@mytbyte:

When playing the demos (TV automatically switching to HDR), next to matrix BT.2020 and primaries BT.2020, it says "(says upstream)".
When playing the movies (TV not automatically switching to HDR), next to matrix BT.709 and primaries BT.709, it says "(best guess)".

@brazen1: the CPU seems to be strong enough as it is able to play the demos and the movies without frame drops. With my limited knowledge, it looks as if madVR isn't able to extract the correct metadata from these movie files, while on the other hand the Sony TV app is able to. But that's just a guess.
How can I check whether madVR does a HDR->SDR conversion?
