Although tunneled playback is enabled on the player in the client, without proper extractor support, HDR will not work.

Here's a snippet from youtube-dl, as you can see, all HDR content has Itag of 33x:

Than we should add HDR support.
One should find an add the corresponding itag, and add it to this list.

@theScrabi: Won't we also have to add some HDR flag to it?

[theScrabi]

It was better if we did.

This would be very cool to have, also for using NewPipe on Android TV!

Thanks for the heads-up! I currently don't have access to the TV to try, but maybe @f-heeger can have a look?
