Kodi service add-on for KDE Plasma on Wayland. When a video starts it sets
the output resolution, refresh rate and HDR with kscreen-doctor to match
the video, and restores the desktop mode when playback stops.
Kodi cannot change the display mode itself under Wayland, which is why this add-on exists.
- Kodi 21 or newer, running in a KDE Plasma 6 Wayland session
kscreen-doctor(Debian/Ubuntu:libkscreen-bin)
- Output: the output to switch;
autouses the first active one. Change it with Choose output. - Switch HDR: enable HDR for HDR10/HLG/Dolby Vision videos.
- Allow 4K at 50/60 Hz: off by default, as many HDMI links cannot carry it.
- Pause after mode change: seconds to wait for the TV to resync.
