I think Kodi's output is still 8-bit on Windows/Linux (I could be wrong). Also, it is not just lack of HDR. You can't get wide color gamut (BT.2020) output. HDR clips are rendered in BT.709 8-bit probably converted to 10-bit by graphics driver settings.

Hi all,
I'm thinking of swapping out my Nvidia 750ti low profile card for the new MSI GTX 1050 ti low profile. I tried the NUC route and wasn't happy with the current offerings (wanted 10bit and other features).
Is this a viable card to offer full hardware support for MVC decoding, 10bit and etc to have the "final" complete KODI solution?
I realize this is the Intel thread but I couldn't really find another place to ask the question related to the Kodi mvc/3d builds.
Thanks!

For HDR HDMI 2.0a is a must, or is it? Most new barebone's that are there at this moment (Beebox) or are coming soon (NUC's) lacking the "a" specification so no HDR output?
