The answer from LG is a long-winded way of saying no it does not support DSC. Even though it has HDMI 2.1, without DSC support it won’t be able to reach 8K @ 60hz with full 4:4:4 chroma or RGB. The manual for the TV on LG’s website confirms that this TV can only go up to 8K @ 60hz 4:2:0 or 8K @ 30hz 4:4:4. Hope this is helpful.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The VESA Display Stream Compression is designed to be used with the DisplayPort or other display interface standards that VESA developed as an industry-wide compression standard for video interfaces that features low latency and visually lossless performance, DSC is currently integrated into standards used for embedded display interfaces within mobile systems. These include the VESA embedded DisplayPort (eDP™) Standard v1.4b and the MIPI Display Serial Interface (DSI) specification v1.2 and later versions. Since its initial introduction in April 2014, the DSC standard has achieved broad adoption in smart phones and tablets, and will be used in future notebook PCs. The LG NanoCell 99 Series 2020 65 inch Class with Gallery Design 8K Smart UHD NanoCell TV w/ AI ThinQ® (64.5'' Diag), Model # 65NANO99UNA does not have a DSC codec. All the HDMI ports on the TV are HDMI 2.1 ports and with the new HDMI 2.1 cables, will allow faster refresh rates, including 8K resolution video at 60 frames per second and 4K at 120 frames per second with support for Variable Refresh Rates, and Dynamic HDR and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). HDMI 2.1 can actually go ever further, supporting resolutions as high as 10K at 120Hz—though that kind of capability is a while away from being supported on commercial sets...^IFV
