It was hard to describe whats going on so I recorded it.
I am trying to get windows 10 running on my TV through a VSX 531 receiver with 4k + HDR enabled.
Its a Windows 10 with AMD RX550 -> Pioneer VSX 531 -> Samsung KU7000 TV
When Connecting directly to the TV everything works with HDR and 10bit color space is selectable and working. I get the following info in dxdiag when connecting the RX550 directly to the TV and everything works fine.

It is when I put the receiver in the middle it fails as shown in the video, The specs does say the receiver supports HDCP 2.2 and Ultra HD (4K/60p/4:4:4) passthrough.

BUT when I turn off HDR settings on the TV A 4k picture works through the receiver but with HDR disabled so I get the following info in dxdiag.

I am thinking the problem is a HDCP handshake with the receiver when HDR is enabled on TV or the receiver is not fully 4k HDR passthrough compliant as advertised. I don't know if I should get a HDCP 2.2 stripper or just replace the receiver ?
