For the love of god, could someone please help me get this setup? 
So basically after years of using Kodi in 1080p I bought a 4K HDR TV and just kinda expected it all to work, only to find Kodi doesn't support HDR.

So my search leads me to Kodi DSPlayer which uses MadVR.

My objective is to play 4K HDR remuxes. 
So first of all does MadVR require GPU power or CPU power?

I'm using a Geforce GT1030 card with 2Gb RAM and 385.69 drivers, latest Windows 10 fall build.
Latest Kodi DS player 17.6. Full screen mode is enabled, exclusive full screen mode is enabled in MadVR

So basically after lot's of fiddling 4K HDR WORKS!! As in the TV switches to 4K mode in HDR, the image has never looked so good.
I would be rejoicing if it wasn't for the fact it's playing back at about 3FPS

It's so slow there isn't even any sound. Kinda looks like the CPU is doing the work but cannot confirm.
What have I done wrong?

Aha yes, because I'm an idiot and didn't realise there was an actual DSplayer option within Kodi itself, now I do I realise I didn't have hardware acceleration enabled lol

However, new problem. Image looks great but sound isn't outputting in passthru mode. There doesn't appear to be a WASPI option to choose from in the audio renders?
Also is directx 9 or 11 preferable for 4K HDR playback?
