HEVC not direct playing in new LG app

When we transcode we could limit resolution to 1080p and that may allow it to be fast enough.

but why is it transcoding when it should DS, and when DS it should copy video shouldn't it?, Xplay works, on ALL my HDR files with DD, DDP, DTS, DTS-HD, TrueHD, it just play the core audio whatever it can and HDR works perfect.

it's play fine in XPlay for Plex. so it not down to LG player.

Can you supply a sample and I'll try it here.

 

I have some HDR direct playing, but not all. Seems to be 4K with DTS is OK, but 4K with TrueHD gets transcoded.

 

Also, the Stats for Nerds shows the following during 4K playback:

 

Player Dimensions: 1920 x 1080

Video Resolution: 3840 x 2160

 

Is the LG player that Emby uses not 4K capable?

have you got Blue Planet II UHD ?, that what i testing with. try copy the file that does not play to a USB stick and play from that, also for TrueHD to play make sure you have Dolby Digital 5.1 as Track2, the LG player will automatically see it and use it. at least for me but i do have an older OLED that does not support TrueHD think yours does decode TrueHD i remember you saying

I have Blue Planet 2 in 4K, with DD as the first track (DTS 2nd track) and its playing fine, with the TV recognising it as HDR.

 

Switch to DTS and it transcodes.

Might it be OS specific, as my LG C7V is now webOS3.7?
