Hi.
I have the same problem with my new Sony 49XF8596 and a movie in UHD and HDR.
With Kody 17.6 there is no problem, but with May 26 nightly Leia and MediaCodec Surface, grey bars appear up and down, and the audio (AAC) is played long long before the video. By enabling just MediaCodec (not the Surface one), the video cannot be properly decoded and it goes very, very slow.
I installed SPMC 16.7.4 and it works perfectly with MediaCodec Surface, with black bars, audio and video syncrhonized and HDR in the TV.
There is something really broken in Kodi, but I do not know if it is very important, serious or it only affects our platform, since I cannot find any information in google.
