After much documentation (I do not consider myself an expert on this) I have decided to implement new tone mapping methods for Kodi:
Version 6.0.0
Updated at 02-11-2020 (forked from Kodi 19 alpha master).

Any feedback is welcome
These are some of the sources on which I have relied (without this information it would not have been possible):

Version 6.0.0
Updated at 02-11-2020 (forked from Kodi 19 alpha master).
- Add new tone map methods: "Reinhard Custom" and "ACES Filmic". It greatly improves color retention and increases contrast. The original Reinhard method only acts on luminance so the color tends to lose intensity (image gray-ish).
- New algorithm that considers the 3 metadata values: Max ML, MaxCLL and MaxFALL. Try to compensate for some movies looking too light or too dark by only taking MaxCLL into account.
- New keymap shortcut ALT + F11 to cycle between tone map methods without need to enter on video settings OSD menu.
