Video Player for HDR MP4

[astracd]

Is there any app that can play these videos?

"These videos only work in HDR with the "Samsung Video Library" player (available from Play Store). This will NOT work with any other video player (MX Player, VLC etc.)"

Wondering if possible to get these videos running on OP5.
I try XPlayer and it play it in slow motion even if Playback speed 1/5 or 2

Or is there a way to make Samsung Video Library to install on OP5

Did you try changing build.prop to set the device name to some compatible Samsung device? You could copy relevant values from an S8. Playstore only looks at build.prop when it checks device compatibility.
Or get the APK from apkmirror?
Once you install, it probably won't work, but fret not and post the logs (use aLogCat or Catlog) and we'll figure if any additional libraries are needed.
I managed to play the videos in VLC, the settings: force OpenGL ES2, full acceleration, force YUV2 chroma, skip frames(probably not needed - plays smooth), brightness 100%.

I prefer using VLC, but I search everywhere to find this settings, and cannot find where to set it.
