Why my vlc can't play hdr correctly?

[liuyuxin]

Hello guys,
I build vlc source code successful on my mac. But when I use it to play HDR file, it looks like SDR.
I download vlc-3.0.8.dmg from official web sit, it play the same HDR file correctly.
Could you please tell me how can I build vlc source code to play HDR correctly?

the following is my configure:
/Users/username/open_source_code/vlc/extras/package/macosx/../../../configure --prefix=/Users/username/open_source_code/vlc/build/vlc_install_dir --enable-macosx --enable-merge-ffmpeg --enable-osx-notifications --enable-faad --enable-flac --enable-theora --enable-shout --enable-ncurses --enable-twolame --enable-realrtsp --enable-libass --enable-macosx-qtkit --enable-macosx-avfoundation --disable-skins2 --disable-xcb --disable-caca --disable-pulse --disable-sdl-image --disable-vnc --with-macosx-version-min=10.11 --build=x86_64-apple-darwin18 --host=x86_64-apple-darwin18 --with-macosx-version-min=10.11 --with-macosx-sdk=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/

Thanks

VLC will always play your HDR content as SDR on macOS because we don't support correct HDR on this platform yet. Your configure line is correct, but compiling the sources yourself will not add this missing feature.

Thank for your reply.

Is there any way to get the missing feature?
I found the vlc-3.0.8.dmg from official web sit contain the following plugins ,but my build vlc don't contain.
Is it because I lack these plugin, so my build vlc can't play HDR like official vlc-3.0.8.dmg ?
Can I build these plugin on my mac?

I believe that you didn’t understand my previous response. HDR playback is not supported on macOS! We will add it in a future release but we are far from ready.

Is this still not supported?

Regrettably, this is still not supported. It will be added in version 4.
