No fully wrong ... the TV is dump it just clamps when it runs limited, no scaling. If you have a limited range TV and output full range to it, it will just cut 0 .. 16 and 235 .. 255.
Now software part:
xrandr setting Limited 16:235 - scales (!) everything it gets no matter what it is down! so if you give it 16 it will make ~ 2x from it, if you give it 235 it will make ~ 21x out of it -> result: No blacks, no whites.
xrandr full: assume everything you get is fine and directly output it without touching ... so 16 will be 16 and 235 will be 235. With a limited TV -> direct output.
No we don't. If it was that way - we had no problem at all.
Btw. if you would just use the forum search, you would find all that information: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2319474 so that I don't have to explain it again and again. Or just look into the wiki: http://kodi.wiki/view/Video_levels_and_color_space
