- Resolution switching
May I ask if there is something new on SD/DVD content? Maybe limit those resolutions to 720p or leave them at the current display resolution?
One thing I also noticed is 4096x2160p content not switching to the 4096x2160 mode. It stays at 3840x2160. Maybe 4096x2160p could be whitelisted as a supported resolution?
- Codec Support
Right now, when playing back av1 files with the shipped mpv-1.dll, Plex HTPC errors out - which is to be expected. The shipped mpv-1.dll was probably built without av1 support but with the self-compiled mpv-1.dll with av1 support, it still errors out. =>

Would it be possible to whitelist av1 in the mentioned “profile”? I mean with the shipped mpv-1.dll it would probably still error out but with the self-compiled version, we could experience av1 content!
With the old Plex Media Player, it was possible to watch av1 content with a self-compiled lib. (At least it worked under Linux - tried it there and it worked just fine)
