House of the Dragon's darkness problems are made even worse when there's light in the room. And yes, the TV is turned on! (Image credit: John Archer) Now, Sky finally confirmed to us that House Of The Dragonwill indeed be available in 4K / HDR on Sky Q and Sky Glass, as long as you have the appropriate subscription.
Each edition has all 10 episodes of the HBO series’ first season, along with more than an hour of bonus features, plus two more all-new featurettes. The 4K Ultra HD or Blu-ray versions will also entitle buyers to a digital copy, but only in the U.S. While House of the Dragon is available to stream on HBO Max in 4K with Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos sound, a 4K Blu-ray copy will still provide the highest-quality audio and video possible for home viewing. House of the Dragon episodes are dark though. Such has been the commonplace of many darker dramas. You might consider brightening your screen if the imagery is too obscure. We tested in cinema mode on two different TV screens, and both were on the dark side even in daylight scenes. House of The Dragonis based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Bloodbook, and isset 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones.

As if the overwhelmingly dark scenes weren't enough, House of the Dragon also at times triggers an odd blue glow (Image credit: John Archer) Rhaenyra all the more amazing, something that D'Arcy may be the beneficiary of once D'Arcy assumes the role. This series may not (yet?) have Fans were left up in arms thanks to the reduced detail of shadowy set-pieces with many viewers unable to work out what was going on thanks to artifacts plaguing action scenes. Familiar Places (HD; 3:32) kind of echoes some of the content of Height of an Empire, focusing on production design. It’s also the case that, from what I’ve seen of it, premium content mastering typically takes place in a very dark environment far removed from the light-drenched living rooms many regular folk watch TV in. While I don’t think it’s unreasonable, actually, for a show like House Of The Dragon to hope, even expect viewers to close their curtains and dim/turn off their lights when watching it, though, it doesn’t seem reasonable to make recreating the sort of controlled darkness found in mastering suites at home pretty much a viewing requirement to the extent House Of The Dragon does.

In fact, my interest in AV tech means I actually love to see shows that aren’t afraid to push the picture technology envelope. It seems to me, though, that there’s a big and important difference between mastering something so that only the finest, most cutting-edge TVs will be able to get the maximum benefit from it, and mastering something so that it will become flat-out unwatchable on the sort of TVs that most people can afford.

Thankfully it looks like those wanting to watch the latest Targaryen family feud won’t have any such problems this time out. finesse in production design (no errant coffee cups that I noticed) and costuming, if occasionally less than completely convincing CGI. Also as with With the (always unlikely sounding) ‘it was mastered in HDR and nobody thought about how it might look in SDR’ excuse pushed for Game Of Thrones not an option for House Of The Dragon’s obtuse HDR darkness, it feels like the only other excuses left are the difference in quality between mastering monitors and regular consumer TVs, and potential spanners thrown into the works by the broadcast and streaming parts of the AV ‘chain’. The ‘but it’s what the creator wanted, so we just need to deal with it’ argument will still be used by some AV fans to bail House Of The Dragon’s mastering out. And to be fair, to some extent this case is bolstered by the simple fact that Episode 3, Season 8 of Game Of Thrones looked far better balanced and more watchable when it appeared on 4K Blu-ray than it did during its disastrous original broadcasts. fun to see erstwhile Doctor Who Matt Smith turn up in this enterprise as the brother of a king without a male heir who is passed over in the line of succession in favor of theignored by her father in his relentless pursuit for a male heir. Viserys randy younger brother Prince Daemon (Matt Smith) has come to each episode.
