Hi everybody,
i tried everything out to activate HDR but it's still grey out! I activate Dolby Vision on the SHIELD (HDMI Settings)! I put my new Sony Bravia to Game Mode. I had a PS5 it worked out on the same HDMI Port.
Any Ideas?
Thank you

Hello @F8Tarnished
The NVIDIA Shield hardware can decode VP9 (the video codec Stadia uses), but only in standard dynamic range – not high dynamic range (profile 2). This is a limitation of the Shield Pro hardware.
Switching from Nvidia Shield Pro to Chromecast Ultra and it works now ![]()
Thank you
Do you have an active Stadia Pro subscription? It's required for HDR.

Good call, I own one and it didn't even cross my mind. It's easy to forget that as powerful and useful as the Shield is even the latest model is based on silicon from an age ago.
Thank you very much i did not know that
So goodbye Nvidia Shield Pro ![]()
Thank you very much but i got a Chromecast Ultra and im very happy with it ![]()
