Will it ever be possible to add HDR support?

Lots of video now encoded in HDR (Standard HDR, HDR10+, DV) but of course does not work on JRemote iOS.

Yeah I really hope this is coming soon. Outside of music playback, I don't use JRemote because most of my movie library is UHD.

Currently use Infuse on my iPhone, iPad, and AppleTV connected to my NAS which provides perfect HDR playback including Dolby Vision with a beautiful, intuitive, fast interface. But no syncing with Media Center so annoying to pick up where I left off.

What is the secret to streaming audio and video from MC33 to my iPad. The Remote app works great for controlling my HTPC.

I switch from Player to This Device and can apparently still see all my files. But when I add something to the playlist, nothing happens.

The device zone can play files in a mp4 container natively (h.264 and hevc). They need to have the MOOV atom at the beginning of the file, if they don't you need to change them so they do. (it makes the mp4 streamable). You can use ffmpeg or others to do that if necessary.
Other formats need to be transcoded by MC. You choose the quality level in the setting for the server in JRemote. Transcoding is not an instantaneous process, it depends on server speed. Often it will take several seconds to start.
