Support for U7K with Mediatek MT9618 chipset (Pentonic 700)
#1
Recently bought a new U7K Hisense TV (Android/GoogleTV) and installed the latest dev build of Kodi 21. It plays everything fine, except DolbyVision files (Atmos audio comes through fine, but the screen remains blank).
My Hisense U8H (very slightly older) works great with DV through Kodi.

This page indicates the chipset is a Mediatek MT9618. I also understand that this chip is alternately known as the Pentonic 700.

Both Jellyfin and Plex play DV videos perfectly on the TV.

Please let me know if there's any info I can pull to help with any development of support for this chipset/TV.

Cheers
Dhry

I was able to play MP4 DV as of the nightly release on 11/25. HEIC does not appear to play still.
