smp Is it possible to do a new SMP HDR build please? It’s 4 months today since your last published build and there's been many updates to LE 11 and Kodi since then.
I’m using your Feb HDR build on two NUCs but both have intermittent issues with music library scanning and reboot when navigating around Kodi libraries. I’m hoping a new build will solve those.

Da Flex Your previous post that mentioned HDR in latest nightlies got me excited. I was intending giving it a try. Maybe the 6th Gen NUC isn’t supported?
This reminds me to thank smp again for his HDR builds. Thanks! I’ve been getting HDR for over 12 months now and it makes 4K really pop on my LG OLEDs. I couldn’t go back to SDR after seeing HDR.
The last build by SMP was February 17th vs LE nightly (the alpha current build).
If you look at Kodi code on GitHub you can see all the Kodi changes since 17th Feb:
So maybe this is the reason?
No it isn’t. That post was not correct.
Have you set your video output to sync with input rate? This must be done for DTS pass-through.
EDIT: I just noticed the OP has a new link/build. I will test that later today. This post refers to the original SMP build linked on OP.
I can report an issue I get using this build (on both my NUCi3BEH systems).
I play a lot of multichannel music (albums and concerts) and often after playing a file with an Atmos stream, when I play one with DTS-HDMA there is no sound output to my AVRs.
The only fix is to reboot the NUC, then play the DTS-HDMA file.
This issue also occurs if I watch a 4K Atmos movie then a 4K DTS-HDMA movie.
hernandito This is LibreElec on Intel with HDR thread. Stock LE 10 does not do HDR on Intel (yet).
Working very well on my NUC8i3BEH NUCs (x 2) via 1GBE to Synology NAS.
I tested 4K HDR movies with Atmos and DTS-HDMA and multichannel music (FLAC and Atmos .M4A).
Thanks again for these HDR builds!
Also, it seems to have a fix for subtitles on HDR - they seem less-crazy-bright anyway
Nice!
Thanks for your post. Always good to get an insight!
the necessary bits are not at kodi or ffmpeg yet
I noticed ffmpeg 5 was released a couple days back. Do you know if this adds the HDR support needed by Kodi?
I read ages ago the Intel HDR Linux code worked for NUC6 and later (hence SMPs builds work on your NUC6).
I hope smp does one more (new Atmos fixes in Kodi). His last one from October is still in use here with only issues: some Atmos releases have audio skips and interlaced video not playing with same settings as HDR, but I can work around that easily and I don’t have much interlaced media.
All nightly Generic images are GBM
And HDR now too?
There seems to be ongoing HDR work for LibreElec’s RPi build at the moment so I guess we’ll see generic x86 HDR in official test builds soon (I hope).
In the mean time, smp did a recent HDR build of his generic LE version which you can find here on this thread:
I’m using this on two Intel NUC8i3BEK NUCs successfully.
If you are in the mood for some experimental testing here's a first LE11 testbuild with 10/12bit output support
Does this mean we’ll see LE11 HDR testbuilds for generic (Intel) versions soon too?
smp There is a new Kodi Atmos fix that resolves audio skipping in certain files and I’m hoping you could do a new HDR (SMP) build with this fix please?
This was merged 5 days ago.

Hey Ken.
Here is a very recent SMP HDR build done just before Kodi 19.3 was released that works for my NUC8:
