Re: In The Line of Fire 4K (USA)

That explains a lot. I'm assuming you can't just copy / paste the disc files via OS either? Sorry, new to the game.

Re: Official Dolby Vision MKV spec support

Plex on the ATV is a bit of a hot mess in my opinion, which is why I always use Infuse. Unfortunately, I updated mine the other day to the tvOS 15 beta, so I could play around with spatial audio (which is amazing by the way). That has totally borked Infuse for the time being. I don't remember if In...

Re: Official Dolby Vision MKV spec support

Couple questions: 1) Currently with MakeMKV it should just be creating a single layer file, correct? With DV as part of that? 2) Does Plex via Apple TV 4K not support playing a .mkv with both DV *and* True-HD/Atmos? Whenever this happens, it regresses to HDR10/PCM and transcodes until one changes t...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

I've noticed that Plex on Apple TV will not play a .mkv with DV if the audio is True-HD/7.1. Plex forces the audio to transcode rather than direct play, and the DV becomes HDR10. If you change the audio track to something else, like AAC, the DV ends up playing fine. No such problem on Nvidia Shield ...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

I'm sorry for drudging this up again but I am drawing a complete mental blank. Should this be triggering DV on a Shield Pro? Screenshot 2020-10-25 095249.png No, it looks like a dual layer remux but it won't work on anything as the EL doesn't have Dolby Vision. That's what I thought - thanks for co...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

So is DV working with MKV rips now ? This is my current playback method and haven't seen DV get triggered by my LG CX on any recent DV MKV rips: HTPC . Emby . MadVR . MPC-BE. Explain it to me like I'm five. What I gotta do? Won't work on LG. Have to use a Shield with the custom exoplayer found in t...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

Hey folks - looks like still no update from Plex, huh?

Is there a way to turn on subtitles using Yuescope's (very helpful) custom Exoplayer? I can't seem to figure it out.

Shield owners might want to take a look at this: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/fo ... ta-signup/

Not allowed to say what it contains though ;) :D 8)
Very cool. Thanks for sharing!

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

Sorry do you mind clarifying what you mean by full exit and splash screen restart? I usually go to multitasking and select dismiss from below it. Sorry for the confusion. I meant a full restart where you close down the app in such a way that it starts with the KODI splash screen when you launch it ...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1

Went through a re-install of both and doesn't seem to be detected again. Trying to mount it on my Windows box but on my Mac box it doesn't seem to allow me to change file permissions. Edit: On Windows it says the userdata folder has Read-only which I can't change. So I'm not 100% sure if permission...
