Hey thanks a lot for this! It's so cool that hdr works out of the box. I was wondering if there was going to be a version with python 2 support for the old external addons? Are the instructions available on the github for building accurate? If so, I'll just build it myself (I noticed there was a branch for python 2.7).

I really don't want to devote much effort with Python 2.

The source code of Python2 branch is now updated with the latest changes (but I have not tested it).

To compile it there is a guide here: https://github.com/thexai/xbmc/blob/Wind...Windows.md

change

git clone https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc kodi

to

git clone -b Windows-HDR-Python2 https://github.com/thexai/xbmc.git kodi

Version 1.5.1
Updated at 26-12-2019 (forked from Kodi 19 alpha master).

Fixed: bad image when is used pixel shaders render method in HDR mode.
Improved: prevents use tone mapping when HDR is active (regardless of settings).


From this version is also possible use pixel shaders render method in settings.

Tested several scenarios:

Windows HDR = ON:
  HDR content playing OK
  SDR content playing OK
 
Windows HDR = OFF:
   HDR content playing OK   (use tone mapping settings)
   SDR content playing OK


Have fun

Version 1.4.1
Updated at 19-12-2019 (forked from Kodi 19 alpha master).

Fixed: very dark image in HDR10 to SRD conversion using DXVA HW tone mapping.


First post updated

Finally ! Thank Jogal, This issue force me use Pixel Shaders !!! This improvement will be integrated to master code for final release of V19 ? Or Alpha 2 ? Congratulation for Alpha 1.

4K in SDR works fine, HDR does not. The Screen is stuttering/stitching as explained earlier by someone else. I already installed the HEVC codec. updated Win10 and Drivers

How can i fix it? i really want to know

Be more specific and post a debug log.  

HEVC Windows codec is unrelated (is not used by kodi).

I also have the screen stuttering under HDR, though only while using "fullscreen window" mode. Real fullscreen seems to be fine.
This while using a RTX 2080 on latest Windows 10 running through a compatible Denon 4300 AVR. I'll post a log later on if required.

Feedback of my test with 1.5.1 :

• Full HD iso work fine
  
• 4k HDR have better conversion to SDR on DXVA decoder but it's still too dark (Example : IT Chapter Two)
  
• Every Video is perfectly smooth. 
  
• 4k HDR to SDR on pixel shader it's too grey 
  

I come back to last 18.6 leia (17-12-19) on pixel shaders process 

HTPC :

• Ryzen 2600
  
• RX570 4gb (driver 19.12.3)
  
• Windows 10 2004 (build 19041)
  
• Full HD SDR LG Oled 
  

Thank for your work , i'll test next version with improvement HDR===>SDR

[jogal]

Thanks for the feedback.

I have already seen the bug in pixel shaders HDR to SDR and it is fixed. I will soon upload a new version. Now is exactly than Leia 18.6 in these function.

As for the DXVA HW tone mapping, the driver does it (nothing can be set). But with the corrected PS version compare is more easy (I see it practically the same now).

Real fullscreen is the right way to work.

Version 1.6.0
Updated at 27-12-2019 (forked from Kodi 19 alpha master).

Fixed: bad image when is used pixel shaders render method in HDR source to SDR render.
Several internal changes that do not affect functionality but are necessary to merge with Kodi master branch.

Have fun
