I couldn't agree more. Nothing is won by this as it essentially doesn't tell anything useful. @Luke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So shouldn't Emby theoretically being able to do the same for Android/AndroidTV - independent of the hardware support? @softworkz do you think this or similar will come to exo, too?

First of all - nothing can be done without any kind of hardware support. It's just too much processing needed to do it in software. Then there's the question about which kind of hardware support. Either, there's specific support for DoVi, then a player could use that. This would be limited to devices officially supporting DoVi (licensed). This is the only way I would expect for Exo player support officially - as Exo player is maintained by Google. Maybe there will be a Vulkan based implementation at some time in the future, done by someone as a (non-official) Exo player extension. In that case, Emby might be able to pick it up - but I wouldn't count on this to happen. Now about Infusion: As far as I understand, they do not add general DoVi capability to TVOS devices. They only enable playback of profile 8 to devices which are already supporting DoVi (profile 5) by somehow converting P8 to P5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping that this kind of approach would come to the amazon devices some days, too - As like the Apple TV they also just support profile 5.

horstepipe 356 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Sorry I highjacked the thread a little. @Abobaderwould you mind splitting it up since this post thread title "dolby vision in exopolayer" or similar. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horstepipe 356 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Although on the Fire tv specs page you see this: @rbjtech? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry - little confused - What are you querying ? Since Amazon devices started supporting DV (from the Fire TV Stick 4K onwards I believe), they have always supported profiles 5 and 8 (and 9). Which are the 'streaming' profiles. Profile 7 is the profile only a few devices support because it's the 'UHD Disk' profile - and thus I guess they don't want to be seen supporting potentially non streaming content. The Shield 2019 is still king here - it plays/supports them all. Edited April 5, 2023 by rbjtech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for TVOS (mpv player), is there any chance for Emby to also "enable playback of profile 8 to devices which are already supporting DoVi (profile 5)?

You could ask in the MPV forums whether that's possible with MPV. If yes, then we can look how to make it work, but if MPV can't do it, then there's probably not much we can do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generiq 113 Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 mpv only supports DV through tone mapping. I suspect that might be too much processing for a TVOS device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
