First things first - Are there recommended settings anywhere for MrMC and HDR? I want to rule out any settings I may have altered in the past.

I'm using Plex integration, but I have transcoding turned off in MrMC. In Plex for the Shield or Roku TV, I see a similar issue if video is transcoding - If I force Direct Play (or change to AC3 audio track for Direct Play), HDR works consistently. Changing the audio on the fly does not seem to help trigger HDR within MrMC.

Starting an HDR movie from the beginning will trigger HDR about 50% of the time (using the same movie as a test). If I RESUME a movie (again, using same movie as a test), HDR will trigger about 10% of the time.

I'm not home to get logs at the moment... I also have not tested directly playing any of the files (removing Plex from equation).

**Quick Edit*** I have tried multiple movies with the same results, however for testing purposes I used the same one repeatedly.

The only thing that I can think of which might influence would be the display rate change delay. It too short, we might be messing up any timing the firmware relies on.

But then if you scroll down a few notches and then back up to the top and try again, it now works and brings you to the bottom of the list. Every time after that then it works, until the app has been relaunched and you have to do it again.

By design, lists will not autowrap to keep short lists from zipping round and round on a fast swipe. The behavior is you can fast swipe to the top/bottom, then the next swipe will wrap around. There's a timeout of 1/2 second.

Okay. I understand that, but I guess it's different when you're tapping and not swiping. It's not consistent. The delay only seems to happen the first time I do it. Then other times no matter how long I wait it will not wrap around until I tap down first and then back up.

I'm also hearing the boop noise sometimes not play after it wraps around. It seems to happen mostly on the side menu. If I tap to the top and then it wraps to the bottom and I keep tapping up, the noise stops until I tap down.
