Could you build this?

No This involves low-level Linux kernel/graphics driver patching, custom DRM/KMS HDMI signaling for proprietary Dolby Vision tunneling, and compiling bespoke LibreELEC OS images.

What it would actually take: Requires deep Linux graphics stack and embedded OS engineering: patching Intel i915 DRM/KMS kernel drivers to output Dolby Vision RGB-tunneling (LLDV) over HDMI, modifying FFmpeg/Kodi video rendering pipelines for dynamic DV RPU metadata processing, and maintaining custom LibreELEC buildroot toolchains.
