Correction: DV works with MEL layers that I believe carry only dynamic metadata and nothing else. See this list - if the MEL layer carries like 0.09 Mb/s, it works. If it carries ~0.7 Mb/s, or indeed the most common 2 Mb/s, then it does not work.

So Maven build only works on 2019 Shield?

I have newer Shield TV. Am I out of luck?

RE: Kodi Android build with support for Dolby Vision MKV - BluHD - 2022-11-20

There are no newer shields than the 2019 version.

RE: Kodi Android build with support for Dolby Vision MKV - yuimyt - 2022-11-21

Oops.  Never mind.  I was confused with 2017 version.  I have 2019 version and Maven's Matrix build shows Dolby Vision!   Awesome!!

Good evening, would anyone know how to disable hdr in kodi on an android phone? I've tried everything, the new official versions, or maven with the new versions, and even so the hdr is still activated, my cell phone is an s10+ exynos with hdr support.

RE: Kodi Android build with support for Dolby Vision MKV - eads_max_king - 2022-11-23

With HDR enabled my videos on youtube are faded in color.

Just want to report that if you observe black screen on Dolby Vision movie with profile 8 on Ugoos AM6 Plus box, update the firmware to 0.5.4.
- Fixes of automatic frame rate function for Dolby Vision

So 0.5.4. is working for you okay then and playing smooth. I'm still on 0.5.2 , might try the update. I've never had much success with the auto frame rate switching on this box with any codex, I gave up and just check it and change manually.

For some reason Kodi 20 RC2 (Maven's build) has issues with Atmos passthrough on the Fire TV Cube (3rd). True-HD and DTS-HD passthrough works like a charm, but when E-AC3 contains Atmos metadata, audio playback stutters or is completely silent. On the Shield TV Pro (2019) I don't experience any issues, but obviously that's a different build.

64-bit versions: https://repo.kodinerds.net/index.php?action=list&scope=cat&item=Binary%20(arm64-v8a)

32-bit versions: https://repo.kodinerds.net/index.php?action=list&scope=cat&item=Binary%20(armeabi-v7a)

And no, there is no such thing as a v20 stable build yet.

Also, the Matrix versions are based on 19.4, but also nightlies, i.e. there could be issues with them (although they are usually very stable).

Which version for android tv?
77mb
Or
69mb?

what are the differences?

Thank you very much

It depends on the Android TV version you are running. Most TVs with Android TV are 32-bit. The normal Nvidia Shield 2019 is also 32-bit, but the Shield 2019 Pro is 64-bit.

The easiest way is just to try to install the 64-bit APK first and if it doesn't want to install, use the 32-bit version instead.
