I was finally able to fix the washed out issue when enabling HDR.
Turns out my TV has known HDR issues with devices like the AppleTV Apple Discussion I reset the picture to default. Opened the picture menu where it displays the signal. Enabled HDR on the Display Configuration and this time instead of washed out, it was an actual proper HDR desktop.
THANK YOU. I added the options to my ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf and everything is working. For some reason I was running with vo=gpu instead of vo=gpu-next .
I really appreciate the discussion, it seems I didn’t quite understand how the HDR implementation works and was looking at it the wrong way. It makes sense now. I was way overthinking it.
Okay. So it’s working. And probably has been working. I’ve been trying to test it with video all this time. VLC and MPV. I decided to setup HDR with Hell Divers and it’s working.
Appreciate the response!
Are you using a DP -> HDMI converter? I know they can be temperamental.
Nope, those converters do not allow the HDMI 2.1 spec.
I’m running 6.10.x kernel on plasma 6.1.4. I’ve been bleeding edge because of the NVIDIA card for years now. I’ve been played with gamescope HDR, ICC profiles and everything you can think of since it was first possible.
I’ll have to play with it some more when I have time.
TV does not recognize HDR mode even though enabling HDR in the Display Configuration does blank the TV for a second when turning it on/off.
It’s not unexpected at all. Throwing in some drivers and whatnot is trivial compared to what Valve has already done with their OS. This is has always been part of their plan.
disappointed.
I wouldn’t be. I appreciate the work done so far by KDE and the Plasma team. They just started support with plasma 6. It will improve.
Bazzite
I wouldn’t count on them to solve it. It’s not like they have anything to do with Plasma desktop. They just package existing software in their own distro.
Thanks for the info
Thing is, the colors on my HDR display are all washed out on the desktop if I enable HDR. Specially without a color profile. Are you using a color profile?
Are you enabling HDR on the Display Configuration panel before starting the game or just leaving it off and only enabling HDR with gamescope?
That’s because it’s not exactly a great point. Look, we’re all glad they caught up to 1980’s bbs tech, but it’s behind a login screen. YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO ACCESS IT.
Discord had always been a square peg beaten with a hammer to fit in a round hole. Eventually gaining basic features for the things it was never meant to be used for. Forcing people to sell themselves out just to read some documentation on an open source project.
