Unless this changed in the new X-generation of TV's, you can only get LLDV from the Shield into an LG Oled via HDFury EDID spoofing.DaMacFunkin wrote: ↑Thu Dec 03, 2020 10:01 pmive been thinking this over and it makes sense...
Your CX is internally processing HDR via its app correctly, correct colours, correct tone map and as such it looks good.
Dolby Vision from the shield is being processed by the shield (player led LLDV) and as such looks a little darker, you also have the incorrect color to deal with.
For some reason the LG’s even though they can do TV led processing of Dolby Vision, request player led by default.
If you have an Oppo or Oppo clone you can force TV led processing (RGB 8 bit tunnelling) and it looks brighter than selecting player led ( 12 bit LLDV).
I appreciate the feedback and knowledge. So the Shield still has color issues.. and the LG CX does a great job with HDR. I am now going to invest in a 4K UHD player(to support the 4K disc market). While I enjoy having the ability to play backups and save shelf space, I want to get the best picture on my CX. As the technology improves, maybe one day the Shield will be a great alternative. I'm going to remux to m2ts to see if DV logo shows in the CX plex app & check for visual differences.
