Apple TV+ Severance in the US - all HEVC downloads are Dolby Vision for me

[Dog]

I think this started around Feb. 20th. Before then I could get HDR10/HDR10+ in h265, but starting with 2x06 of Severance I started getting only Dolby Vision with h265, regardless of selection in the download interface. I've double-checked my settings and selections but continue to get the same result - even selecting SDR results DV. I can get SDR by selecting h264, but I'd like to get HDR in h265 if it's available.

Not sure if there's a problem on my end, I'm doing something wrong, if Apple is only serving DV, or if it's a DVDFab issue. Has anyone had a similar problem, or can someone verify this?

I get Severance.s02e05 + s02e06 in x265 HDR10 (no DV when not selected)








Can you post your StreamFab.log to compare?

Just tried again this morning with 6.2.3.4 - h265, HDR/HDR10+, attempt 4K (knowing I won't get 4K), Atmos audio (English), English subs. US server from within US, no VPN. Same result.

6.2.3.4 was a downloaded-installer upgrade from 6.2.3.3, which was a downloaded-installer upgrade from 6.2.2.2, etc, going back several versions. No online upgrades. The only other service I'm having problems with is Netflix (not getting 1080p), but I feel mostly confident that issue is not related to this issue (haven't looked into that yet).

Fresh log attached.

Exactly this caused the problem ..

SF is looking for best offer and choose "Dolby Vision" for me too
(without "Generate Downlad Report")

You need to choice a real HDR10+ offered resolution:

That was the exact solution. Thank you!
