DVDFab Player 5.0.0.4 HDR, External subtitles issue and TV-mode Intel NUC 7i7BNH

[moonmoon]

Hello!

First of all, great player! All films ive tested started and worked. (4k UHD ISO, 4k MKV, 1080 MKV)

But i got some minor issues listed below:
1: When playing 4k ISO and load external subtitles, it will not show. It shows "loaded" in the information but it wont show up. External subtitles works with 4k MKV and 1080 MKV.

2: When "testing the system" in DCDFab and HDR disabled in Win10 it will say "HDR: NO", when i manually activate HDR in Win10 DVDFab says "HDR: Intel". Will i have to manually activate HDR in Win10 every time i watch 4k HDR material? PowerDVD does this automaticly.

3: When in "TV-mode" and trying to browse folders, i wont get the last row of files visible, also when starting film, it will be "off center", meaning "all the black" wich should be on top and on bottom of the film is on top.

Im usin a Intel Nuc 7i7BNH with Kaby Lake.

Best Regards

--UPDATE: we will add support for external subtitles in the near future, please kindly wait.

--Just to confirm, did you Enable HDR in Settings window?

Also, what is the displaying device and its resolution? Projector or TV?

HDR setting is set to AUTO in DVDFAB. HDR will works if i enable HDR in Windows 10 manually.( But this is not the way it should be, right?)

Hopefully they will get it working soon to output correct metadata so the "hdr" will be enabled as it should. What system are you using?

Problem is not solved in version 5.0.0.5. I am running windows 10 v1709.
I have to manually activate hdr under dispaly settings in windows 10 to get dvdfab recocnize my system as hdr capable.

When activated in windows 10 manually, the player will show "hdr". When not, it will to hdr-sdr.

Powerdvd have the HDR activated automaticly in full screen exclusive mode, i cant se such a setting?
