Hey Guys,
i‘ve got a Netflix WEB-DL File with DV and HDR10 Fallback which only plays in HDR10 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max with iOS 18 RC and the newest Infuse Version. Infuse recognizes the File as DV, but i only hear the Audio and picture stays black, everything is normal when i turn off the Dolby Vision Toggle in the Playback Options.

Same to me.

Unfortunately, there are some rare Profile 8 Dolby Vision videos that Apple devices simply won’t be able to handle properly, so in these cases disabling Dolby Vision for these files is recommended.

There may be improvements added by Apple in future versions of iOS/tvOS, but it’s hard to say if/when these may be added.
