HDR playback issue #38

Closed Plazzmex closed 3 years ago

Hey,

I'm trying to understand why my Philips tv doesn't play the HDR Videos. I have the Philips Android TV model PUS8505 from last year.

  1. The TV spec sheet says that it supports all the HDR formats and video formats including Dolby Vision, hdr10, hdr10+, hlg and vp9, avc and hevc codecs.

  2. Netflix and other apps shows Dobly vision content perfectly and the TV shows a notification that Dolby vision is being used.

  3. In the debug section of the app everything shows as True, but the HDR Videos are still black screen. The debug screen also shows that my tv is at 1080p at 60hz, maybe it has something to do with this? Although it is a 4k screen and as mentioned earlier Other video apps do support 4k content with Dolby Vision.

  4. I've tested both the 1080p HDR stream and 4k HDR stream and both get black screen instead of the video and no Dolby vision notification is shown

Is there anything else that can be done? Or am I doomed to use SDR ?

Regards
