darwin: fix layout image to get 4K enabled under tvos


That means, now 4K content is played at the correct display resolution

No problems on my old ATV 4. I thought there were issues, but I turns out the Plex server was down.

No issues with playback (minus HDR files), audio tests were good, EDL files were used correctly (I only have them set as 3 - Commercial Break), scanning was good, the keyboard still comes up...

Got settled in to temporary living so am able to play a bit.

I don't see a problem at this time. I only have a suggestion. That is to edit the plex transcoding options so that HEVC is separate from VC1 in the transcoding options. That way we can use the native HEVC decoding but still have Plex transcode VC1.

P.S. seems to me that CPU usage from HEVC is lower than h264!

done, separated vc1 and hevc in settings

I haven't been able to test for a while, but my short tests of yesterday on ATV 4K suggest that everything is just fine; I can throw everything at it and it just plays

P.S. my only criticism is the 24fps playback, but it is awn Apple's issue and not MrMC's; I wonder if it is ever coming!

Thanks for the continued efforts.

bingo, MrMC can do 4K HDR video content correctly under the ATV4K set to '4K - HDR' but only under CDVDVideoCodecAVFoundation (for now). This decodes and renders to a direct to a UIView/CALayer via AVSampleBufferLayer. That Layer is below our 8bit RGBA OpenGLES layer and tvOS knows how to blend them together properly. Nice pretty colors without flattening and the GUI colors are still correct.

But A/V sync is buggered under CDVDVideoCodecAVFoundation so that will have to wait until 3.3 before it gets re-enabled

On my Samsung UHDTV, I had to enable 'UHD Color' for the HDMI input to get '4K - HDR' to show up on the ATV4K.

and if I recall correctly last time AVF was enabled and tested it wouldn't play some types of h264, even that which Plex transcoded.

Works all very well
But i can't Test 4K, i don't have ATV 4K yet.
