WebOS can't decode 4K HDR with direct streaming - kaman - 2024-02-25
I'm trying to playback 4k video on webos tv, there is 2 4k hdr hevc files, plays one at transcoding and one at direct play (i dont know why it does this) (since im streaming from a powerful pc and only me watching no problem), transcoding is fine but direct play always stutters. this may be a issue about tv's hevc decoder but idk. i just want to force transcoding so it will play fine like other video.
note: when i select 1080p 10mpbs it says it transcodes because of limited speed, because i limited speed to 3mpbs to force encoding, but it still seems to direct play at 4k 120mpbs

That quality selector only sets the maximum allows bit rate before it triggers transcoding to keep it under that limit. Setting it to 120Mbps doesn't change the original video if the original video is below 120Mbps.
Can you show us the media info for each of these videos? The media info from the Jellyfin interface is preferred.
