There are a lot of videos that I’d like to watch in UHD and/or HDR but there is no streaming service that provides them. Why is that? Why do they not release them in UHD? The cameras they are shooting it with are more than cappable of providing UHD.

For reference for other purist UHD snobs like me;

Is there a list like this for fake HDR? I hate when I grab an old film movie in 4K and they shoehorn in annoying faux HDR effects.
It’s surprising how many relatively recent movies were upscaled to 4K rather than natively shot in that quality. While it’s something I’d expect for movies from the early 2000s, having neither the benefit of rescannable film reels nor high quality digital cameras, it doesn’t make sense for more recent film series such as Maze Runner, The Hunger Games, Now You See Me, Divergent, and Jurassic World, among others. Especially odd is that some of those series have one movie natively shot in 4K despite the rest being upscaled.
Leaves me undecided on whether it’s worth keeping releases with such a large footprint in my media library if they’re not in true 4K…
I think about the same …
I wonder whether you can compress fake 4K better than true 4k
Thanks!
