HDR logo - Enhancement?
Would it be atall possible to add a HDR logo to the area drawn in the photo which will display when selecting HDR files?
My apologies, I didn't realise it may not be possible, when i just see it being used in this source select screen I imagined it may have been possible to add
The add-on is parseing in Python The actual torrent filename to display that info(txt string .HDR. )The player/skin doesn't always have access to that filename or have The ability to parse a string value from that text. It would have to be meta info passed from addon to skin or officially supported in Kodi. though a list item variable.
If you can find a example in a skins player osd that displays it . That would work with all add-ons. Then that would allow us to see how to do it.
Fair enough mate, not sure if it can be done then, I've never noticed it on any other skin.
It's possible but you'd have to rename EVERY media file and add in the media info tags.
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=351883 Looks like this guy puts the media info in the filename and AEON MQ displays it.
Here's a skin that, looks like, implements this.: https://github.com/b-jesch/skin.estuary.modv2
Here's the skin player osd:

File name flagging
If you want to use special flags like HDR or Dolby Vision or special 3D formats you have to name your files with proper tags, preferably before the file extension:
| 3D with stereoscopic detection |
MVC codec | Side by Side | Top and Bottom | HDR Files | HDR+ Files | Dolby Vision |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| no tagging or 3d | 3d.mvc | 3d.sbs | 3d.tab | .hdr., .10bit. | .hdrplus., .12bit. | .dv., .dovi., .dolbyvision. |
The HDR type recognition by filename will be removed if Kodi detects the HDR type itself properly.
I installed that skin, seems to work for my files. I don't have any 4k movies/shows though or HDR.
very interesting skin btw, the disc with the discart on it in the last photo was spinning... It also stops spinning if you pause the video.
Hovering over settings icon on main menu shows this:
Just did a little research on this, it look like they added the ability to "Detect, store and process the type of HDR in a video file" in PR #19983
I don't know how this works yet, but I would assume this would take a lot more work than it looks like. You have to decompile the textures, add new images for HDR and add code to reference it, and then recompile the textures.
If anyone has an HDR image pack that looks like it would match the flags we already use, please post a link to the images themselves or post them here
Here are the ones we are using atm:
