Dolby Vision Strange Colors - shangshiwoo - 2023-10-10
Hi, please, could someone give me some help on this:
I got installed Kodi 21 in my TV Sony 905f and when I tried to play "No One Will Save You", a 4k Dolby Vision MKV, the colors are not normal. The file is ok when I play it by the Sony's native player. The Kodi 21 new version is just fantastic, I hate to think I could not use it, please, some friend, help me on this.
Since now, I thank you for your attention.
Shang
P.S.: Excuse me if I posted it in a wrong place, I'm just a newbie.

according to this your tv model may have a known problem with dolby vision - https://www.reddit.com/r/bravia/comments/ucbb8w/infamous_x900fxf9005_dolby_vision_problem/
according to the specs i do not see dolby vision - https://www.sony.com.br/electronics/support/televisions-projectors-lcd-tvs-android-/xbr-55x905f/specifications
the file may play ok with the built-in player because it's defaulting to HDR instead of outputting dolby vision
you can post a Debug Log for a more detailed inspection, instructions in the link
it may actually be time to replace a 5 year old television though

Well, I have played files (mp4 and ts format) and Dolby Vison is quiet fine, by the way I played these same files using Kodi, and they were ok too (both Kodi and the TV showed the DV icon on screen). I start thinking the issue may be in the container (mkv), but I'm not so sure. I hope there is a solution, that not buying a new tv. Rsrs.
I thank you, again, and I'll try to do what you suggested.
