Plex Media Server Logs_2019-05-19_13-23-00.zip (3.2 MB)

Server Version#: 1.15.4.994

The server thinks your tv cannot play 10bit color H.264 files.

thx for answer

but what with this video (see screen)?

video details

That one is not transcoded, but simply remuxed into a different container.
audio=copy, video=copy
Remuxing is not a problem.

I’m understood, thank you
