AUDIO / VIDEO QUALITY

   Unlike the previous model i had here by Dune HD the Pro Vision 4K Solo supports the Dolby Vision standard so to that end i decided to showcase the sole movie title i have that also supports it (Zack Snyder’s Justice League). Of course, since this movie is way too dark (not to mention shot in 4:3 format and not exactly colorful) i also used several other 4k titles (Blu-Rays converted to H.265 HEVC MKV) to test the Pro Vision 4K Solo and as expected i wasn't disappointed. It is certainly almost impossible to notice any image quality differences with the Pro 4K II model which i reviewed a while back but the Pro Vision 4K Solo clearly produces smoother playback with some media that the 4K II had some tiny issues with. I did read of some audio sync issues that some people have when using bitstream output but I was unable to reproduce them since I don’t have the same setup as they do. So yes, at least from my personal experience you can expect smooth, crystal clear picture with live/vivid colours (without banding as far as I can tell after watching over a dozen 4K movies with it) and very good audio performance (for some strange reason however it seems that the HDMI output is not as loud/amplified as that of the Pro 4K II model.

   Also, since i did start doing this a while back once again i decided to push the limits of the player at hand by using several HDR H265 HEVC 10-bit demo files with bitrates all the way up to 400 Mbit/s and the sole issue i encountered was the player crashing to the main menu once while using the 350-400 Mbit/s file. This of course is slightly too much as a test since you will have a hard time finding media files that surpass even 100 Mbit/s in bitrate let along 300-400 but it does help show just how powerful a media player is, not only in terms of hardware specifications but also software.
