    ok since you want to keep your logs

    search through the server log, look for entries marked "Reason", as in TranscodeReason; this will tell you why things transcode, video, audio, subtitle not supported
    ffmpeg logs will tell you if there were any errors as well as which streams were Copy and which were re-encoded giving you a clear picture of what the client is receiving

    if you find the client is receiving streams that it *should* be able to play the compare on the client when using libvlc to separate server fault from client
    if libvlc works then it's an issue with exoplayer, if not then the encoding settings on your server should be changed
    if it's the latter then disable hevc encoding on the server to start with

    if it's transcoding and you don't think it should be the log will still tell you reason

    as far as the sony tv getting scaled and nvidia not, nvidia is correctly identified as capable of 4k and does not need scaled down video, since there is no setting currently to force scaling (the pr i mentioned) you will not be able to get scaled video to the shield
