On the XG9005 some programmes (especially on netflix) actually look worse on the XG with Dolby Vision than they do on the XE9005 with HDR10. Sabrina (which I have discussed in another thread) is one of those programmes. Its not great on either TV to be honest in HDR as its just too dark, its actually more watchable in SDR. Dolby Vision on the XG actually makes things much, much worse because the XG exhibits horrendous blooming in the black bars on this programme, its not a general issue with HDR content but Sabrina almost seems to turn light zones on and off on the FALD, completely at odds with what is being displayed on the screen.

Why in their wisdom did Sony not add a setting to "disable DV" like you can with standard HDR. Its a clear example of where a switch between No HDR, HDR10 or DV would allow the user to view the content in the way they prefer.

Netflix seems to if you have a premium package and a DV set, you get DV if the programme offers it. So the only way around it is to use an external device without DV or downgrade the Netflix package.
