Further testing gave me and unknown HDR mode with a red tint - this happened for both Top Gun and Gladiator but not Universal Soldier.Mr_Orange wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 12:17 pmI have a 2015 LG so I am restricted to 30Hz for DV but it seems to be working(ish). Some films are more reliable than others it seems. For instance, Universal Soldier works every time but Gladiator and Top Gun either default to HDR10 or don't display any video despite the soundtrack runing.jakuboleksy wrote: ↑Tue Oct 06, 2020 3:49 pmhttps://forums.plex.tv/t/release-announ ... 154124/362

Player: Live TV is no longer supported in the old player.
Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Were you streaming from a Shield? That's also a known problem, but with the Shield itself, unrelated to Plex. They're working on that and there's a hotfix available now (not an official release yet): https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/fo ... fix-image/
You can get access to the hotfix versions by giving Nvidia the serial number on your Shield and then they'll show as available when you do a system update: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIp ... ONTDELETE-

Yes, it was with a Shield. Thank you for the information on the Hotfix.Cannikin wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 9:20 pmWere you streaming from a Shield?

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Very nice, another software update to cross off the list! Once Plex gets DV working consistently without the few issues being reported, and it's rolled into the non-Beta branch, I'll be very happy. Originally, I was hoping all the software apps would be ready with DV by Xmas so it looks like we'll be ahead of my own prediction.Cannikin wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 4:26 pmIdentifying Dolby Vision in MKV files is coming to MediaInfo by tomorrow! https://github.com/MediaArea/MediaInfo/ ... -705658836

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Confirmed I have been able to get Dolby Vision to work with:
1.15.3 MakeMKV
LG CX 77"
Plex Beta 8.8.0.21038
I have to stop and start the movie several times at the beginning as the defaults to HDR but then eventually gets Dolby Vision. I don't think that's a MakeMKV issue, I think its a plex issue. Well done to makemkv for supporting Dolby Vision!

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Hi, experts. You are my only salvation. Please I have Synology, but I updated to DSM 7 and unfortunately I can't PLEX (yes my mistake). There is a chance that I should play DV mkv via KODI. How to connect KODi with SYNOLOGY. I'm running through SHIELD. Thank you so much for your help or advice

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
To trigger Dolby Vision it must be single video channel or will work with dual video channels?

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
There must be something about my UHD DV rips that isn't right because I am able to get the test files to play fine and TV shows dolby vision, but playing anything in Kodi with the exoplayer default set, or playing in the new plex beta does not trigger dolby vision. Playing on a shield pro 2019. Any suggestions?
Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Can you not mount the Synology as a network share in the Shield and then run Plex server on the Shield itself?Tomas wrote: ↑Fri Oct 09, 2020 9:17 pmHi, experts. You are my only salvation.

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
If by dual channel you guys are talking about the BL and EL being on separate tracks, then no it will not work. Not on the Shield at leastApexAftermath wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 5:28 pmI would like to know the answer to this as well.
