But the thing is I still want to enjoy Dolby/HDR when I use Netflix so by choosing SDR won’t this make it worse quality ?
Also I noticed slight lag/delay with audio video sync
The testing sped is it good enough ? Or is it too low ?
Using SMB from my MacBook Pro I sit in front of TV and router
It’s like 8-10 feet from the couch
That’s why you select “Match Dynamic Range” to on. That will switch to HDR when needed and when you are looking as SDR video it will go back to SDR.
You still haven’t said what protocol you’re using, the speed you said seems low but without knowing what protocol it’s difficult to say what to do to improve it.
True but I think other OLED owners prefer that to save life of the screen. But if you don’t care as much you can set to HDR or Dolby vision. Also sometimes when specific windows show up in HDR or dv it can be too bright all of a sudden.
Based on your Speedtest you probably have some issues with the WiFi. If possible use Ethernet for best performance. Most likely higher bitrate items will buffer.
I just hooked Apple TV to router with Ethernet cable getting 650-700Mbps with speed test to the router usb 3 flash driv e
Still feel some kind of audio video sync lag
You may want to try changing the SMB settings in the share from “Auto” to either SMB2 or Legacy.
Keep in mind the speedtest app tests your internet speed where the Infuse speed test simulates the needed process for streaming video. so the numbers will be lower in Infuse.
One big issue I see in your graph you posted is the wild rapid swings in speed so something is up there with your local net settings.
You can review the users guide for some trouble shooting and other info.
Ok I will try to copy from MacBook to network drive (usb flash drive attached to router) and the play from there as I’m getting 600-700Mbps this way with fusion
Also which protocol is the best to use on a router usb flash drive ? There are many? One in particular you recommend ? Or test one by one? Or just stick to one I’m using ftp as it’s fast as hell
Also using a flash drive like that (router) and getting those speeds 600-700
Is that faster/equivalent to performance/quality I’ll get plugging the flash drive to tv and playing directly ?
It’s usually best to keep the Match Content options enabled as this will allow Infuse to switch the video output to match the content being played. With these enabled, the default video output can be set to whatever you want (including Dolby Vision, if you prefer that).
There is also a bug which can appear in some cases if you are playing SDR content and have the Apple TV manually set to something else (with dynamic range matching disabled). This is currently under investigation, and you can follow the thread below for updates.
I have done everything as recommended by you guys, enables all options
Using router plugged USB 3 flash drive FTP protocol
Apple TV connected with Ethernet cable
Speed test shows up to 800Mbps stable chart over FTP
I still feel like there’s a lag/latency with audio and video
Basically when people speak and you look at their lips using infuse
How many files are in your shared folder/drive? If it’s the first time that Infuse is indexing that drive, could it be doing work in the background that is stealing bandwidth & reading from different parts of the drive? If this is plausible, I would just be patient, leave it open and connected for a while the first time before attempting playback.
I had similar issues on the Apple TV (non 4K AND 4K) a few years ago, with a hard-wired Ethernet connection to a Mac Mini. Then one day it just worked perfectly (on the non-4K, I had already returned the 4K because of the playback issues). No idea what the underlying cause (or the fix) was.
