[x86-64][CroqueMr Builds] Dolby Vision w/FEL, HDR10+, and 3D

    Quote from Vertox

    Just curious, will these changes also improve subtitle positioning, especially when switching between different aspect ratios?

    As long as the subs are the kind that can be positioned (and not baked in) it should be possible to keep them above the video instead of them being half in/out of the letterbox.

    Found a bug I think.

    Download sample tested here.

    Can you send me the log please? And do you use any addon?

    It's weird you don't seem to have the image freeze when a subtitle and GUI is present on the screen at the same time like I do. I am on AMD 8845S and AMD 780M.

    Welcome to my world, AMD and Intel are very different, an optimizarion for intel can be a regression for AMD. And in each brand you have a lot of different GPU with their own issue.

    The ability to zoom in on any video has been a feature in Kodi for quite some time; that’s nothing new.
    What is new—at least for me—is that this zoom function no longer works with videos that use Dolby Vision. For all other videos (those without Dolby Vision), zooming continues to work without any issues. ;)

    And as I mentioned before, zooming in on Dolby Vision videos is possible in CE-22, which is why I’m hopeful that it might also be possible here in LE.

    BTW:
    And let’s not forget, amidst all the discussion about subtitle or GUI issues when zooming:
    "You don’t *have* to zoom—but if you’d like to, the option is there." :)

    This is feature I'm also using extensively and it's a big factor to change from am6b+ to x64 platform..

    Had many fight about it on other forums/boards hearing I'm destroying picture quality, not 1:1 pixel representation on my screen but gosh! If I paid for 83" TV I wanna watch 83!😁🤪

    CroqueMr did you figure out why the display outputs to my laptop screen rather than tv ? Were the logs I gave helpful? Do u need more logs? Any update ?

    Thanks.

    I am rebuilding and optimizing completely the engine, it will be finished tomorrow then I will start to check your log and fix other small issues.

    Sorry, here it is. But, here's the interesting thing... the issue disappears when logging is enabled. No faint media icons visible at the bottom (as in the video I shared before), and no loss of forced sub after skipping around.

    Oh, the only add-on I'm using is for this custom skin.

    Thank you, very strange I will try to reproduce this glitch.

    CroqueMr , if it can help find the issue, I went back from beta5 to beta4 and the freeze when PGS subtitles + any GUI is on the screen at the same time4 was still there. Then I went back to Beta3 before the L5 fix with the cutted out GUI and the freeze is not there anymore. Maybe it has something to do with L5? Do you want a log of when it freezes?

    between release A LOT of things changed maybe the fix behind L5 is an issue but I don't think so I need to investigate. I think you already sent me a log when your screen is frozen, if it's not the case yes please send me a log and the best is to use the Beta 5 Debug for your log :)

    CroqueMr I've been testing your beta5 on my i3 12100, more than enough power I think...

    Two things I would like to ask:

    • Would be possible to have a switch to turn off L2 blocks like Hades build does?. Some projectors, like my Hisense PX1 Pro, have problems handling L2 trims and blacks are washed on some movies.

    • I've a NVIDIA Shield TV 2019 remote, it pairs successfully over Bluetooth, and all buttons initially work. However, the connection repeatedly drops and reconnects. I've a ASRock B660 ITX/ac which uses Intel Wireless-AC 3168 for both WiFi and Bluetooth, on Windows, connection with the remote is rock solid, but that's not the case for LibreELEC (it hapens also on Hades build), maybe an old drivers in Linux?

      Code
      Bus 001 Device 004: ID 8087:0aa7 Intel Corp. Wireless-AC 3168 Bluetooth
      Code

    Thanks your work on this.

    I did not send any logs no so here is one with a lot of freezing and talking in a scene. Beta5-Debug log.
