I’m looking for some advice please.
I have hundreds of movies stored in a MKV format on a Synology NAS drive, many of which are ripped from Ultra HD Blurays and with preserved wide colour gamut BT2020 and HDR.
I play back the files via KODI on my Nvidia Shield 2019 which is connected to my Marantz 7011.
The Marantz then hooks up to a HD Fury Vertex which feeds the HDMI to my LG B8 OLED (signal is passed through) and my JVC HD750 projector (signal is auto downscaled).
All the files look amazing on my OLED and the Vertex does a great job scaling to the PJ and HD material still looks great, but my issue is that the UHD MKVs look completely washed out on the PJ as it is only capable of playing them at REC 709.
I’m wondering how best to address this issue short of buying a replacement PJ which I can’t justify for a couple of years yet.
Are there any settings I can utilise in the HD Fury Vertex for example? I don’t mind spending a few hundred pounds on alternative equipment to see me through.
Any suggestions on solutions?
