Mpv already supports dolby vision
1 comments

Yes, but that support is limited to playback. All it does is pass the Dolby Vision metadata to the output, which means you need a Dolby Vision display to actually use it.
Nope. You don’t need a DV compatible display with the latest MPV. Their latest gpu-next renderer can tonemap DV to SDR or HDR so as you can watch it on an old display.
