@laichiaheng - kodi is bound to a specific version of ffmpeg which is generally older than Arch's package. We avoid incompatibilities by using that specific version (ie internal ffmpeg). Recommend that you build kodi in clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

graysky the problem is I can't do that, since I get kodi-git binary from Chaotic-AUR, and I'm guessing it sees only gles. I'm used to have HEVC working for too many years, and can't see why changing it now. Mayby you can make gl the default then let peeps choose gles on demand.

@csts - I commented on your issue but mirroring here for coverage:

Please see line 24 in the PKGBUILD wherein you need to define the _renderer variable to a value of either gles or gl.

@graysky, a Kodi dev mentioned you switched build to GLES, and that's why I get a black screen with HEVC:

@kevku - fixed in latest commit and yes, this PKGBUILD mirrors the official one which build both gl and gles separately. I guess I can modify it to have a variable define which one to build...

you removed provides=kodi-dev from the kodi-git-dev package. this pkgbuild also now builds everything twice which is pointless waste of time for 99% of people.

@ilikenwf - latest commit builds both gl and gles

You may want to make it an option, either during build live or in the PKGBUILD, to select using GL or GLES.

Using GBM, I believe HDR would only work with this instead of gl:

               -DAPP_RENDER_SYSTEM=gles

I have already submitted this adjustment as a pull request to the official package as well. It doesn't seem to change any of the experience or functionality, however reading around it seems gles provides more to kodi now than gl, which is funny since gl is more "full fat." @graysky
