Any plan to add hdr support?

Please provide the following info.

NVidia Geforce Experience version:
Moonlight Embedded version:
Moonlight Embedded source: repository/included in distribution/compiled from source/...
Moonlight Embedded running on: Raspberry Pi/Cubox-i/Hummingboard/Other linux device/...
Moonlight Embedded running on distribution: Arch Linux/Raspbian/OpenELEC/...

Verbose output -verbose of Moonlight Embedded:

What is the expected result?

What happens instead of that?

The core code for HDR should be pretty trivial. The challenge is supporting the various video backends and testing on HDR-capable hardware.

What platform are you looking for HDR support for?

Sorry for the late response. I am using a moonlight-embedded build named Luna for CoreELEC, which is based on Kodi for Amlogic hardware. Amlogic devices have a high market share in the TV media box, and it seems most TV released these years have HDR features.

I introduced the basic HDR plumbing with c2f21b9 which enables HDR with the -hdr option.

On the Amlogic side, it looks like amcodec does most of the heavy lifting for HDR. I was able to successfully enter HDR mode on a Vero 4K with the latest code in master.

Which Amlogic device are you using?

That's cool! I will try it later. And my device is TX3, with S905x3 SOC.

Hi @TheChoconut , can you merge this commit into your fork? This request may seem weird since I found my compilation buggy on CoreELEC.
