Q5 Pro HDR Issue
« on: December 07, 2016, 11:40:23 PM »
Hello,

I am trying to playback videos with HDR in Kodi and all I get is sound, no video at all. I tried experimenting with the settings, it will not let me choose 10 bit HDR (I am not sure if this is relevant). I have tried 3-4 different HDR files with the same results. The same files play with no problems directly via USB in my LG TV. I have just purchased the Q5 Pro and it has the latest firmware. Any help?

Thank you in advance

Choose 2160p 24hz and in advanced Settings 4:4:4 10 Bit.

Then you get HDR ;-)

4:2:0 10 Bit is only working in 2160p 50/60hz

I did that and when I try to select 4:4:4 10 bit it says: "selected is not support, set to back"

Any ideas?

My Q5 pro has the latest firmware, so Wrapper is preinstalled...

Did you set resolution to 2160p 24Hz first?

YcbCr 4:4:4 10 bits doesn't work for me too but I thought that YcbCr 4:4:4 10 bits was not supported due to Bandwidth limitation of the HDMI  < 18Gbps

Am I wrong ?

RGB 4:4:4 10 bits and YcbCr 4:2:0 10 bits should work instead

The problems with HDR have been reported to HiMedia multiple times and are #1 priority as far as I'm concerned for next update.
