Life of Pi sample plays fine but TV doesnt switch to HDR.

It's not supposed to. Kodi does not decode HDR yet. We were determining why you had stutters. Now that a test file "plays fine", we know it was your previous source. You could compare bitrates and see if your source is higher or not using 'mediainfo'. If that's the case, your system isn't able to keep up with it or pass it correctly be it a network problem streaming it or your system itself but we know it's not a Kodi problem. We may be finding out a 1030 entry card just doesn't have enough oomph in the real world. Would need much more feedback to confirm that though. You might search around a bit and see if you come across similar complaints. What throws everything off is that you can play a high bitrate HEVC though........ Which really leads me to believe the problem lay in your original source.

Do you think trying DSPlayer could solve this issue? If so ill try it tomorrow.
Thanks for all the help.

Could the audio stream be the issue? One is AAC and the other HD.
Also Bitrate is 70 Mb/s on the source I cant play vs. 45 Mb/s on Life of PI. Not a major difference.
Other difference is one is mkv and the other mp4.

It is worth to try but be prepared to tweak your setup little bit more, especially if you want to get HDR working. For example you need to update the latest madVR v0.91.11 and make correct settings on madVR-setup for HDR-passthrough. Additionally you also have to use a specific=older NVidia driver, I use at the moment 376.92.
But just to confirm the stuttering issue, no major tweaking is needed. As I wrote before this specific stuttering issue is somehow related to scenes, where the bitrate increases rapidly. Your file has an average bitrate of 70 Mbs, so in practice there are scenes, where bitrate will be much higher. For example the jellyfish sample file from Kodi-wiki with max 400Mbs can play OK but the bitrate on that file is quite static all the time. Of course just a theory but this has been my observation so far. Of course it is also possible the these problem files might be encoded badly but as they play nicely in different player/setup I don't think so. As you speculated the HD-audio might also cause additional challenge here, although being passed through. Who knows...
But clearly this whole issue is something which is clearly related to basic Kodi 32-bit 17.x -setup in Windows, in Kodi 18 64-bit this specific issue is not present.

Just tried Kodi 18 64 bit (KodiSetup-20170803-761fd47afc-master-x64.exe) and still have the issue.

I really appreciate all the help everyone is giving me. I really do.
Goodton mentionned that it should play well on Kodi 18. I tried it. It didnt go as planned so I let him know.
I did post two debug logs just not for the Kodi 18 issue.
No need to be rude or harsh. Where did you see me whine?. I know how it works. Look in the source code you will see my name. I contributed code for the picture section.
If you feel you want to ban me go ahead but man you need to chill out.

Will add <sarcasm> tag next time...

sarcasm is a way to hide when people call you out. Too easy.
