Dolby Vision being blocked Xbox One S with 4K discs

Hi I have a Xbox series x with a Dolby vision compatible tv also will the allow Dolby vision playback selected in settings on and it still only displays in HDR only when playing 4k blu rays ? I have set it 4k 60hz and the games display in Dolby vision plus streaming apps but not 4k disc playback! Is this correct that the xbox series can’t do this ?

The Xbox does not use True Dolby Vision technology. They use a software version of it. The only thing the Xbox is capable of streaming in Dolby Vision is Netflix. Disc will play in HDR10 if your TV is compatable. Such a bummer since one of the major advantages
of the Xbox over the PS4 was the 4K disc playing ability.

The big one is HDR format. There are two Dolby Vision and HDR10. Xbox One S only supports HDR10 for now.
