XBOX ONE X and Dolby Vision

Hi!

Are there any plans to support playback of Dolby Vision MKV videos with the XBOX ONE X app?

The app plays MP4 with DolbyVision without any problem, but not MKV files (colors are tinted purple and green). It would be great if finally we could enjoy both DolbyVision and HD audio in PLEX.

According to this post: Plex for Xbox - #104 by Moussa

DolbyVision should be supported (profiles 4 and 5) any plans for higher profiles? Or is it an XBOX licensing problem?

Hi there. We’d have to look into why there are issues with DV streams in MKVs. No plans at the moment to support higher profiles, those are currently the profiles the Xbox supports.

Also interested in this, but I have a Xbox Series X instead.

As I understand it, the xbox itself doesn’t recognize (or won’t play) DV when it’s in an MKV file. I don’t know if the Plex app can do anything about it. I know that MP4 dolby vision files will work on the xbox however.
