[Dreambox One] HDR to SDR conversion (tonemapping)

    • New

    Hello to everybody!

    I want to avoid the washed out effect on one of my displays. Is this possible with LibreELEC? I can't find it. Maybe Dreambox is not capable of tone mapping to SDR.

    I have about a dozen devices and only one can do tone mapping to SDR, and thats a Banana Pi M5 with CoreELEC, i dont think LibreELEC can do it on any device.

    Not shure if my Shield Pro 2019 can do it since i only use it for DV.

    The Amlogic S922X chip in DreamBox I/II devices have HDR to SDR conversion capabilties in hardware, but software support for this is not currently implemented in the upstream Linux kernel used with the AMLGX image.

    Kodi supports forced tonemapping in Windows and Android devices should support it subject to underlying hardware support. The Shield does handle conversion. Linux support for colorimetry changes in upstream kernels is currently rather limited. CE images that use Amlogic vendor kernels should support conversion, but CE is someone else's problem (we don't track their releases or state) so you need to visit their forum for info.
