I play uncompressed MKV files. For titles like Bohemian Rhapsody which feature HDR10+, the color is washed out. I realize my TV does not support HDR10+ and MKV files do not support Dolby Vision. Would the latest CoreELEC update help with this and play HDR10+ content as traditional HDR? Or does this update merely pass through HDR10+ content properly to HDR10+ compatible displays?
Too many variables in the HDMI chain to even make an educated guess.
Simply do a .tar backup of your current CE setup and store that CE .tar backup on your PC.
Then do a -ng nightly .tar update and see what happens.
For HDR10+ to work everything needs to be HDR10+ compatible, including AVR's supporting HDR10+ Video passthrough. Which a LOT of ones do not.
I'm not looking to get HDR10+ working correctly since I know my TV doesn't support it. The closest evidence I can find so far is someone on the CoreELEC forums stating a nightly build from the end of September allowed HDR10 output from an HDR10+ file. Looks like I'll be doing some testing soon.
