I updated my system (haven't done it for ages) and now I am unable to play HDR videos again (Kodi is playing them using sw, but super slow so not useful at all) @royk are you currently able to play HDR videos with some kind of workaround? Thanks in advance

@OttawaHacker as far as I am aware moonlight requires the host to be running on Windows, but my host PC is a Linux one. Do you know if it is possible to use moonlight using a Linux host?

@OttawaHacker I managed to stream games from pc to the OPI 5. What I did was install steam on the orange PI and then stream games from another steam installed in my desktop PC (you can run non steam games this way too) Basically installed panfork drivers on Orange pi and then installed box64, box86, winex86, winetricks and steam using this script https://github.com/NicoD-SBC/armbian-gaming/tree/main The only problem I had was that the sound was crackling while streaming games. I read it may be related to the sampling rates and tried to change them to 48khz, but it didn't fix the crackling issue. If you manage to fix the sound thing, please let me know what you did Thanks

Thank you Royk, I was aware of that librelec link, but was not sure if It was up to date. I can play HDR, but not HDR 10 plus, which i guess it IS still not implementes in Linux

I am trying to play some dolby vision movies in Armbian (Orange pi 5) but the colours are not accurate. Do you know if it is possible to play DV movies and how? Thankd

Thank you @royk and @amazingfate I've just tried to play some HDR 10bit videos and now they play fine. Also if I play 4k videos from chromium they are playing fine without cpu usage I've installed VLC and tried to play some HDR 10bit videos and they can also be played. However, it seems they are being played through CPU, as I can see one core at 100% all the time. Does anyone know how to make VLC (or any other standalone player) to play the videos using the gpu? Thanks

In my case, one of the videos which didn´t work was HDR10 (I think it has no DRM, but don´t know for sure). That same video played properly on my debian amd64. @amazingfate Do you know if the Kernel issue you mentioned would apply in a case where the same video can be played in debian amd64? Also is there any solution to play the same videos which work on Linux amd64 on armbian? Thank you

I am on the same situation as @luizkun have installed Kodi following all the steps and can watch some movies, but others won't work (x265 hevc), . Will just get a blank screen with audio and subtitles working fine, but no image. Have you managed to sort this out? I have followed the guide and verified everything is fine: gbm, drm_prime, direct to plane, etc @amazingfate@royk please could you assist to resolve this? I am happy to follow any steps to provide additional information you may need or upload some sample videos for you to try to recreate the issue
