somy 24 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Hi, my Intel based iMac is fully capable of playing H264/H265 4K content, however I have a hard time to find a good Emby client on Mac. I tried the following: 1) Kodi: it plays everything smoothly, however for some reason it uses too much GPU resource and cause the fan spinning at high speed all the time. 2) Emby: it plays fine, however no HDR-SDR conversion, and if the video has TrueHD or MasterHD Audio track it shuttles every few seconds, strangely the CPU usage was low, so not sure why? Any recommendation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36878 Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Hi, tone mapping is supported in the Emby MacOS app. What version do you have installed? Can we please look at an example? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you confirm the issue with TrueHD and MasterHD audio track? Looks like I cannot play movie smoothly with HD audio track, when I switch to AC3 it works fine.

Luke 36878 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Hi, this should be improved with the combinations of the next release of the app and server. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
