Disney+ DV files

#1 Post by Voodoo90 » Sun Jan 02, 2022 9:39 am

Hi,
I have recently tried to playback mkvs from Disney+ DV sources like the Avengers Infinity IMAX Enhanced version.
Though on my Apple TV Plex the file will not playback correctly. Everything has a purple and green tint. I understand that this is likely a DV problem, but the AppleTV plays these files just fine on Disney+ directly.
Does anybody have the same experience with Disney+ DV mkvs and knows if there is a fix? Would a device like a Zappiti be able to playback these files?
Cheers

It may be that Dolby Vision Profile 5 playback is not supported on your AppleTV device in an MKV container. You could try extracting the tracks from the MKV and remuxing them with MP4Muxer. Try playing the resulting MP4 file back and see if you still have the issue. Dolby Vision Profile 5 is what all streaming services are using. It's single-layer dolby vision and uses a proprietary color space.
