I'm debating between a sony x950h (player led) and x900h (TV led-what I currently have but considering switching due to better PQ/higher peak brightness in the 950h)

The source of the --skip-hdr10plus switch

I basically implemented the same behavior on the fly before the data gets sent to the decoder.

I wonder is possbile to force non-dv video to play as dv via kodi on Shield TV?
It would help to better understand "red push" cause on Shield.
Since p7 and p8 are affected (both in TV-led and Player-led modes) and p5 is not there is only logical conclusion that something wrong with YCbCr processing on Shield's DV decoder. P5 is IPT
To prove it we should play plain HDR10 or SDR video via DV decoder.
But there is not possible for user to force DV output on Shield for non-dv video.

On my C9 it looked fine and played fine. Seems like LG did remove the ability to play dual layer dolby vision file from the CX (and probably upcoming oled tvs as well). That sucks.

As of the recent update CX can play P7 Dual Layer mp4s. But MEL only.
The 07.06 file you linked to is Dual Track, not Dual Layer.

Can you please recheck Shield TV on MIF bath fight scene with capture card?

Is it me or there is some noticable improvement with 8.2.2 update?
Can't spot red blocking while playing mkv via plex.
DV triggered

Maybe I just missed this very frame.

Meanwhile Dr Sleep still has noticable red push

To throw in a little detail to the mix. CX can play Dual Track DV MP4 files, but the file has to have been made using mp4muxer v1.0.0. The latest version of mp4muxer, v1.0.1, does something with file that it isn't played by the tv anymore. I checked the code changes, and it may be the change where they introduce the Alternate Group flag. With v1.0.1 this is set to 1 for both the BL and the EL+RPU tracks, previously this was 0. The BL track is also set as the "default". It may be that this is either wrong for DV files from a MP4 spec point of view, or, the TV has a bug requiring the group to be 0. It is still required to be MEL.
