Hello everyone,
I'm using Kodi 15.2 under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (custom CLI installation with added X11).
I recently bought a new TV and read about the advantages of using a Limited RGB Range (16-235) all the way through the home cinema so that there's no intermediate range compression or expanding taking place.
I successfully set Kodi (Settings -> System -> Video) and my TV to the Limited Range.
My question is: Do I have to set this up for anything else on my PC like the Nvidia display driver (nvidia-current) or X11?
Although I have no problem with controlling a CLI Ubuntu installation, I'm no Linux video expert and have no idea how the whole process takes place. Maybe Kodi already talks to the display driver itself so that setting the checkbox in Kodi already did the whole job?
Thanks for input on this!
