Intel Gemini Lake - HDGMA - 2017-12-11 https://newsroom.intel.com/news/introducing-new-intel-pentium-silver-intel-celeron-processors/ Intel has officially launched their Apollo Lake successor, Gemini Lake. https://ark.intel.com/products/codename/83915/Gemini-Lake https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/pentium/j5005.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/celeron/j4105.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/processors/celeron/j4005.html RE: Intel Gemini Lake - honcho - 2017-12-11 no mention of HDR still... RE: Intel Gemini Lake - b4cksl4sh - 2017-12-11 This german news site claims that HDMI 2.0 is being supported natively. Means we will get rid of the infamous LSPCOn converter chip. https://www.golem.de/news/gemini-lake-intel-bringt-pentium-silver-mit-gigabit-wlan-1712-131578.html "Neu ist der Display-Controller der Gen10, welcher erstmals nativ HDMI 2.0 statt per Konverter-Chip unterstützt." "The new display controller of the Gen10 which now supports HDMI 2.0 natively instead through a converter chip."

Anandtech also confirmed native 2.0 support.

RE: Intel Gemini Lake - Songoku - 2017-12-14 Looking forward for this one. Hope solves our problems with 4K/HDR etc. RE: Intel Gemini Lake - _Spook_ - 2017-12-15 (2017-12-13, 22:31)honcho Wrote:HDR has nothing to do with LSPCON on Kaby Lake or other CPUs with HDMI 2.0 today.(2017-12-12, 18:41)P.Kosunen Wrote: https://www.anandtech.com/show/12146/intel-launches-gemini-lake-pentium-silver-and-celeron-socs-new-cpu-media-featuresIf there's no hdr, what is the big deal? HDR now is all about OS (Linux kernel, latest Windows 10 has limited HDR support) and drivers. So it's up to Intel DRM in Linux kernel development if I am correct and Intel display drivers and Microsoft for better support in Windows 10. Not a hardware limitation anymore. Also the media software needs to be developed to support HDR. Kodi has no support yet. PowerDVD is the only one with support for Windows if I remeber correctly. I would say HDR is still a year away before it's ready in any form on Linux (purely guessing). Android has almost figured out the 4K HDR stuff. Apple TV 4K is looking very promising.

I doubt it's a hardware limitation, but artificial in order to segment their chips more effectively.(2017-12-13, 22:31)honcho Wrote:HDR has nothing to do with LSPCON on Kaby Lake or other CPUs with HDMI 2.0 today.(2017-12-12, 18:41)P.Kosunen Wrote: https://www.anandtech.com/show/12146/intel-launches-gemini-lake-pentium-silver-and-celeron-socs-new-cpu-media-featuresIf there's no hdr, what is the big deal? RE: Intel Gemini Lake - HDGMA - 2017-12-26 https://www.anandtech.com/show/12171/a-budget-home-theater-pc-setup-4k-hdr-uhd-bluray-and-more/11 Quote: In terms of HTPC hardware, one of the interesting platforms about to debut in shipping systems is Gemini Lake. The low-cost platform supports SGX, HDMI 2.0, and HDCP 2.2. Gemini Lake platforms have a lower power budget and memory performance compared to the KBL-U systems covered in this piece. Intel confirmed that they do not plan to support HDR processing workflows in Gemini Lake due to those constraints. Consumers looking for Gemini Lake to provide a low-cost HTPC platform should prepare to temper their expectations. Thanks for nothing as usual, Intel.
