SUCCESS with Intel I3-8300 and HDMI V2 IGP output
The important bit for me was upgrading to the Intel DCH 25.20.100.6577 IGP Driver
Setup:
Kodi 18.0 RC5 X64 Build from Morpog
Windows 10 Pro X64 with all updates as of 26/02/2019
Intel DCH 25.20.100.6577 Driver (Released Yesterday, did not work with older DCH 25.20.100.6444)
Supermicro X11SCA-F Motherboard (Uses the less common PS175 DisplayPort convertor; NOT Megachips, this may or may not be important)
Other Details (Don't think these will matter though):
KVM VM running under 4.20.7-arch1-1-ARCH Kernel Linux Host
Intel UPT Passthrough of IGP
Unique "SG" video option enabled in Supermicro Bios (Allows host to boot from IPMI for video and then HDMI to be passed through to VM)
Using INF EDID override (This was from earlier troubleshooting to make my old Denon amp not default to stereo on power cycle but I don't think its required in general)
Notes:
Samsung TV switched automatically and declared 3D Hardware (Not Interlaced like before) but reports 1080P/30 despite the source reporting as 1080/23.976 by Kodi
Movement seems good
DTS HD-MA Passthrough is working well
Video Decoder is reported as msdk_mvc (HW) and CPU use is no higher than 25% (I only pass 2 cores from the CPU to the VM)
Seems to switch ok from 3D to 2D and vice-versa
Automatic refresh rate switching seems to be broken with this build; works with the official Kodi 18 releases
Have only used for 30mins so far but this is very encouraging IMHO
Have some photos but cant seem to upload to this forum.
