DV AV1 Profile 10 & HDR10+ AV1

Help and Support Vero V
1

So, this is obviously a new DV profile (in 10-bit AV1), not something I was expecting most (if any) current media players to play, but to my surprise a couple, including Vero V, do. However, it plays as HDR vs. DV in V & other players that do play it (Ugoos SK1/CE, Homatics w/CE). Wondering if DV is possible? Just curious as all we have at this point are a few test clips floating around, like this one.

It’s WIP.

Edit: With the next OSMC update, that one will play as DV or, if DV is not available or disabled, as HDR10+.

None of the AV1s on the Kodi samples page have dynamic metadata AFAICT. If anyone’s got any samples, in particular with compatibility 0, 2 or 4 let us know.

Had added those to Kodi Samples wiki as they were all I could find, but yes, if anyone has AV1 w/dynamic metadata, happy to add them… and host them as well.

Update…
@grahamh, will these do? I clipped parts of a DV & a HDR10+, and used the latest Hardbrake nightly to reencode to AV1 10-bit with metadata passthrough:

Both play fine with the latest patches, thanks! (ie DV and HDR10+ are engaged)

This should now be implemented in the staging repository and will be released as a stable update shortly. Some testing would be appreciated.

To test this update:

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Run the following command to add the staging repository:
    echo 'deb http://apt.osmc.tv bullseye-devel main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list
  3. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  4. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you remove /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list after updating.

This will deactivate the staging repository. You can do so with the following command:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list.

Please note that we will automatically disable this update channel after 14 days on your device in case you forget to do so to ensure that your system reverts to the stable update channel.
