BTW thanks for your great work - with latest ppa build (git20150927.0952-60636ac) everything is sooo great :-)
Also kernel 4.2.0-rc8 you gave me few days ago works without any problems.

What exactly do you mean by dither mode? Enabling dithering while in limited range tv + kodi or going full range with dithering?
Generally, calibrating the picture through kodi sounds wrong. You shouldn't have fiddle with contrast if the TV is setup right.
