![]() ![]() The problem is the Dolby Vision encoding. Sorry for my noob-ish replies but hope you guys can help me. So, if my files are DV it’s basically impossible for me to play them without everything being purple and green? I just want the colour to be right and don’t care if it is HDR or Dolby Vision or not. and I just want to watch them without the purple/green colouring that is happening. Just to let you all know, I basically have movies and series in 2160p or 4K etc. Is it possible for it to tone map for SDR? If I pay for this codec, will it even work on my laptop?Ģ.ĝoes that mean I can only use it with this ‘Films & TV’ app? Because I would much rather use SMPlayer, or VLC but only if it can work without freezing, which seems unlikely because it freezes even with regular HD videos.ģ. Download the codec from the Microsoft Store. "To play this video, you need a new codec. I opened my files with the free 'Films & TV' app that I think you just mentioned, it comes for free with Windows, and a pop-up box appeared with this message: But SMPlayer works perfectly and I love the UI and some of it's features it has also. For some reason VLC is lagging and slow as hell for me. I'm not aware of any software players, either free or paid, that can simulate Dolby Vision on an SDR display. They use tone mapping for HDR10 and HLG HDR to simulate HDR on an SDR display but they don't work for Dolby Vision. I have used VLC and the Windows 10/11 Movies and TV App, which are free, for playing video with HDR10 and HLG HDR. If someone could provide a solution for SMPlayer I would be very thankful. I have tried googling this but have not found a relevant thread etc. And also with any other player that I have tried downloading. Regardless, this problem with the colouring happens with both players. VLC player freezes a lot and crashes for some reason. I think maybe something to do with the settings within the app or codec? I know for a fact that there is not a problem with the files at all. This never happens when I am playing HD videos and only sometimes happens when the video is above full HD. This only happens when the files that I am playing are 2160p or above. The video is kind of like black and white with lots of purple and green. Sometimes, but not always, when I try to play a video file that is saved to my computer (Windows 10) the colouring is completely off. ![]()
