I've noticed that the Plex app on my Nvidia Shield Pro pretty much plays every dolby vision mkv I throw at it without issue. It's very rare that dv isn't triggered the first time. So how is Plex pulling this off with the buggy Shield firmware?

Maybe some workarounds. There's also the possibility that Dolby Visions playback needs more setup than what is currently implemented in these Kodi builds - ie. it needs more work. I've cloned the Exoplayer source code to see if I can gain some insight. Although I've encountered bugs in exoplayer playback as well, they are not as common as what we're seeing here.

I've thought a bit about the timeout settings, and I think one question to ask is why it times out for DV streams and not for others.
