I'm not sure where exactly does the problem lay, so I'll will explain the situation as detailed as possible, in hope that someone will have some clue.
I am trying to play a 4K HDR HEVC file through the desktop client (on a laptop with non HDR monitor). No transcoding is being used, just direct playback (verified).
I've read that Jellyfin Media Player is using MPV, so I put a mpv.conf file with the parameters that I'm using with my MPV player. (I verified that the config file is being read)
My config parameters:
hwdec=vaapi
vo=gpu-next
hdr-compute-peak=no
tone-mapping=mobius
target-peak=100
I've noticed the following problems: The playback is laggy and there is something wrong with the highlights (maybe related, maybe not). The exact same problems can be observed both on Linux and Windows. (The lag is also there, maybe even worse, without changing any configs)
MPV / Jellyfin MPV shim
Jellyfin Media Player (the same mpv.conf)
There is nothing wrong with the hardware as I tried streaming the file through jellyfin mpv shim and the playback is behaving the same way as being played locally with mpv. (smooth playback, no problem with highlights)
My only idea is that maybe there are some other configs that are interfering?
