Hi I played same Netflix acoount (Premium ) Dolby vision Movie on the same LG G4 TV (LG OLED evo AI G4 65 (165 cm) 4K Smart TV 2024),
it play properly with Dolby vision.

If I play same movie on xtream4 box same Netflix account , it plays as Simple HDR , so this confirms xstrem4 still doesn't support Dolby vision and HDR+.

XStream Box does support dolby vision but as i mentioned on custom made OTT apps for various DTH Smart Boxes, there r certain limitations as far as availability of such features across various content is concerned bcoz of different technical or contract/licensing or agreement related issues including keeping costs under check

Not sure 'custom made OTT ', I think we both are out of sync the point I am discussing is, the common OTT apps?

No OTT platforms do customise their apps for Smart Android Boxes of various operators and feature availability varies as compared to Android TV app

In general, every app company release their version app (Netflix , prime, zee5, Sonylive ect.) per OS, for example Android os, webOS , fireOS , ect.. , then STB box company ( say Airtel, Tata, fire stick, apple) based their OS and need to support features ( say Dolby Atmos, Dolby vision, HDR+ ) , theen they design their Hardware, then test and release? This is my understanding, do you think any other process?

That is why I asked you did Airtel tell this box will support Dolby Vision
