic party will be confiscated and those on it will be targeted for punishment.





  • It’s more a situation of why not both, throwing around as much chaos as he can, like he has always done, is his best strategy to keep all of his other dealings, past and present, out of the public scrutiny and meanwhile all of his plans sail through. His regime already has broken “the US” in an irrepairable manner, whenever he falls away there will not be an easy path to just revert to how things were.

    Small example being from his appointment on a US president can do and say whatever he wants, no matter how horrid or self-enriching, and to fix this a decade of making new legislation is needed, if the parties involved ever find common ground on that again… Think about how many possible elections can go by in between …

    It’s not even just one thing, everything in the US is broken for multiple years … from protections against pollution of public drinking water to being able to appoint totally incompetent people as long as they pay for the position…
