I would still hope there is this mode to always enable 120hz without vrr.
lg oleds have best proper gamma at 120hz and lowest lag. So locked 120hz output would be beneficial for 30 and 60fps locked games.

Awesome!!
And now I need a new TV

Boring? I was there from the start with gsync, I’ve never been able to go back. Never tried VRR but if it’s like gsync it’ll be a game-changer for many games that can’t hold the framerate stable. On PC I literally never see framedrops unless the framerate completely freeze, I see the fps counter drop but can’t see the fps stutter.

Very welcome feature, crazy that people tried to downplay it.

Looking forward to being able to play The Smurfs: Mission Vileaf on my PS5 without that horrid jerky framerate it currently has due to lacklustre optimisation by the developers! And, yes, VRR should never be a band-aid for lazy developers but if it makes an unplayable game playable then I'll take it!

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Yeah it's real bizarre.
For some reason many users on this forum are under the impression that vrr means that the developers are not optimizing the game, which makes little sense.

John from DF even downplayed it the other day.
IIRC he only felt it was absolutely necessary for Elden Ring.
Outside of one area (Ordina, Liturgical Town), I didn't feel like ER requiring any performance improvements on PS5 during my playthrough to platinum. Is it because I played the whole game offline?
You click on thread with vrr in title and yet you claim to hate hear about vrr?

Is Dolby Vision that much of a game changer? How much better is it really?
I have Dolby Vision on my TV and on my Series X but never enabled it on my HDMI input on my TV because it's separate to VRR which I can only have one or the other.

I don't actually blame you. I haven't ever seriously used it anyway, I just follow others on there. I respect some of his vision with SpaceX and Tesla, but his political views are out there and somewhat dangerous. At least to those that enjoy the peace and stability that has been offered by the constitution for all these years. Although I don't think the individuals looking to overthrow the government every time they don't win a seat realize they will throw the stability out with the bath water there.
But, people should not place so much importance on these private businesses. Those are always susceptible to these type of things.

Fischerman (any condition), Deep Forest (race with the megane) and all the other tracks in rain have noticable stutters. Why do you guys get triggered for something that will make the game better? There are lots of people noticing stutter and here you have people saying that they don't want VRR to fix those stutters. And i only said "this game needs it the most" because this the only game i play right now, so i want it to be even better
.I gave you the blueprint where it happens you can try it. Stop beeing a fanboy and think for a moment before commenting. There was nothing wrong with what i asked for, don't get triggered warrior.
But there are literally races in the same track with the same settings for over a hour (the new endurance races), so its not just stress test. And it happens on different tracks also, i wrote them down. Its not only in rain or with a full grid, it happens in races during clear daylight with 1 car on the track also. And again why do you guys get triggered, the game is not perfectly locked 60, yes most of the time its 60 and pretty good actually. But there are part where it drops clearly so to eliminate the parts where its lagging is something good right?
Here go to 4:30 you can literally see the lag at the second last corner, and this is on clear daylight with 1 ai car which is out of screen

Only because he likes to use BFI (black frame insertion) to improve motion clarity on his OLED TV, which doesn’t work with VRR, otherwise he would just leave it on so it can be used in all games to smooth out the framerate and/or remove screen tearing. It’s something you enable on PC for example and don’t have to disable for specific games. It just works.

Awesome. That is a game that will definitely benefit from VRR. Has some pretty horrific screen tearing in places too, such as when you die and respawn on the beach.

Most popular game out right now on all platforms including consoles is ELDEN RING!
....and it runs like dog shyt without VRR enabled on all platforms.
For playstation players that play elden ring, this update will be a god send provided it supports VRR.

What has he worked with on Starfield? I've never seen that. If he bought Xbox that would be unfortunate, but I'd hang in there. You have to have some values.

Dude, I even don't know what Dolby Vision is, something to do with HDR. I can barely tell HDR apart from SDR so I'm not even going to try to tell different types of HDR apart.
HDR was one of the most overhyped TV related things I ever seen so far. On PC it's a complete nightmare and I guess my TVs all suck or I'm color blind or something.
But then again, I've gone to movie theaters all my life and it's not like my mind was ever blown away by image quality or anything, as long as it looks ok I'm good.

HDR10 together with HGiG works better for games...
Dolby Vision works best for streaming services like Netflix, Disney+ etc...

What the hell is wrong with some people here? We finally get VRR on PS5 which will make games even better for people with a VRR tv, but somehow people get triggered whenever they see the word VRR. I don't care on what platform you play or what tv you have, this update is nice and i appreciate it. This will make my PS5 games even better now and look smoother.

Very true, monitors have been running Freesync on HDMI forever. (To those shopping, not all - be sure to verify)

You don't know that the HDMI Forum VRR was put in the HDMI 2.1 specs??? Too bad
We are talking about consoles here, not PC

No, the TV will adjust to the game variation of fps instead of a fixed refresh rate, that's all. No more screen tearing in theory.

HDMI 2.1 is a cluster as well, doesnt guarantee anything but just one of the many features
As an option, not guaranteed

I have no problem with VRR, just tired of being misused as a weapon for console warring.

Right. But, it never needed to be. Xbox has been supporting VRR via Freesync since the launch of 1X (1S? not sure if that one had it or not). This never required HDMI 2.1.
adamsapple
Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
This guy gets it, the certain crowd is needlessly hounding poor Rick.
Freesync is VRR.
VRR is just an abbreviation for variable refresh rate, of which Freesync is one form.
HDMI based VRR is also the same but as done by the HDMI consortium.

The restriction for TV-led DV is bandwidth from the player side since the hardware responsible for handling the data is in the TV (opposite applies for player-led DV - the player instead of the TV is responsible for handling the processing, hence a reasonably powerful chip is required).
If it's not down to licensing the only other logical reason why the PS5 or Xbox Series consoles wouldn't be able to do TV-led DV is down to the disk drives used in the consoles. So unless you know for sure what standard of disk drive is in these consoles it's impossible to say with any certainty whether the playback of DV blu-rays will be possible or not in the future.
