At first, the files seemed to play ok, but once I skipped to another point in the film it refused to play and showed message: "the file can't be recognized". Now that message is shown everytime I try to open the files so I can't even play the film anymore. Any idea? The TV did recognize the files at first so it's really weird that it does not recognize the files now anymore. The files are not corrupted btw, I tested them on my computer and they play fine, only without dolby vision.

not sure in your situation, sounds like a tv issue-maybe because of the prof 5.06? people say it plays great on the shield and atv4 (and probably fire tv-I'll test tonight). also-not to hijack your post or anything - but seeing this, I feel like compressed x265's could still work in dolby vision (read a while back that x265 now supported dv), and those saying nope it has to be the full lossless video track were misinformed. I should have tested it myself but I just went along believing it. the 30-ish GB x265's you get when you compress a full disc (and leave audio alone) look fantastic still and save you a ton of space! I might do up a few and try to keep dv and compare some before/after screens to see if dv color profile is properly retained etc.

However, I tried 2.8.0 directly from Playstore and there's also no such thing as 'Local Network', there's only a bunch of useless added crap
See for yourself:

Not sure if it's allowed to post pirated content links here but i did a TS remux with subtitles from that release and it plays great on my x700. I also tested playback on the Shield and the C8. no issue at all.

I also muxed the Star Wars New Hope profile 05.06 DV web-dl with TrueHD Atmos. Works perfectly everywhere I tested playback.

I think it's your tv, bud. I 'tested' it (I have Disney+) on the firestick 4k and it plays in mx player and it looks great, but stutters due to mx player's lack of frame rate switching

Nothing special, I just added the mp4 and subtitles into tsmuxer.
But i read on the doom9 forum that someone else with a C9 struggle playing the TS sample file from the mandalorian. Another user with a C6 said there was no issue playing it.
So since my c8 also work, it sounds like something is different on the C9 internal player

yeah I downloaded that TS sample file and it refused to play on my C9. On your C8 it plays fine? Are you able to skip to other points in the film?
