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.
