@Jaytie2k7 The reason why h264 high 10 media isn't working is becuase the Fire TV isn't advertising that it has those capabilities even though it is supported. Thus it will fail Jellyfin’s decoder test, causing the media to transcode or remux depending on what version you are using.
I don’t see a way that is going to be solved, but I did create a workaround #3406. You can test it out here. You’ll need to download the build artifact and sideload to try it out. In the playback preferences, you’ll find an option that says AVC High10 compatibility mode, make sure that is selected then try playing the media.

Describe the bug
When using Jellyfin on my FireTV Stick 4K Max with Exoplayer I have issues playing back 1080p h264 10bit. The videos play fine, but there is no sound. Doesn't matter of it's DTS-HD MA, DTS, DD... First of, these problems only occur on 1080p material, that I encoded with Handbrake using h264 10bit. All Audiostreams are just passed through. These problems do not occur on ie. untouched Blu-rays, neither do they occur on h265 10bit encodes. When using libvlc or an external player like VLC, audioplayback works, but the videos are stuttering.
In the Jellyfin usersettings I deactivated Audio and Videotranscoding.
If "Allow video playback via conversion without re-encoding" isn't ticket, the 1080p content doesn't play at all. If it is ticket, video playback works but without sound.
If Audio transcoding is ticket, all works but then it seems to be transcoded to aac.
That would be fine, but I'm wondering, why h265 works but h264 doesn't...
