Plex on iPad with iOS 16 not tone mapping HDR to SDR with direct play media

Plex Players Player Betas

Hi,

Having some weird playback issues when direct playing UHD media with HDR10 in mkv container on iPad 8th gen running iOS 16.2 with Plex iOS beta 8.14 (4835).

When direct playing content, colors are now washed out or faded, like a LUT was not applied to LOG media.

However, when forcing a transcode to 1080p, colors are properly tone mapped.

I do not see this issue on iPhones running the same software.

Thanks!
