i would guess if there were any recent fixes they would be in the latest nightly, did you try one? https://www.tinymediamanager.org/download/nightly-build

i haven't really been following along with this thread but i wanted to leave a note that there is an active PR for the jellyfin for kodi addon so that it will import the hdrtype from the server https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-kodi/pull/804
expectation is that if the metadata is being imported by the addon, then the kodi database will have it stored and the skins and information displays will be able to display the correct icons/labels

No. If your nfo files contain any streamdetails, so any info between the
<streamdetails></streamdetails> tags then none of the info is read from the video file, even if the streamdetails are incomplete.If you delete all of the streamdetails from your nfo then the video file will be read to obtain them.
Hope that's clear.

Wouldn't it be better to compare/update the nfo from file info when a file is updated or playing? Some Scenario:
I have a file + nfo with:
Code:
<streamdetails>
<video>
<codec>hevc</codec>
<aspect>1.777780</aspect>
<width>1920</width>
<height>1080</height>
<durationinseconds>7440</durationinseconds>
<stereomode></stereomode>
</video>
<audio>
<codec>ac3</codec>
<language>deu</language>
<channels>2</channels>
</audio>
</streamdetails>Now I replace the file with an updated file (same name, because its the same movie) containing 4K, Dolby Vision, DTS Master 6 Channels. In this case the nfo is obsolete but still used as long the streamdetails section is present as you wrote above. Or I'm wrong?

Then you should either update or delete the NFO and refresh the video info.
RE: HDR Flags not working- [split] Aeon Nox: SiLVO - _BJ1 - 2024-01-06
I don't agree with that. What does John Doe do, who is barely able to copy a movie into his media storage? You tell him to delete files he doesn't know the meaning of? He relies on the fact that after replacing the files, the information is read from them again. In addition, the option "Extract video info from files" is a hidden option (Advanced/Expert), is also activated by default and suggest this.
Sorry but this is going the wrong way as the same manner like file naming as "mymovie.4k.uhd.hevc.dts.mkv" who's possibly pimped up a quarter DV video with 360x240 mono to a faked super duper movie.

I go to Kodi media/video settings and turn off extract video info from files.Do you have TMM set to create NFO files for Jellyfin or Kodi, I have mine set to Kodi, but I don't know if this is right. Should I be using Jellyfin NFO?
Cheers
I use Kodi.

Hi
Just a quick update on this. Tiny Media Manager does now write the hdrtype tag to the nfo files and my HDR flags are showing correctly, so many thanks for all your help with this.
I notice that HDR10 and HDR10+ both get written to the nfo file as HDR10. Are there any plans to add a tag and flag specifically for HDR10+. I did try manually changing the tag to HDR10+ but this made no difference.
Cheers

Flags for HDR10+ are not supported yet.
RE: HDR Flags not working- [split] Aeon Nox: SiLVO - WarpLover - 2024-06-03
I found this thread interesting and wondered what's going on with my library.
Most of my HDR does not show up as HDR tags in the default skin. They used to < 3 months ago. (reinstalled LE a couple of times)
I scrolled through a list of UHD movies just now to see what showed up as HDR and why. Not many of them are showing up as HDR. The two exceptions I looked at had one thing in common. The metadata section was missing from them both (the v codec, a codec, subtitle area). And I've never put that codec/HDR info in the filename (just the resolution), yet these two show as HDR. Curious. Does Kodi run a metadata scan on the fly? Or maybe its the difference between using LOCAL vs a scraper?
Normally my nfo's are made by EMM. Even then, I don't think it includes HDR tags in the metadata. These two nfo's look like they were made at download time and somehow did not go through the normal EMM process before they went into the library.
RE: HDR Flags not working- [split] Aeon Nox: SiLVO - jjd-uk - 2024-06-03
The problem is your nfo files, Kodi does scan the files for their codec data, however that gets overwritten by whatever is in your nfo files.
