MThe HDR presentation of almost any modern curated video content ie blu ray, netflix, etc, is a superior viewing experience to SDR
KI don't see any layered packages here, and it says you've got a newer image you can boot into
Kreboot and run it again
NCan anyone point me how to change my grub order on bazzite?
Kwhat are you trying to accomplish
NI want windows to be my default and Bazzite my second option
KI'm not sure you can
NGotcha, thanks
MThe problem is that you need a screen that actually supports HDR to its fullest, so 800 nits would probably be the minimum peak brightness you can get away with HDR looking correct. Otherwise, things will look overexposed or like vivid mode because its fake hdr displaying on like a 400 nit crappy LCD. I don't know much about what phones consider HDR these days
Tim going to test some game peformance in a steam game, waht do you suggest i use for on screen monitoring?
Kmangohud for frametime graphs/framerate, obs for recording
Tthanks ill take a look at the mangohud!
Dit annoys me to no end that the LG monitor i got does not include this spec, just says that it supports hdr
Dhow can i find the peak brightness through software?
Dor would i need some special instrument to measure it?
MYou would need equipment I think. I would check to see if RTINGS or something has a review of it, or try and find what panel it has inside
Dit’s nanoips, i know that for sure, but alright i’ll look into it on rtings
MDepending on the monitors age it may have a specific certification from VESA. They usually do like HDR400, 600, 800, 1000
5Honestly if the monitor is from >3 years ago its probably really bad. HDR 400 isn't even really HDR. And it didnt work on IPS monitors without local dimming which isn't great
5HDR is a ratio though. The max brightness of OLED TVs doesnt need to be as bright as LCD TVs. Though OLED TVs even from a few years ago go up to 1000 I think
5It can depend on your room. If your not willing to compromise on curtains or position. But I think OLED TV in a dark room is worth it
5And I dont know how they do HDR on phones but it usually looks good so idk
MOled have an infinite black level which throws a wrench in a normal conversation about it. HDR is actually more about contrast than brightness. The higher peak brightness the better, but it all depends on what the content is graded for, and there will be diminishing returns after a certain point. Yes, the higher contrast will be there, but can you even see it? I find more value in better contrast in dark areas than bright. So oled is superior
5Thats true. Theres HDR and then theres "LG's HDR test footage"
5I was watching the first episode of Kingdom on Netflix and I swear LG must have sponsored cause HDR looked amazing
5And I also like the dark cause I play a lot of horror games
5Makes me wonder how the HDR grading works on games though
MI think that 1000 nits is a realistic expectation going forward for consumer HDR. Maybe not on LCDs but I don’t think I’ll ever buy an lcd panel again if I can help it. It still looks better than SDR and can be obtained at reasonable prices
MIf the monitor market wasn’t price gouged trash panels all the time, we’d already have that in most gaming monitors
5Hopefully we wont have to buy LCD again when micro led is done
5I just bought the alienware QD-OLED when it came out cause I was done fucking with PC monitors
Tmy lg tv's hdr is dark and laggy lol
MI'd assume that as long as the engine and assets can take advantage of the larger color space, it should be scalable to your screen's brightness unlike graded films
MIronically on my OLED monitor I run it in HDR even for SDR content, because the colors in the SDR modes looks way too saturated for me, where the HDR presets look more accurate
Treally? if i encounter certain videos and stuff it will look all messd up in hdr
MObviously it will depend on the screen
5On mine it looks washed out but with HDR on it runs at a higher brightness so I occasionally turn it off when I'm just using desktop cause its too bright
TI meant where I encounter a video player or someting that doesnt like forced on hdr
MIt doesn’t help that hdr is currently bugged on plasma desktop either
Mwhere it’s super washed out unless you set color intensity to 80-100%
DQuick question: My brother was trying to rebase from Bazzite 40 to Silverblue 40 to test something and he's unable to rebase at all. We tried going to Bluefin 40 as well and nothing changes in the grub. It's very odd. Install/Uninstalling packages works.
DHe was having instability with games, they kept crashing his PC.
DBut yeah why can't he rebase?
KWhat command were you using to rebase?
Drpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/40/x86_64/silverblue
KThat should work, what error did you get running that?
Dnothing
Dit ran fine
Dbut it didn't get reflected in the grub or anything
KWhat does the output of status look like after running it?
