Firestick 4K Max - Major Issues

[tmsrxzar]

I'm having same problem on roku streaming stick 4k and on my new sony bravia a80l (running andriodtv)

exoplayer can't seem to handle 4k hdr on these devices. no problem running in vlc(experimental) on android client... screwed on roku sadly.

Strangest part is roku will run fine for 20-40 minutes then just randomly start crashing out.

My only thought is I have been using my AMD GPU(AMD AMF) for transcoding (this shouldn't need to transcode) I am going to try switching to QSV just in case it is and see if that helps resolve.

since roku is RokuOS and RokuOS is not Android i don't see there being any valid comparisons
and i find it hard to believe roku has the google android based exoplayer too but google doesn't give me an answer
