Add Dolby Vision to Xbox

Now that Dolby Vision is available on Xbox, can you update the video player so we can play back Dolby Vision content?

HI, yes it's something we can look into. Thanks.

Hey @Luke

I ask. Wouldn't it be better, or possible, to enable passthrough audio instead or also?

DV is a Video HDR feature not an audio feature

Audio passthrough will be needed to get Dolby Vision to work though unless Luke fixes the transcoding logic. Right now the Xbox app incorrectly transcodes supported audio formats causing all 4k to fail.

Yep! That's what got me thinking about the Emby app.
