Try swapping hdmi cables. Also are you running the latest nightly? V11

Yeah over on GitHub they’ve identified that they need to add the additional video codec flags into mesa. Hopefully soon so amd users can have HW acceleration

I just ran VAINFO from the console and it returned this

It looks like it is missing the profiles for HEVC etc.

Have you got hardware acceleration checked in LE in the Player section in Settings. Try enabling/disabling it and see what results you get.

Yeah i do, i checked all that. I just ran VAINFO from the console and it returned this

Looks like its missing some profiles.

I also noticed, when attempting to play a 4K HDR video it will output colors incorrectly. However while playing if i press "\" on the keyboard the video seems to switch resolution / refresh rate and it will prompt to keep the setting. I press no, it then switched resolution / refresh rate back and the video is now outputting correctly in the right colourspace.

However it still says ff-hevc(sw) is this correct? i thought it would have said ff-hevc (hw)

So I just built a Ryzen 5600g system. It’s doing the same thing. It will not output HDR correctly unless while playing a video I press “\” and then the system switches resolution it appears and it asks me to keep the setting. I go no and then it switched back and HDR is outputting correctly.

I also noticed even though I disabled mouse control in the Kodi settings. When I play a video I can see the mouse until I press the “\” and once outputting correctly I don’t see it.

Also should it be saying ff-hevc (sw) ?

I've also uploaded the Log

Hi,

I built a new Ryzen 5600g system with the Asus B550i ITX motherboard.

When I play any file it appears to be using software decoding. Also HDR is not triggering. I’ve pasted a log and was wondering if someone could have a look?

My chain looks like this: Asus PN51 running LE -> Denon x1700h -> LG C1. The same issue is present if I cut out the AVR.

The file is streamed from my emby library. I've attached the media info for one of the files that exhibit this issue.

Really should paste a log to see what’s happening.

Do you have match frame rate turned on in the Kodi player settings?

Quote from Hakuren

The screen does not switch to HDR when it first loads the stream. So the procedure I mentioned is the only way for me to force HDR, otherwise it will keep playing in SDR. So when I do switch from a playing video to the home screen it will recognize the HDR and switch the display.

What’s the source your playing from?

I am running the 20221101 generic nightly with an AMD Ryzen 3 5300U.

I am able to get HDR working but only if I start a video with hdr, press the menu button to get back to the kodi main menu, then back to the playing video. Is there a known workaround for this?

That’s how it should work? The main menu shouldn’t be in HDR and really you shouldn’t set the resolution to 4K for the menu.

So it should be in SDR 1080p for menu. Then when u play a video switch to 4K HDR etc.

I haven’t used a RPI4. However I have a JVC projector and a lumagen. The intel Nuc 12 works fine with HDR. However will not correctly output HDR10+ files. Also will not output 4k60 HDR content at the moment either.

I’m currently building a Ryzen system to compare.

Hi,

Does anyone know if this motherboard is supported?

ASUS ROG Strix B550-I Gaming ITX Motherboard

Essentially the 2.5gb intel lan?

Hahaha sounds like something I would do lol

Hi,

I’ve noticed that the current nightly build on intel is outputting HDR10+ files in Rec709 instead of BT2020.

I’m not interested in the dynamic metadata for HDR10+. However it should be outputted in BT2020 colourspace instead of Rec709

HDR10+ is backwards compatible with HDR10.

Is there a way of forcing this to BT2020? When we play HDR10+

Hi,

I have a new Intel Nuc 12, plugged into a lumagen pro then into my JVC X5900. On the current nightlies HDR works fine for most titles. However some, Star Trek Into Darkness as an example will only output in SDR709. Other movies work fine.

It’s like it doesn’t know what to do with the file, I’m thinking maybe it’s HDR10+? Anyway I’ve posted my log here.

Has anyone tried these builds with AMD APU?

I'm using the a NUC 11 (Essential Kit NUC11ATKC2) on LE 11 official nightly 20221120 and everything runs pretty well.

The only real issue at the moment is with broken 4K 10bit HDR 50 frames (vaapi decoder) support.

These files/streams are not playing at the moment (only audio plays after some seconds).

I've no issue with other 4K 10bit HDR files/streams as long as they don't have 50 frames.

Prime decoder is disabled all the time.

I don’t think HDR10+ files are working either.

I find the current builds for intel are a little unreliable and don’t always switch to HDR. I think HDR10+ files or DV files with HDR base layer upset it.
