Read HERE for detailed 4K HDR10 testing on S905X hardware running the LE or OSMC Linux distros. The S912 is the same. It's all handled at a AML Linux Kernel level, virtually independent of the OS or playback software used.
Kodi user interface selectable Chroma and bit depth settings are being added slowly to some AML LE distros. At the moment you can simply add them to a permanent LE or OSMC autostart file once you SSH login.
