Hi,
Can Jellyfin transcode a source with HDR (either static or dynamic metadata) to an output also with HDR? Put another way, does HDR survive the transcode and get included in the output? If so, is the outputted HDR static or dynamic? If input is dynamic (HDR10+ or DV), Will the output also be dynamic?
I've tried 3 different clients (Android with a HDR display, iOS iPad with HDR display, windows 11 Jellyfin Media Player output to a HDR display), and all the results look SDR to me. When transcoding, I'm going from a source of 60 - 100mbps to an output of 28mbps (cellular). I use an Intel A310 with quick sync enabled, with tone mapping disabled (I don't want the server to tone map, I want the client display to do that), with AV1 and HEVC hardware enabled.
Many thanks.
