Ok so this is a very known and old issue on the Apple TV 4K 3rd gen, with the plex app stuttering when playing 4k hdr/dv movies, specially larger files.

There are plenty of topics about it. My question is, when will this issue be fixed? How can Infuse and every other app play the same files without any issue but plex still stutters with the same issue which hasn’t been fixed over years?
