Dolby Vision

[lstryhrn 8]

So I am assuming Dolby Vision doesn't work on the fire tv Emby app. The Emby Android App falls back to HDR and the Emby Android TV app just shows a black screen. My tv shows me if dolby vision or if hdr is playing. 

Its not a fire tv issues because I have tested the same files on Plex and everything is working. But I dont want to use Plex lol 

Any ideals to fix this issue is much appreciated.

I am not sure but does this mean there is no license so transcoding has limitations?

Does this mean a transcoding limit is not high enough to handle the media size?

I have a emby license. I was playing with the bitrate on the app from troubleshooting but the rate I was playing with was way more than was needed. I think I was on like 4K 200 MBPS. I dont have problems on my Shield Device. I only have problems with the Fire Tv.
