Here's a list of movies on BD100 discs that you won't be able to watch in their entirety on a Sony 4K player.

The UB420 is the best non-Dolby Vision 4K disc player you can get, so it's hard to go wrong (it specifically has a mode in 'Settings>HDMI>Advanced>HDR Display Type' for "OLED" but you can try all the different modes). I watch 1080 discs on it all the time. 99% certain the player is doing the upscaling in my situation. Since you're specific TV doesn't support Dolby Vision, there really isn't a reason for you to NOT get the UB420.
I am very brand agnostic. Until these Panasonic players came around I was a huge fan of Sony and had them before 4K. Because the Panasonic UB820 (with Dolby Vision) and the UB420 (without Dolby Vision) have built in user selectable tone mapping settings with that TV Type setting, the HDR Optimizer and a few other image adjustment settings no other 4K disc player has, I just don't know of a compelling reason to buy any other player brand.
I will say though, the X700M having Dolby Vision at $150 is pretty incredible, but there is so much more regular HDR10 content and so much benefit with the settings in the UB420. If you have lots of Dolby Vision discs and your TV is Dolby Vision capable, there just might be a solid case to buy both.
Thanks, I'll prob get the ub820 then at some point. 👍
You can use your current computer as an HTPC for PLEX.
HDD storage (1TB) is $25.
Free Ripping software:

There is "work" in getting your arse off the couch and flipping discs. So, the convenience of PLEX is broadcasting ALL your movies to ANY and ALL rooms. If you wanted to do that, how many of these players do you need for EACH television? Or are you going to be carrying your Sony player around? Stop being a boomer and stream (your own content).
Don't you lose Dolby vision doing this? Aren't those formats mostly hdr10? Not that it makes that much of a difference but dv is slightly better.
I could be wrong but I think if they don't compress it's the same other than maybe losing Dolby vision and it playing in hdr10 which is a minor loss in dynamic range.

Gotcha... But would there be difference in blu ray media playback?
