Direct Play 4K HDR Remux Blocky Artifacts

Hey guys,

Recently i've setup a new Unraid Server hosting a Plex server.

Playback of a 4K HDR Remux MKV of a 55Mbps Data rate movie is presenting me with blocky artifacts.

I'm using my shield to direct play the file and its fine for 1080p content, just 4K HDR files seem to be the problem. Anyone have any input?

Things i've tried

Shield tv as plex server accessing the file via SMB, same problem

Unraid Plex server ,shield tv as client, same problem.

    It's artefacts? If so, it might be your mkv file is bad or plex have issues with the file. 

    If it was too slow network, plex should have said something about it. 

    Try playing it on something else or use another software.
