so I watched the 8 minute Planet Earth test mention here

http://www.a516digital.com/2016/12/b...g-to-skyq.html

It is essentially a 4 minute video and repeats itself, just the first half is really vibrant and colourful and the second version looks like standard colours. Can anyone confirm if the first version is HDR

From the BBC website.


***Updated Monday 19 December***
It is now possible to see the Planet Earth 2 footage on Sky Q in UHD. The clip has been automatically converted from the HLG original to a SDR, standard colour asset for use with BBC iPlayer on Sky Q.

No - it quite clearly states it has been converted to SDR.

Just watched it on my 49ins Panasonic, makes sky sports UHD look drab, to say the least.
