Having set my TV in 1080p due to being laggy in 4k, will my movies that are 4k be able to play natively (4k) or will they max at 1080p?

    If you specifically set your display in Linux to 1080p then everything including the 4K movie files will be displayed at 1080p.

      OK got it. I set it for 4k.

      Also, does vlc play 4k HDR?

      My TV supports Dolby vision and HDR. Will playing through my PC (vlc - linux mint) get the benefits or should I continue using hard drives plugged directly on the TV?
