Title: Feature Request: HLG/HDR
Post by: razorback on May 10, 2018, 11:15:59 AM
Hi Folks,

I have 8 Satellites on my TV-Horizon and there are - by now - almost 20 UHD channels.
All of them - except one - are broadcasting in HLG/HDR

When playing recordings from those channels, the Q5Pro signals "HDR" to the TV - which is partially ok - but it does not recognize HLG/HDR.

Could this capability please be implemented.......

He means never razorback if you understand the joke. Never! No response from Dolby from anyone no one is interested no chance for DV nothing ever therefore certainly no HLG.

seriously speaking, HLG is easier to implement than DV, just metadata, not dual video stream or so.
what i don't understand, razorback, is how you set up the video line; isn't the tv decoding directly the satellite signal, using internal tuner?  where are you recording streams, external hdd? (i suppose that those recordings must be encoded and playable only on recorder tv).
anyway, a sample could be useful, if you can provide one.

Hi codyrocco

I never asked for DV and perfectly understand that HiMedia will not implement it because of the licensing cost.

But HLG is a flavour of the HDR Standard which already IS there in the HiMedia Boxes.
And it turned out to be the Standard of Satellite Broadcast - at least in Europe.

As for Your question to my Video-Line.
I use a VU+Solo4K satellite receiver connected to the LG OLED 55C6V with HDMI.
Recording occurs either to the internal harddisk or the NAS.
Some of the channels are FTA, others are Pay-TV and encoded.
But ALL of them are 2160p 50Hz HLG-HDR (except one which is HDR-10)

Of course I can provide a sample, just let me know how to do that.......
