If they fail ... we need to invest in a "allow list" approach, sadly (new word for blacklist I was told, from someone writing from a foxcon IPhone claming I would support slavery).
For my Sony X950G with latest v6.4960 firmware and v19.0b2 installed I can confirm that all sample files from this page work and activate Dolby Vision mode. On this page the Profile 5 samples work properly in Dolby Vision but the Profile 8.1 samples only playback as HDR10.
I suspect that any Sony TV using the MT5893 SoC is going to work just fine if the X950G works.
