Same here (using org.xbmc.kodi_20240402-f653807b-PR24929_arm.ipk) latest build.

I'm using LG C9 and I'm having the same issue with Dolby Vision
My guess is that the issue started after the following PRs were merged

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/24859

So it did work at some point? Have you tried today's nightly? Please try beta 2 to see if this is a regression.


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - oldpainless - 2024-04-03

Not sure, as I went back to rc1 (7th March) and still the same.


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - kimpg89 - 2024-04-03

Dolby Vision playback fails with the latest nightly(org.xbmc.kodi_20240403-51b0ec29-PR24939_arm.ipk), at least in my case
(stops playing after the first 3 seconds)

In beta 2, Dolby Vision played without any issues


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - sundermann - 2024-04-03

@kimpg89 Does the latest rc work to narrow it down more


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - kimpg89 - 2024-04-03

@sundermann
test result...

beta2: worked
beta3: not worked
rc2: not worked

For me, i had rc1 ,rc2, betas and now alpha never worked dolby vision, HDR10 is ok.
Always black screen , profile 5 MP4 works on plex APP, but black screen on Kodi.

Might be helpful for folks to add their LG Model in their signature?

My BX is a 2021 model.

@dragondavid

RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - dragondavid - 2024-04-03

RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - sundermann - 2024-04-03

@kimpg89 Make a debug log with the current nightly with video component logging turned on


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - requa3r0 - 2024-04-03

Hi.
Just tested Kodi on my LG OLED from 2021.
Just for the record. Started with latest version of 22. But got some strange mishaps..with the "touchscreen" effect...just moving the courser around all sort of strange things happens..ind and out of dialogs and stating movies etc.
Installed Kodi v21 (Omega) Pre-release Builds just on top of the 22....to keep all the config i had already done.

Here everything seems pretty OK, although I also experience severe and not just "Occasionally" A/V sync is off. A full reboot seems to take care of it. I really hope you get around this issue.
But it plays True HD 7.1 sound and Dolby Vision 4k without wrong color mapping...something EMBY can not do!
So really good job so fare ;O)

But more worse though. The scroll whee l/ enter button on the remote really makes some strange mishaps. 
Its normal to just dial just a bit to get the cursor out, but if you do that in the middle of a movie..it will skip around in the movie randomly or even worse...it scrolls in the library ...and starts a movies 5 places below. Seriously in the middle of playback!

This scroll wheel issue really needs to be addressed and fixed..its almost impossible to do anything with the remote while watching a movie without all sort of issues.

Thanks for a great software..have been with you since the first XBMC..and not on my LG.

Fantasist ;O)


RE: Kodi on LG Web OS - dragondavid - 2024-04-04

Maybe dolby vision not working is something on 2022 models, because of processor or  video card, i know my have a powervr i think, gen5 processor.
