Sorry, don’t mean to beat a dead horse but what’s the best currently available Plex client all things considered?

    Gotta agree with you then, the Shield is looking like the best option. Crazy how a 4 year old device has held up so well

      There would be way more options if more companies purchased all the Dolby licenses, but they’re really stingy about it. Even the Nvidia Shield, which is commonly hailed as the best streaming device for its great library of native support, has limitations in that it can only play Dolby Vision profile 5 and most versions of profile 7. Those two profiles are the industry standard, though.

      I’ve had mostly good experiences streaming Plex on the Shield so far, so I personally recommend it. ATV 4K is right up there too, except it requires the infuse app for lossless audio and it strips the spatial contents out of lossless audio formats.
