Plex lg oled11/1/2023 ![]() ![]() I do not have any Surround sound set up as yet, I will probably get a sub but for now I guess you can say all we have is the Sonos sound bar connected. I have the beam connected through the HDMI 2 Port ARC to the Sonos gen 2 HDMI port. Nvidia Shield is connected to HDMI 3 to my LG Oled C2 TV. Here is how I have it set up as of yesterday: I guess I'm a bit lost or confused somewhat on the set up so, perhaps you folks could chime in on our set up. There are so many threads and great info here on the forum and I have spent hours reading through them and thanks for all that post. I haven't had time to test these but I hope to in the coming days to see what works.New User, New Beam Gen 2 hook up help. There are some test files that folks are trying to use on their devices to see what will / will not play. I'm just trying to show how many things have to align for DV to properly play. I'm not an expert in all of this by any means. ![]() Sometimes a device can only recognize one of those types. MEL (minimal enhancement layer) and FEL (full enhancement layer). The TV needs to be able to recognize this circumstance for it to trigger DV mode. The latest version of MakeMKV converts the UHD discs to Single track / Dual Layer MKVs. My understanding is UHD blu-rays are Dual track / Dual layer. My understanding is a lot of DV demo video files are single layer. Then the TV has to support playing the particular profile. Profile 8 is used on the new iphone when recording with DV). (Profile 5 is used by streaming services. I'm not an expert on this but my understanding is that there are many variables that factor into whether a file will play properly. The DV MKVs are a new development though so it is anyone's guess as to what an update would need to include to make things work. My LG C7 plays DV MP4s made from mp4muxer fine. Essentially meaning that an update would really need to come from LG (firmware) in order to support playing the files with DV. I'm under the impression that the Plex app that runs directly on the LG TVs is just a front-end for the internal player built into the TV. ![]()
