Force remux from MKV to MP4 - pythagosaurus69 - 2024-03-14

Hi all,

It turns out LG OLEDs don't play Dolby Vision from MKV containers and it falls back to the HDR10 layer, whereas with MP4 the TV will correctly read the Dolby Vision data. This requires a remux of the container from MKV to MP4 which can easily be done using the commandline, but is a little tedious with Sonarr and Radarr automating everything.

Is it possible to have some sort of feature that forces Jellyfin to remux MKV to MP4?

Cheers

There is already an ongoing effort for this: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/10469
