Hello,
I tested the Kodi picture quality with a HDMI capture device. This is a raw capture, no compression.
I used the Spears & Munsil test disc, there are the test pictures (same frame from the 1080p24 video):
Kodi 17 nightly (i3-5005u): link
Dune HD Connect (SMP8675): link
Popcorn Hour VTEN (SMP8757): link
Samsung BD-F5500 (MediaTek MT8555): link
BFS 4KM (HiSilicon Hi3798): link
It seems, the Sigma and the MediaTek SoC give the best quality, transparent output, the HiSilicon SoC overprocess the image a bit (due the Imprex engine), and Kodi is the less detailed.
Why?
