I hope we have some support soon, realizing the MKV standard change is relatively new, but interest in playing Dolby Vision is also very high. One of the members of the Makemkv forum has supplied an APK URL for a version of Exoplayer that can be used by Kodi to play DV titles.

The programmer of Makemkv has made a couple of public domain test files available here:

The really neat thing about this new standard is it retains the HDR layer so that you can play the media on televisions that don't support Dolby Vision.

Plex for Android, 8.8, has been released and supports Dolby Vision in MKV format.

Will MRMC add support? is anyone working on it?

I expect we'll see it in Kodi before Mrmc. This is a shame.
