Does it work if you uncheck the Allow video playback that requires transcoding
for the user in the Dashboard?
No hevcVideoRangeTypes

Edge doesn't support PQ HDR tone-mapping well which is a known issue of the browser impl. See this table for more details (https://github.com/StaZhu/enable-chromium-hevc-hardware-decoding#hdr-supports-compared-with-edge--safari).
Chrome supports PQ/HDR tone-mapping well thats why you wasn't facing any issue on Chrome.
I was having the same issue on Chrome, but I didn't post it because it was shown as unsupported in the docs.
It works in Plex on Chrome, not Jellyfin. No browser I tested shows HDR for Jellyfin.
When playing YouTube in Edge, HDR works fine. Same as Chrome. I don't know what you mean about PQ tone-mapping in Edge.
Since I have hardware acceleration disabled, there's no tone-mapping anyway.
And on an HDR display, I don't always need a tone mapper enabled. My display can handle it in some scenarios (like a TV).
Edge doesn't browser side tone-mapping at all. So you have to rely on server side tone-mapping.
We currently only support DV/HDR ->SDR tone-mapping with GPU on your server. And CPU based software tone-mapping is WIP.
Chrome does support tone-mapping but it requires this PR: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/pull/4041
That PR, #4041, will enable HDR in Chrome just like Plex?
Yes. It enables HDR direct play and HEVC transcoding for Chrome.
You can also modify this line to allow HDR in Chrome. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/pull/4041/files#diff-a78ea2803d6a5a5ae575ccbe06597ca3489dd840596c4c7e07b1b9427397364fR883
Thank you, this clarification helped a lot. I tried the PR locally and it worked. For anyone else looking for a temporary solution - build jellyfin-web locally with #4041
Yes. It enables HDR direct play and HEVC transcoding for Chrome.

Hello, I also want to enable HDR direct play for Chrome, but I cannot find the file src/scripts/browserDeviceProfile.js in my Synology. The Jellyfin I am using is installed directly through the SPK file of synology community. So what should I do now, I'm sorry I'm a novice in this field. I'm looking forward to your reply.

Describe The Bug
When playing HDR content from Jellyfin web, it's transcoding that content instead of sending it to my browser in HDR.
Looks like this (left to right):
I took this screenshot in SDR mode. In HDR mode, Jellyfin looks the same, but the other two clip as-expected because it's an SDR screenshot:
Steps To Reproduce
Expected Behavior
I expect Jellyfin to play HDR content in one of these ways:

Additional Context
This is a new Jellyfin install this week. I'm running it in a Docker container through TrueNAS using the TrueCharts version. I've also modified the resource limitations to 16 threads and 32GB of RAM.
This chart says Edge HDR is supported with the HEVC Extensions which is why I bought them:
