Some people think that their TV, their AVR - whatever, is the best upscaler on this planet. Therefore they want kodi to output in the native resolution of the Video, so that their TV / AVR can then upscale this resolution to the native resolution of the TV.
With nvidia's AI scaler (funny btw. what one calles AI today), you have the superior scaler _IN_ your shield, means: set the output to the native resolution for your TV, e.g. 3840x2160 and just enable refreshrate switching without adding other resolutions to the whitelist (besides 3840x2160), that way mediacodec-surface (internally, without kodi influence) will do the scaling of the video surface.
Got it?
Settings i've tried setting based on your comment (im kodi noob so probably wrong).
Resolution: 4k (4k tv)
Whitelist: 4k (all possible refresh rates, not sure this is needed)
Adjust Refresh Rate: "On start/stop" (Since I read ai scaling does not work when set above 30frames)
Can anyone tell me how to set this up so it works?
Thanks in advance
