Hello jogal,
could you compile/provide a 32 Bit Version?
I am running a 32-Bit DLL Driver for an ambilight (dfatmo kodi addon ) and I highly doubt that there will ever be a 64 Bit of that Driver. My only Chance would be to run kodi as 32 Bit Version.
Thanks

Just installed this Kodi release and it's work pretty good! Tested some UHD HDR movies and my TV correctly switch in HDR mode. The image quality is perfect and not washed out like on Kodi 17.5. I also tested two HDR tv series and one (Games of thrones) works good in HDR mode but not the second (The Mandalorian): the tv doesn't recognize it like a HDR stream. The same, playng the episodes with PowerDVD19. Only the embedded tv video player can reproduce that contenent in HDR. Why?
However I installed several video add-ons on this Kodi 19 and no one is working. Is this Kodi 19 so an early beta?
This is my configuration: TV LG 65OLEDB8, CPU i7-6700, GPU RTX 2070

Hey Jogal, what exactly did you change to have Python 2 with the latest updates?
And by the way, on my fork you can find libbluray 1.1.2 already compiled and working with Kodi 19.
It has a few bugs like chapters not working for full UHD Blurays (BDMV/ISO)
Do you think you could take a look when you are done with HDR?

ok, it wasnt the drivers or Windows updates, its the framerate
If I set in kodi to change framerate to match the file, I get the unwatchable stuttering/stitching
this only happens to HDR files
also I have to set the framerate in Windows to 60 fps, which introduces micro stuttering because of mismatched framerate
two Bugs:
1. reinhard tone mapping always activates after reboot, even when set to disable as standard
2. some SDR stuff looks really bad when Windows is set to HDR, for example the kodi intro file, especially the darker parts

Hi,
tl;dr : in my setup a clean fresh install works. Adding app data from 18.5 creates stutter.
some feedback:
Tested on Intel NUC 8i3BEH + Denon AVX-2400H + Panasonic 65FZ800 OLED
windows 1909 almost fresh install
i normally run kodi 18.5
installed 19 hdr 64 bit as a portable install in separate directory (as per Kodi wiki)
run once, to create appdate dir
copy 18.5 app data to 19 portable
result : heavy stutter every 2 seconds, with progress bar appearing each time
had this with 1.3 and 1.2, python 3 and 2. (Each time new portable install, with 18.5 appdata )
installed the windows hevc decoder from Microsoft store.
no change
did a clean portable install of 1.3 : success! Tv switches automatically to hdr. No stutter, Mandalorian & 2001 space odyssey work, colours are great.
