Forcing HDR in transcode possible?

Post by wurstpistole »

Hi,
I got my new LG TV today and it supports HDR. What it doesn't support is DTS, which makes me unable to stream files directly without transcoding - I have to transcode them so audio gets converted. This again disables HDR though.
I have one 4K MKV here that is HDR and when I play it with no transcoding, it runs in HDR, but there's no audio because it's DTS.
When I transcode, I've got audio, but no HDR.
Is there any setting or flag to set that will enable both - transcoding audio and playing HDR video?
