While HDR works fine in gaming mode now, applications like Moonlight and Retroarch do not detect my device as HDR compatible, Is there a simple reason for this or fix?

Sunshine uses a service that runs even in game mode

Kyle Gospo•6/8/24, 4:09 PM

Install with our ujust and give it a try

Might want to check with them how they're detecting HDR

Kyle Gospo•6/8/24, 4:10 PM

Could be you need to use gamescope

I’m running from inside of game mode for it, which id assume makes it run inside gamescope by default. Is there specific launch commands I should try? Flatpak launch commands I’m not familiar with since it’s already full of stuff

Which moonlight version, flatpak or appimage?

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:15 PM

Retroarch claims their vulkan video drivers checks for “pixel formats and color spaces”

Mmatt_schwartz Which moonlight version, flatpak or appimage?

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:15 PM

Flatpak, should I give the app image a shot?

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 4:17 PM

Yeah I struggled with the flatpak in the past not detecting HDR properly for some reason. Although the appimage may have the same issue now… been a few months since I’ve checked though

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:19 PM

Appimage allows me to select HDR

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:19 PM

Still puzzled by Retroarch though. It’s probably on their end

Viesta•6/8/24, 4:23 PM

im sad that bazzite doesn't come with an autoclicker. ;(

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:23 PM

Are their any wayland autoclickers yet

Viesta•6/8/24, 4:23 PM

you think there would be especially with gaming on the rise

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:28 PM

Gotta love VRR on cheap monitors

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:33 PM

I’m curious if not detecting HDR is related to how bazzite interacts with Flatpak. The Flatpak version of Moonlight detects hdr on the steam deck oled without any problems

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 4:35 PM

That’s exactly what I noticed back in December actually

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 4:35 PM

I could not figure out why that was the case unfortunately

malexOP•6/8/24, 4:38 PM

Same thing for the Retroarch Flatpak. I’d switch to appimage but its broken in dumb ways

So how would I skip the login screen? I’m in just the regular OS mode/install

ProtoScrawl•6/8/24, 4:46 PM

Has anyone done performance comparisons in games between Bluefin and Bazzite? I'm on the fence about which to switch to for mixed gaming and software dev when the Nvidia 555 drivers release

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:54 PM

They're basically 1:1. If you're looking for gaming though go Bazzite as it has steam and whatnot pre-installed.

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:54 PM

Layering steam is a bitch and the flatpak kinda sucks

ProtoScrawl•6/8/24, 4:55 PM

Thanks for the info

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 4:55 PM

kde

VValerie What desktop?

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 4:59 PM

just found it

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:59 PM

Ah cool

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 5:04 PM

had to search for SDDM. im really new to this, havent played with any distros for a loooong time

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 5:04 PM

this is the best exp ive found so far though!

Doesn't bazzite also use custom kernel?

Aasen23 Doesn't bazzite also use custom kernel?

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:09 PM

It's the Fedora kernel with modifications, it's not making miracles.

asen23•6/8/24, 5:09 PM

I know but it is a little bit better tho right?

asen23•6/8/24, 5:10 PM

Like if 1% improvement is small but 1% more than 0% i guess

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:10 PM

It has the capability to be slightly better. Check out the linux experiment's video, "gaming" modifications for distros more often than not do not a whole lot.
