... it is not as wonderful as I hoped it would be.

So, proper HDR10 UHD is currently a no go with libreelec.

Does it work with Windows 10?

...Okay. Thanks for your answer. Will a libreelec 9 pc with nvidia gpu (e.g. gtx1030) support 4k HDR10?

Would be nice if you could give me a quick answer.

Hello

is there any chance to get HDR working?

I bought the new NUC7I3DNH2E and all looks fine.

4k @ 60hz work

HD-Sound work

HDMI-CEC work

HDR not working...

TV: LG B7D 55"

AV Receiver: Denon AVR-X3400H

Did you try Libreelec i as well? The milhouse-builds?

This means that in libreelec 9 there is NO apollo lake / kaby lake 4K HDR10 support so far?

It is quite hard to get a reliable answer on that, yesterday it sounded like it is supported.

Quote from chewitt

Milhouse builds have been running for months, but video code is still being actively written so no guarantees of speedy support; Kodi is still several months from an official Alpha release.

From a comment I saw earlier this evening Amlogic devices that support HDR are doing it via an 8-bit internal conversion process; so not 10-bit and it's probably necessary to keep the processing bandwidth to a management level. The TV still recognises it as HDR though, so the general masses who obsess over the 'pass-through' lights on their AVR blinking appropriately will be happy.

In another thread you were stating that HDR is not working on kaby lake nucs since kernel support is not available yet. I am sort of confused now, is it also not working in libreelec 9 (milhouse)?

... so is HDR working with the kaby lake and apollo lake nucs in the libreelec 9 milhouse builds? I thought this would work.

... just ordered an Intel Apollo Lake NUC 6CAYH solely for libreelec. Didn‘t like the idea to buy an Android device for libreelec 4K HDR...

Are there already LE 9.0 beta test versions for intel nucs available?

And the S912 libreelec versions produce fake HDR?

Sorry, this is all still not clear to me.

Can an Apollo Lake NUC with libreelec play 4K UHD HDR MKVs in full quality? With all bells and whistles? Incl. refresh rate switching?

Or do I need to buy an Minix u9-H for that purpose.

Would be nice if you could help me on that.

Best wishes,

Hi there,

I would like to buy a new box for LibreElec. Here is what the little machine should be able to do:

- automatic refresh rate switching (or even better: automatic resolution switching to always have a source direct output)

- very good upscaling from 1080p to 2160p

- native HEVC with HDR10 support

- DTS-Master and True-HD pass through

- superb picture quality

- fast UI-experience

- a nice remote

Price for the box is less important. Would you suggest an Intel NUC or an Amlogic S912?

Thanks in advnce for your help! !

Hi,

what Mini PC do you recommend to run libreelec with pms? It should be strong enough to do 2 transcodings for ipads in parallel, source files to transcode are uncompressed mkvs derived from blu-rays.

While transcoding, the libreelec Mini-PC should stay relatively quiet.

What can you recommend?

Thanks,
Chris

Iˋm having the same question.

I´m using an Apollo Lake system with libreelec 8 alpha 10, and have no idea how i can get spotify to work on this system.

Would be nice if someone could help me out on this.

Best,
Chris
