 they  started rolling  it out in the US but  have pulled the  update. To make it worse from what Ive  read  its 'half baked'..  Dolby vision will only be available  via streaming apps. External Players will  require a firmware update so that the metadata   is proceesed  by the  apps and players and not by the  extreme  1  processor in tvs like mine   xe93

 cheers,

 what a total    cop out by Sony they wouldnt even   respond to the   journalist's  questions on the subject. Many people   have bought this model based on the  fsct that they were told it would suport the  Dolby Vision standard which is being adopted by a lot of  studios. I can see a classaction  lawsuit being taken against them in America over this

I’ve had my Sony 65” oled just under 3 months and now thinking of returning it as this Dolby Vision is a sham and thinking of going over to Samsung

Samsung do not support Dolby Vision. Only LG, so if you change for this reason and want to stay in Korea better look at LG
