NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box)
HDR really at the moment, especially for those using cheap Kodi media players is a Con, because:
  • You cannot self Rip HDR10 UltraHD Blurays. Ones that have all the correctly encoded HDR10 metadata due to uncracked copy protection.
  • HDR10 content is useless - unless you have a certified Ultra HD Premium display to actually take advantage of HDR to watch video content properly.
  • Limited, properly encoded HDR10 content to begin with.
The HDR buzzword currently is nothing more than marketing spin and Bullshit with cheap Kodi media players. The Wank factor is very high. Especially with these supposed internet HDR re-encodes.

At least with an officially licenced Android TV OS platform like the nVIDIA Shield you can watch properly encoded 4K HDR10 Netflix & Amazon streaming content.

Can I stream Netflix in Dolby Vision or HDR ?

And then to complicate matters your media player & AVR has to support HDMI2.0a as well & HDCP2.2 for protected content UltraHD streaming.
