LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - cyber201 - 2017-02-26 Hi to all, I have a PC with LibreELEC v8.0 + Intel KabyLake + nVidia GTX 1070 + Samsung KS8000 and when I try to play a video in HDR, the TV don't recognize it. But LibreElec support HDR? Thanks a lot RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - fritsch - 2017-02-26 No it does not (and this was concerning your TV not "detecting" them). RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - cyber201 - 2017-02-26 OK, thanks...but what is the problem? The kernel of LibreElec or the nVidia card? RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - fritsch - 2017-02-26 a) Decode -> b) Render -> c) Display a) Nvidia has no hevc-10 bit decoding support on linux with vdpau. Therefore SW decoding is used (check) b) Render only has 8 bit visual support non check c) Display from the the display driver does whatever it wants, most likely RGB24 non check A long way to go ... RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - cyber201 - 2017-02-26 Ok, thanks for your support.... RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - kalebroc - 2017-06-17 Hi Fritsch, just having a read of this post and was wondering is there any update on getting hevc-10 bit support on Linux with vdpau? Thanks for all the work and info you guys give on this forum RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - fritsch - 2017-06-17 No - vdpau (the decoding standard) itself does not support it and also nvidia's driver does not implement. Absolutely zero we can do for VDPAU. RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - kalebroc - 2017-06-19 Fritsch, thank you for the reply, that kinda sucks doesn't it? My HTPC (Core i3 7100, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD & Nvidia GTX 1050Ti 4GB) looks like it will be going back to Windows 10 from Libreelec in order to get proper 4K HDR movies to play. What really sucks is a Beelink GT1 Ultimate Amlogic S912 android box running the experimental LibreELEC 8.0 for S912 from kszaq seems to play everything I throw at it, 1080p, 4k & even 4K HDR. Hopefully Nvidia will get their act together and sort out proper drivers for Linux, in the meantime back to Windows 10 and I suppose trying to get 4K HDR on Windows is going to be a pain !!!!!! RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - fritsch - 2017-06-19 Alternatively you can implement CUVID - yet another proprietary nvidia decoding mechanism ... that one exists in ffmpeg already. RE: LibreElec and 4K HDR Videos - kalebroc - 2017-06-19 cool, I'll certainly have a look into that, thank you again for the excellent info |
