Kodi v20 on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 doesn't play iPhone 13 Pro videos in HDR - ilikehtpc - 2023-04-30
I have an Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 and an LG OLED CX and whenever I try to play videos shot on my iPhone 13 Pro (that are taken in HDR), it doesn't play them in HDR. Is this not supported? Plex will sometimes play them properly (different problem) but Kodi doesn't play any of them in HDR at all. Does Kodi not support dolby vision? I think the iPhone HDR is actually dolby vision from what I've read. I would've assumed it would fall back to HDR. Thanks.

fwiw kodi does support dolby vision, in specific scenarios - https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=372462
it will require capable device(s)
file metadata also needs to be present for kodi to detect it
you could post/check the Debug Log to see which decoders are present in the shield
not familiar with apple's videos

Is there something specific I should be looking for in the log?
RE: Kodi v20 on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 doesn't play iPhone 13 Pro videos in HDR - izprtxqkft - 2023-05-07
heres someone elses log i randomly grabbed a link to https://paste.kodi.tv/imewagabix
line 119 through 158 show the decoders present, your log should show something similar, look for something like dv* or dvhe*
i dont own a shield to be more specific for you
also, a quick internet search turned up this link to enable dolby vision on the shield, it may have some value for you - https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/shield/support/shield-tv/enable-dolby-vision-hdr10-on-shield

Thanks! I found the section and I only see OMX.Nvidia.DOVI.decode that looks like it's dolby vision related. The Nvidia shield can support dolby vision. I have the setting enabled and Netflix shows DV and some videos in Plex can too. Kodi just can't seem to do it especially with these particular iPhone video files.

Thanks! Here's a quick sample of a file taken with my iPhone that's in DV as well as the media info data.

Tested that sample on my Shield TV Pro and LG OLED and it played in Dolby Vision for me so we're going to need a debug log to find out why it's not working for you.
RE: Kodi v20 on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 doesn't play iPhone 13 Pro videos in HDR - brazen1 - 2023-05-07
Plays for me using Windows v21 on a non DV panel auto converted to HDR10.

Thanks all. That's interesting that it's working for you guys. I downloaded some sample dolby vision files and those don't work either or they play with the colors all messed up. Logs below.

You're running Nexus (v20) when you need to be running Omega (v21).

RE: Kodi v20 on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 doesn't play iPhone 13 Pro videos in HDR - ilikehtpc - 2023-05-08
Oh I see. This means it's not currently available in the official build but will be in the next upcoming version of Kodi correct?
RE: Kodi v20 on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 doesn't play iPhone 13 Pro videos in HDR - ilikehtpc - 2023-05-09
Ok I tried the latest v21 build and it all played great. No issues with the few videos I tried. Looking forward to the next release! Also really wished there was a native app for AppleTV too
