well well miracles do happen.. lol

done full wipe and install of new creators 10. installed latest nvidia drivers. mpc-be + madvr. only thing i changed was depth bit and hdr settings. once things were set and tested in mpc-be+madvr i then installed kodi + playerfactory.xml to get mpc-be+madvr launching from within kodi.

tada.. working perfectly connected direct to tv.

play hdr content and hdr switches on. stop playback and hdr turns off, just like it should. non hdr content does not turn hdr on.

playback is judder free and smooth as silk, colour is amazing (had to tweak the hdr a bit). playback is also very fast at handshaking.

guardians 2 does have hdr embedded :-)

i now need a new amp with hdcp 2.2.. lol

i suppose i could use one of the other hdmi ports on the 1050ti for audio only to amp. i'll try that later.

btw with amp connected to hdmi arc port on tv and htpc connected to another hdmi port on tv i'm getting DD sound through the amp, not full hd though.

now i wonder if kodi+dsplayer+madvr will work just the same as i really like how everything is integrated into kodi. thinks me is going to test it out.

btw i'm using mpc-be 'portable' with madvr inside the 'system/player' folder of kodi.
