Unable to enable TrueTheater HDR

I have both an Asus ROG Strix GTX1080 and an LG OLED55C6V TV which both support all the necessary requirements for HDR playback. I have also made sure to enable HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Colour (LG's name for HDR) on my TV. Yet despite this, PowerDVD17 as well as the Cyberlink Ultra HD Blu-Ray Advisor both state that I have neither an HDCP 2.2 compatible GPU/Display or an HDR Compatible GPU/Display.

Now I know for certain that the display is HDR Compatible having used my Playstation 4 Pro to play HDR Enabled games like 'Horizon: Zero Dawn' and 'Uncharted 4' and everything I've read tells me that my GPU should be HDR compatible as well, so could someone please tell me why PowerDVD doesn't seem to think they are?

All help is appreciated and thanks in advance

Just a partial answer: The Advisor is here to test your PC's capability of UHD Blu-ray playback, not to test individual components. Currently, only integrated GPUs and onboard HDMI outputs may be used for UHD BD playback. That is why any discrete GPU fails the test, regardless of its specifications. .

this is because powerdvd cannot play on separate gpu like gtx 1070

True theatre HDR enhancement does not appear on 2160p files. It only appears for 1080p and 720p files. For a 4k file, its greyed out.
