LG TV - HDR PROBLEM
« on: November 03, 2016, 09:57:14 AM »
 I purchased the q10pr but I have some problems on my LG TV 65EG960V

- HDR
I can not play video in HDR doing activate the DHR window of my TV.
If I set the option on or SDR OTHER files (HDR video demo LG and Samsung) they are played, but the HDR does not turn on the TV.
In this case the set video output is irrelevant (444, 420, which is 8bit 10bit). The video is always played.
If I try to set the HDR option to Auto, 10 or 8 bits, any resolution you set the file plays video but I only see the colored oblique lines.
I would like at this point to understand the difference between the two options (SDR and HDR) setting SDR and if the video keeps the HDR even though the window of my TV does not fire

- Kodi + Wrapper
to start playback from Kodi with the wrapper must first boot a any video file from the media center Himedia then open kodi. At this point, everything works perfectly even with the automatic transmission frequency.

Do you have suggestions for solving these problems?
Thank you in advance.

I have the same HDR playback problem...the video (with HIMEDIA setting: HDR10) is played with colored horizontal stripes...

if I will reproduce (for ex) the same file "LG Colors of Journey - HDR" demo directly from USB TV, it works perfectly.
Someone know this problem?
tks

MY HIMEDIA Q10 PRO  (v1.0.7)
VIDEO SETTINGS:
 - 2160/60hz
 - HDR10
 - 420/422 8bit/10bit
HDMI UHD 2.0b cable

I also have no problem playing that file on with those same settings on a HiSense HDR TV. TV says HDR.

Display resolution: 2160p 60Hz.

Settings - More - Advanced Settings: Color space YCBCR 420 10bit, HDR Mode: HDR10.

I tried to set the q10 with your instructions but unfortunately I can not play the movies properly hdr.

These are my test video:
LG_2_DEMO_4K_L_H_01_Dolby Comparison_UHD.ige    OK                         (not activated HDR icon on TV)
LG_2_DEMO_4K_L_H_02_Dolby Trailer.ige                          OK                         (not activated HDR icon on TV)
LG_2_DEMO_4K_L_H_03_Daylight .ige                                 ERROR                  (activates HDR icon on TV)
LG_2_DEMO_4K_L_H_04_UHD HDR Tech.ige                     ERROR                  (activates HDR icon on TV)
LG_2_DEMO_4K_L_H_05_Rays of Light.ige                         ERROR                  (activates HDR icon on TV)
Samsung_HDR _-_ Chasing_the_Light.mp4                         ERROR                   (activates HDR icon on TV)

Thanks for the solution.

I think you are playing from a password protected Samba share? You need to go to My Apps - Wrapper and enter the Samba details.

I forgot to say you that....I have the same OLED LG TV of ALFONSO. (LG 55B6V)
All HDR Demos works in the USB TV by activating the HDR icon mode of TV.

Thanks
