What Titles are 4K, HDR/Dolby Vision on Netflix and Amazon?

Before we delve into these titles I think a brief introduction to these exciting new formats is in order, after all not all of us keep up to date with the latest technological trends.

4K UHD TV sets are becoming more and more common in the household these days it seems as if the increased resolution format is starting to become the norm as it was back in the days of the leap to HD from SDR.

Many of these new sets also support the HDR10 bit colour garment which features High-dynamic-range imaging techniques to produce a greater dynamic range of luminosity & shadows than is possible with TV sets that do not support it (this includes the more basic 4K only TV sets).

The Dolby Vision HDR12 bit format, on the other hand, is the very latest in HDR technology featuring significantly increased colour range and a sharper contrast between highlights and shadows. This delivers picture quality that is much more vivid and lifelike, a visual representation of how this may look can be seen below.


So with all this great technology now available to us how is it we can benefit from this new format, what HDR titles are readily available to us? Well, recently Two Honest Guys reached out to 2 of the biggest streaming services in the world Netflix & Amazon to find out what titles they have that are 4K and carry the HDR/Dolby Vision colour garment.

Amazon Prime UK were happy to provide this list to us of their current 4K HDR titles. I can confirm that these titles are indeed 4K HDR, I am however unable to confirm if these titles support the Dolby Vision 12-bit colour garment. Amazon of course house a huge selection of 4K movie titles to rent or buy on their streaming service, so this list below is only what is provided with Amazon Prime membership.

Amazon UK 4K HDR Title List

  • Sneaky Pete – Prime Pilot
  • Masters of Sex
  • The Kicks – Season 1
  • Bosch Season 1
  • Just Add Magic
  • The Man In The High Castle
  • Mad Dogs
  • Mozart in the Jungle
  • Alpha House Season 2
  • Transparent Season 1
  • Red Oaks Season 1 -Prime Pilot

It’s worth noting here that although I own a 2017 LG Oled C7V 4K Dolby Vision TV set these titles did not appear with the Dolby Vision logo or display it in the top corner of my screen.

Despite a direct quote from the Amazon representative “Please be informed that Dolby Vision replaces an HDR title on Dolby Vision compatible devices, for Dolby Vision enabled content.

Strange it seems then I cannot view this in Dolby Vision then despite it being available in HDR. If any readers out there have had success with any of these titles appearing in Dolby Vision please let me know in the comments below, it may of course just be the TV set this testing was performed on.

We reached out to Netflix on two separate occasions and although we have yet to receive any correspondence back we harbour no ill will against the streaming giant. Thus THG has painstakingly looked through Netflix’s vast library and I can confirm that these titles support HDR and Dolby Vision if your TV set supports it.

It’s worth noting here as well that a few select titles below also support the new Dolby Atmos format, to which I have added in brackets when supported. All other titles support the standard 5.1 Dolby Digital format.
