GUI peak luminance in HDR PQ mode is a Windows only Setting.

Any other way to reduce the brightness for OSD when hdr video is playing?
I never had this problem on my previous device, but now on the shield the OSD is way too bright when pausing a video for instance.

So there is no way to turn the brightness of OSD down while playing HDR content?
It is quite annoying, especially in dark room or at night, and it'll probably force me to Plex

There is nothing to be worked on. Android (SurfaceFlinger) is responsible for mapping the UI.
Ask your device vendor.

IIRC HDR10 playback on Android has correct brightness for the UI, doesn't it?
I think it's only too bright for Dolby Vision.
I remember seeing some code that handles UI tone mapping in HDR.

Hmm. Why is this an issue? You don't look at the UI all the time when watching movies?
If it's just the subtitles, you CAN select the color in Kodi settings. I have mine set to gray. It is a bit darkish on some SDR content but still quite OK.
