Nvidia + madVR + LAV + MPC = UHD HDR BT2020 10bit Full Screen auto HDR mode on and off.

cheers but I find ATI cards more stable for HTPC use and MVC 3D works spot on every time, always have problems with NVIDIA 3D. While there isnt much HDR content i'll stick with my ATI card and just play what HDR stuff I have though my TV/PLEX.

Sorry you have problems others don't. It's a shame all the "faff" you have to go through just to simply play a movie based on content. Just thought I'd share the recent state of the art solution correcting your outdated knowledge as if it's still fact. That isn't to say your solutions aren't the best methods for you directly dependent on your limited GPU capabilities and the necessary inconvenient resourceful workarounds you are obliged to. Pretty happy just pressing play on any title in the Kodi library and having it do exactly that whether it's 3D, HDR, HEVC, SDR, iso, mkv, what ever. I'd hate to "faff" around myself.

Yeah, thanks for posting that, very useful. I've spent the last 18 months trying to get KODI stable with the least faff as possible, its pretty clear that most things arent geared up for 4k yet, drivers, apps and windows.

With my current solution I can play all my 1080p content without issue including 3D stuff all out of KODI DS which is great. I've tried everything to get KODI DS stable with 4k but it just doesnt work properly and I've explained why a few times on here.

Now XPLAY plex is stable on my LG OLED this is actually a perfect solution for my 4K content as it turns HDR on and off on the TV, i havent found anything this cant play well yet so i'm happy with my current solution.

I did try NVIDA, I had a 1060 but I had all sorts of issues with it, KODI and otherwise, that last a 2 weeks before I sacked it off and got an RX480 which wouldnt hardware decode properly for months.

I've now been stable with ATI/MADVR/LAV FILTERS/KODI DS for nearly a year and i'm super happy with it, the only thing I hate is how long MADVR takes to start a movies, you get a black screen, then hear a bit of audio, then it stops and then the movie starts after a few seconds, you always miss a few seconds. If anyone has a fixed for this let me know.
