Original 4K BDs ara all HDR, so it must be converted previously (re-encoded), or "on-the -fly" by the HTPC/software to SDR. So the quality and originality of the colors (that affects the whole PQ generally) will be altered posteriorly and artificially. But both still ain't exactly the "original" SDR, as there is on the "stock" FHD SDR BD sources.(2018-03-16, 21:19)piotrasd Wrote: So right now don't work
Yes, but Kodi 18 is translating HDR colors to "SD", colors look good and not washed up anymore.

Till I won't be convinced an assured by the conversion quality and won't have a HDR capable TV and both HTPC, i will stick to the FHD SDR versions for most of the time.

And I already pointed out there that for HDR support it is still is a long way to go for Linux users. Right now the infrastructure for HDR support is missing both in the Linux kernel and in userspace. This means you won't get HDR support with Kodi on Linux anytime soon. But at least we now know that Gemini Lake will be HDR-capable, as it is also confirmed on the Intel forums now (finally):
Guy which made PoF of HDR for linux used Gemini lake

Hardware wise you'll need a HDR capable display obviously, and
you'll need an Intel Geminilake GPU. Older Intel platforms don't
support the HDR infoframe, so the display wouldn't know what to do
with the data you're feeding it.
