has nothing to do with mkv, it's just a container format and fully supports DV
has everything to do with DV supported by your client device (LG C2)
afaik jellyfin transcoding does not retain dolby vision so no transcoding will not help
there are 3 main profiles of DV, 5,7 and 8, a lot of devices fail to play profile 7 which is mainly used by 4k bluray
need to find out what profiles your TV supports and what client is being used
if using the LG app directly on the TV then im pretty sure it's just a web wrapper and very unlikely to support DV *at all*
need to find out if LG is being transcoded
potentially setup tonemapping on the server
in summary, it's your chosen client software and client device not mkv or the server
