Subtitles with XySubFilter can also cause issues with that little VRAM. It works with a GT 1030 with an asterisk, and you still may get some stuttering with certain content under certain circumstances (e.g. 4K 60 fps).(2018-07-06, 18:56)brazen1 Wrote: Your GTX 1050 does not have enough RAM to decode HDR at only 2GB whereas a GTX 1050Ti has ample RAM with 4GB.This is not correct...
With my GT1030 and Kodi DSPlayer Version with madVR I can play all 4K HDR (23,976 fps) files without ANY problems.
Windows Kodi should at least consider making use of the OS HDR switch in Windows. A few other players like Plex and VLC are using this method. It is manual, but HDR passthrough will work if the switch is enabled. SDR content gets played as HDR until the switch is disabled. It would reduce the amount of support questions related to external players but require some education on how to enable and disable the Windows OS HDR switch.
