Dolby Vision Profile, VS10, plus other info on skins

I know, Its little bug, but not for me.
I have maybe 20 movies with eac3 atmos, all works fine with the detection.
The other 3-400 movie has just truhd atmos or dts-x …

147

I have one movie with an issue detecting Atmos (EAC3), but the rest work fine as long as we don’t try to trigger the “Atmos” bug.

Triggering the Atmos bug (in Player Info) on multi-track files that don’t contain Atmos at all is not normal (even if it has to be triggered manually).

Same as you for Atmos (TrueHD) and DTS:X, I haven’t seen any issues so far (I don’t have any files with TrueHD only, without Atmos).

148

Yes, its very small issue, but agree, you can force that.
When improvement coming then ok, when not, for me its perfect the current state.

I made these skin modification for myself, but pleasure share with others.

Despite the open issue with EAC3 and Dolby Atmos (EAC3) could you please make a version you planned for cpm A5 for Arctic Fuse. When the problem is solved you can update.

I will do it.

151

Thank you.

152

The problem is with non-Atmos streams with eac3 being shown as Atmos, so of course all your Atmos files are working ok :slight_smile:

153

It’s not 100% reliable in both cases (Atmos with EAC3 and EAC3 only). :sweat_smile:

The “Atmos” bug can be triggered if there are multiple EAC3 audio tracks (whether Atmos or not).

Edit: or single EAC3 audio tracks.

Replacing the Includes_Labels.xml file in Arctic Fuse 2 loses this fix introduced in version v2.1.0 - Display add-on title in the main hub header #168:

Not that it’s a problem, but if you can correct it.

156

Corrected, I uploaded the latest version (v2.1.2).

Very good job. I felt in love with horizon 2 back again. But I still got one issue guys. When I play higher bitrate stream, the player cache fills pretty fast. But once I open media info I can see how slowly (lets say 1% per 2s) goes down. If I left it long enough I’m able to go to the 0% till the stream stops. So it seems that the info stops downloading.

158

Which one skin ?
Anyway I completelly switched off the kodi cache, with the new builded dinamic cache, that seems no need for me.

159

I’m currenly on horizon 2, but I switched to zephyr to test it and it’s the same. What do you mean by dynamic cache? I tought there’s just new caching options to set it via gui.

160

New dinamic cache separate to video and audio.
Its a part of CoreElec.
Not in the setting, builded.

161

Is there any topic about it? I would like to know more

162

What are you talking about?

163

There’s not much detail, but see @Portisch 's last two posts here:

164

Dynamic cache can you see in the playerdebuginfo. It separate from kodi cache.
Use cpm’s estuary A5 modded skin, I added there one button for that.

Button mapping script to toggle VS10 Engine On/Off v1.1

New: Added ability to toggle VS10 Engine on/off during video playback by remote. The updated script has to be mapped as both Global and Fullscreen Video shortcuts.

Description: This script changes the Kodi Settings > System > CoreELEC > For SDR8, SDR10, HDR10, HDR10+, HLG between off and the previous value. The VS10 status notification pop-up is anchored to the state of SDR8.

Comment out any settings in the script you don’t wanted toggled.
example: to only toggle VS10 Engine on/off for SDR8 and SDR10 videos:

SETTINGS = [
    "coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.sdr8",
    "coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.sdr10",
    #"coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.hdr10",
    #"coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.hdr10plus",
    #"coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.hdrhlg",
    #"coreelec.amlogic.dolbyvision.vs10.dv"
]

Setup Instructions

  1. Open Keymap Editor Kodi Addon, and map Minimise to the remote button you want to use to toggle VS10 on/off

    a) Edit > Global > System > Minimise > Edit key
    b) Edit > Fullscreen Video > System > Minimise > Edit key
    Save & Exit Keymap Editor

  2. Open SSH, copy & paste the command below:

    sed -i 's|>minimize<|>runscript(/storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/toggle_vs10.py)<|g' /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/gen.xml

  3. Copy toggle_vs10.py to:

    Samba Userdata/keymaps/toggle_vs10.py
    [/storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/toggle_vs10.py]

  4. Restart Kodi
