1. Is it just a fake what is an HDR10 but does Dolby Vision trigger on TV?
2. It is a better HDR10 with some vision metadata ?
3. DVDFab has really found a way to integrate it ?
We found the answer, or at least answered it as far as possible.

Is it like the original DV = no
Is it HDR10 with only DV logo = no
Is it better like HDR10 = yes

So if you are dependent on single layer DV, you have an option to create a very similar experience afterwards.

If the Kodi team found a way to use the Nvidia Shield decoder for single layer DV, it would be great. @Hitcher 

We can forget dual layer DV. I think there is no "legal" way to make this playable.

It is possible with tools like latest makemkv to create dual layer single stream DV video that (currently only after conversion to a TS container) can be played back with DV on an nv shield using the licensed HW decoder.

Of course you still need a licensed decoder in HW but in case you had one, like on a S922X-J box, is there a roadblock for Kodi to use it on Linux?
