Gemini is actually "Gen 9.5". It has Gen 10 display block, that's why we have a working HDR on those SoCs.
Btw, their next generation low power SoC (Tremont/Jasper Lake/Elkhart Lake) is inferior as far as video playback is concerned. It does not support high quality deinterlacing (MADI, MCDI) and it can only do BOB DI.
Tiger Lake SoC looks awesome (Gen12 GPU, can do AV1 in hardware) but it's expensive.
this build is based off kodi v19 beta1?
Yes, current Kodi master
You can use the image from post #258.
I compiled a build with new LSPCON patches and new Kodi drmprime stuff from lrusak's branch. Maybe worth a try.
I assume that by using Windows and full drivers it should work.
I suppose it will work in Windows.
Regarding Linux - it's not yet clear when HDR will work on LSPCON.
Buy something that have native HDMI 2.0 e.g. Intel Gemini Lake or Tiger Lake. The new Tiger Lake SoCs look very promising for HTPC usage.
and gives HDR10 output?
No.
Thanks! I tried to build from both branches.

I don't expect all addons that were built for x11/GL to work on GBM/GLES though.
Do you have a fork with your commits?

Had to use an older version of Kodi (from before recent changes in drm prime) because Kwiboo's patches don't apply anymore.

This version have drm does this mean it will might have support for netflix 4k with inputhelper ?
No. DRM = Direct Rendering Manager.
I did compile. I suppose pre-compiled Kodi 19 addons from other sources may not work with this build, especially the binary ones.
vfs.rar didnt find my rar files like Millhouse build did.
You need to reboot or restart kodi after installing vfs.rar.
Do you also have vfs.libarchive that i can try with?
But i have a question how do i get my vfs unrar back?
You mean the vfs.rar addon? https://www.dropbox.com/s/3yd99q2fg802….0.0.1.zip?dl=1

I know nothing about osx but I doubt it will work natively. You can use a VM with a Linux as a guest OS.
Yes.
I forgot to mention that if you want to compile a custom 9.2.6 (stable) build run
"git checkout libreelec-9.2" before making changes.
Otherwise it will compile from a master branch (kodi 19).
