HAVING ISSUES WITH Plex 4K HVEC X265 HDR PLAYBACK on Xbox X


Recommended Posts

Plex Docker

 

My CPU is a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4690K CPU @ 3.50GHz and play 4K HVEC X265 HDR for a minute but then buffer and play HDR like SDR on my Xbox One X. Is it the CPU/Plex ore my Xbox?

Background

My Samsung KW 950 do not have DTS 7.1/DTS-X but ATMOS. My  Xbox trans code DTS-X to ATMOS and the sound is super on no ATMOS 7.1 movies. On my Shield HDR is perfect, work wherry well with ATMOS. But not as good when it comes to DTS 7.1

 

Here a film when I monitor Unraid when use Plex to Xbox One

Thank you, much about what I suspected.

But it works on Shield TV. from same server. But I use Kodi on Shield because I can download subtitles in the UI. On Xbox you cant stream movies with Kodi from a server, only from USB-disk. No SMB support.

Yes, i guess that´s because the Shield can direct play/stream from the Plex server which means no transcoding on the server is required.

During playback, you can check what´s going on on the Plex server. Have a look at status=>now playing in the Plex server web interface.

I guess it says "direct play/direct stream" when the Shield is playing and "transcoding" when the XBox is playing.
