LE11 Nightly cannot play HDR10 files anymore. Spinning cogwheel.

  • Hi LE crew,

    Since updating to LE11 nightly, most of my HDR10 files aren't playing anymore on my HDR Projector. When I start the movie, the cogwheel keeps spinning and nothing happens. The Kodi remote says it's playing though. Weird...

    Strangely, when I turn off the projector and play the file on my (older) non-HDR Sony TV, the files play without issues. So it must be something with HDR then.

    Any suggestions? I already tried fiddling with the whitelist, but to no success.

    I can provide a log, but I never done that so I need to figure out how to generate it.

    Cheers,

    Rob

  • Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link
  • Hi guys, hi chewitt,

    It turned out the issue was due to my AVR. It had to do with the HDMI AMP setting which controls if the HDMI input routs audio to only the AMP or AMP + TV. The latter made LE cause the issue and was set for some reason. Don't know why.

    After setting it back to AMP, playback worked again.
