I am writing in this old post just to update information. Sony Bravia TVs (or at least the one I have, A8H - 2020) can play profiles 5 profiles 8 and even 7 MEL (not 7 FEL). Profile 7 must necessarily be in single track (makeMkv). All this tested by me with Emby app for android

Sorry if all this has been known for some time and I have written obvious things

Thanks.  I'm seriously thinking of a Sony for my next TV and glad to see they support DV7 MEL.  Couldn't find anything in the user's manual stating that. 

I sort of figured all new Sony's supported 8.1 though because Sony has their own streaming service Bravia Core which uses profile 8.1 and requires a 115 mbps connection.

I am happy to have been a help to you.

I have to specify that Sony default media player cannot play Dolby Vision.

It is necessary to use third-party apps such as Emby (but also some Kodi builds)

My Sony X93J default media player definitely plays  Dolby Vision. The Emby app instead does not.

Hi.  Can you try sideloading our standard android app on the same device and see how that compares?

Thanks.
