Picture is too bright compared to LG CX Dolby Vision cinema mode and the DV picture mode changer doesn't work #2

The picture on PC (Energy Media Player) is too bright compared to picture on LG CX Dolby Vision cinema mode playing a Dolby Vision video on Plex.

I've tried changing all possible settings but I just cannot get the same picture. I've matched the TV's settings as close to possible.

The dolby vision picture mode changer that opens from Energy Media Player's settings doesn't do anything. I suspect if it worked, it might fix the problem.

Dark scenes look almost similar but mid bright and bright scenes are too bright on PC. Faces look much better and more natural on the Plex app.

Perhaps this is related to the other issue reported here?

On further inspection it seems that DV profile 5 is more affected than profile 8. Though I've only tested and compared with one P5 video and one P8 video.

MPC Video Renderer suffers this same problem too.

Thank you for reporting the issue. Yes, it is related to the other issue with MaxCLL, MaxFall not being processed from the metadata and passed for the Dolby Vision frame samples causing TVs to use incorrect values instead of the ones encoded in the file. I'm currently working on retrieving and applying that information properly.

Hi, I have raised black levels with energy media player, could it be related to this perhaps?

Hey, i believe it is related. Unfortunately I haven't found fix for the reported issue yet.

Just wanted to say that I fixed my black level raise issue, using Custom Resolution Utility I set the HDR minimum brightness to zero

How did you set it to zero? Mine doesn't let it go to zero, only 1.

You have to leave it blank

Mine was already blank and dxdiag reports Display Luminance: Min Luminance = 0.000000, Max Luminance = 800.000000, MaxFullFrameLuminance = 800.000000

What was your value before?

TrumpetMonkey commented 3 months ago

I don't see any values in dxdiag, but my value in CRU was 17 I also want to mention that I used the MS store HDR calibration tool before using CRU

I see, what monitor do you have? If it's OLED, the value 16 was definitely too much for all content, not just Energy player.

AOC Q27G3XMN, its Mini LED

Well these values only affect the Dolby Vision extension and Auto HDR right? I never use AutoHDR so I didn't have black level raise in HDR games (native or SpecialK) or normal HDR10 movies in mpv. I only noticed it after using Energy media player.
