I bought a Rocktek G2 to try it out. The Mezzmo client has a * by all of the movies and doesn't play them in HDR. It uses the generic Mezzmo Android TV device profile. Do you have a device profile for the Rocktek G2 (which I know supports HDR)?

Ok. So I had to manually turn off transcoding and that fixed my weird HDR issue and the * next to the file name.
Now onto the next weird issue. The fast forward and rewind do not work.

If you are using the Mezzmo Android app then use that profile, not a hardware profile. Disabling transcoding allows the streams to passthrough without any changes which is why HDR returned. It is unlikely HDR will be supported with transcoding, even with a future ffmpeg v6.0+

Please try installing the Mezzmo Android app to see if fast forward and rewind work. Otherwise try installing the VLC player app.

I am using the Mezzmo Android app when FF and RW do not work. I will try the VLC Player app and let you know.Originally Posted by Peter

What profile are you using ? It shouldn't be doing that.
Also, as an FYI, LibreElec supports Rocktek G2 but that moves you from Android to Linux and Kodi. I am not sure if this device is to be dedicated to Mezzmo or other things. Android to LibreElec is pretty much a one-way street where reloading Android is difficult.
I am going to add a section on the Mezzmo Kodi addon performance page for client testing / support which may help folks pick boxes.

So I tried to use the VLC player app to test, since the Mezzmo Android app (which I have a paid copy of) doesn't allow FF and RW. VLC player doesn't even see my files. I go to Local Network - UPNP and see my Mezzmo server. But when I go down to Videos it tells me that there are no videos to play. The Mezzmo Android app sees the stuff just fine.
