What is your aversion to saliva? Why is this a drawback? Saliva was the star of "Hamilton".

Absy-fren knows Tp4 would've never been able to fordz hamilton tikets.

But saliva is realllly sticky and gooey looking in 4K. Sometimes also during close ups, if the person talking has dry mouth , it looks like their lips are semi glued together.  IDK, for whatever reason visually it's disconcerting.

Only reason I have D+ is thanks to Verizon, and for my A.Prime we use a large portion of the suite they offer other than the Prime video.  Other than that Netflix can go at it with themselves on their over-priced crapfest.  If I want something I have my sources to get it for my plex server.

Also wouldn't mind some 21:9 options for TV's over the 16:9/16:10 we've been given.  Kind of surprised we haven't been marketed Super-Ultrawide TV's.

Plex server works pretty good. The plex player isn't so great though.  Mpchc + Madvr is still the only solid 10bit hdr solution w/ color correction support.

Yeah the player really needs more work on the service.  I do plan on working on making that better for the panels that would take advantage of that - my LG 55" is in storage as I have no where to put it or more the other half thinks it's over-kill for the bedroom.

Nawhhhh.. Any space more than 5 feet across requires at least a 65"

55" is just fine , even demure/ classy

Wallmounting makes a difference too. The monitor is the world, everything else is secondary.
