This plugin fully supports HDR, 4k and Dolby Surround, but playback is limited by Amazon & Google. 4k in particular requires certified hardware, so if you're running Kodi on a Firestick for example, no problem, but if you're running it on a RPi or a PC, you won't even get FHD.

Don't want to sound pushy or anything (just trying to understand the technical reasoning behind it), but are you sure about that statement regarding IS.A?
Reason I ask is that on my Nvidia Shield I cannot get this plugin to play 4K HDR streams from Amazon, even though the Netflix addon that also uses IS.A is capable of doing this.
Now that Amazon has lifted the Covid-19 limitations and enabled 4k in their own app again, I was hoping the plugin would also play 4k streams through IS.A.
By the way, the option to play 4k using the native app doesn't work on my Shield either. Is there anything special I should do to get this working?
