Does supporting VRR mean it definitely supports GSYNC?
I know NVIDIA generally are quite finicky with anyone and everything except LG.
Denon announce x700 series with HDMI 2.1 and 8k ready

I think you're wrong. Pretty sure it's a dolby digital TV series. Which TV series off of Netflix are DTS?
I'm pretty sure on the streaming front, Dolby have comfortably won the war. I think Mr. Robot on Bluray was DTS?
On the gaming front, it doesn't matter as the consoles and windows all decode prior to sending anyway.
On the 4K HDR Blu-Ray front, I have very few DTS films (one of which is Gladiator) as nearly all of them at Atmos.
Loads of old Blu Rays are DTSX tho and lots of current TV shows (Mr. Robot Bluray).

I'm not sure now lol, I've definitely played films via USB stick in dts (although they may have been lossless originally). Is the drop in content why they've dropped it?
No idea but Samsung, LG and Sonos have dropped it.
They’ve likely dropped it to save cash. They’ve price dropped the entire launch price range this year due to little moves like this.
I don’t think it’s a clever decision because dts will still exist but it’s definitely quite irrelevant on the steaming side of things
77inch c9 was like 8000. You cx is 4999.
usb stick films will have dts for sure. But I think any high end home theatre enthusiast has an avr and won’t play films from the tvs internal app (madvr is better) except for
Dolby vision content which normally has Dolby atmos with it
From what I've read it's the open standard VRR as in AMD's Freesync. Though that's AMD's name for it .

Somebody on the AVS forum said they had a 4700H and G-sync worked fine via the AVR in to their C9 or CX (I can't remember what model they had)
But it certainly bodes well.
Marantz has joined the party, announcing their HDMI 2.1 receiver line-up
However, they too, are only including a single HDMI 2.1 port and not multiple. They state its very expensive to include more because each port requires its own HDMI 2.1 controller chip so they chose not to and said they expect people will plug their devices into their HDMI 2.1 TV and then use a single HDMI cable into the receiver for audio.

Marantz and Denon are both owned by Sound United.
They are practically the same AVRs with slight differences in sound

I'm waiting for Yamaha.
They've been the same since 2002 ish IIRC
It's VRR compliant so should do tbh, Dare say it's aimed at the console guys rather than us though
