Tried again while directly connected to the screen rather than via the amp, set ‘422,12bit’ in rc.local and rebooted and again got a very lime tinted screen.
OK, so setting the UI resolution of Kodi to 2160p/60 with 422,12bit set works but as soon as I play a 4k HDR 24fps clip it returns to lime tinted.
Echoing 2160p60hz420 to /sys/class/display/mode returns it to the expected colours.
Echoing 2160p60hz to /sys/class/display/mode is lime.
Echoing 2160p24hz to /sys/class/display/mode is lime.
Can you chuck me a log for this?
I should be able to make your TV prefer 12-bit, and as such, always use it. Might take a couple of rounds of testing though, provided you’re willing.
No lime as in the screen is very green as if no blue channel is being displayed. I’ll provide a log as soon as I can, do you just want me to restart and play a file, is that enough?
Any news on this? No difference in October build.
I’ve tested on another LG (65b6) and the flickering is there as well. I also bought a shield which doesn’t have the flickering, hdr or not. It however has some other issues (like randomly powering off and not being able to dither/change color space). Whichever video mode I chose on the shield it’s without flicker so I guess it’s a lg/vero comparability issue or something.
Hi, just bought Vero 4k and I also get flickering in hdr videos with my LG65B6V. Second problem : framerate drops with large h265 playback, sounds stops, unwatchable. OSMC update didn’t help.
Hope you’ll fix these issues soon, not satisfied at the moment.
This is a bit of a long shot but I wondered if those with an LG tv could switch on noise reduction in the picture mode settings to see if it fixes the problem. The reason I’m posting is that I’m currently using Infuse on an Apple TV 4k and notice a similar flickering although this occurs in dark scenes on 24hz content on SDR content. Common traits however are that switching to 60hz fixes the issue and the flicker is also visible when pausing.
I noticed that switching noise reduction to low or auto makes the problem vanish so thought it was worth a shot for those persevering with the Vero 4k?
Hi I just tried with a 60fps 4k hdr video, which has flickering in the skies (the crawling dslr like) and changing noise or mpeg noise reduction did nothing
