25/50fps at 60Hz is an acceptable, viewable, workaround until AML Kodi refresh rate switching is fixed for S9xx devices. The results were very surprising !
I have a bunch of 2160p / 10bit HEVC test clips.
Just found the 10-bit HEVC 2160/50fps Astra-SES_Demo_UHD_satellite_end-of-2015 clip. Playing that in Kodi produces the predictable green/pink color banding, I'm surmising due to the due to lack of 10-bit video output from Kodi.
Another Astra 10-bit HEVC 2160/50 clip of a City and Tropical beach looks very nice tho, without blocky artifacts or banding.
Will have to find a AML 10-bit video output, player to really test properly.
Big Buck Bunny: 8-bit H264 2160/60p will not play properly, I'm wondering if 2160p 50/60Hz is limited to HEVC only ?
Or amcodec spits the dummy at Variable Bitrate H264 video.
