Issue with Windows 11 shows white as yellow on HDR displays, fix will arrive within a month

As hdr isnt bugged enough.

 

It's honestly trash on my oddysey G7. Glad i don't have to use it .

I tried new Halo and it enabled HDR by default , colors are washed out and its to bright , i don't even found slider/option to disable it . Impossible to play enabled.

 

I was gonna ask sb about hdr on g7,since it's a great monitor and the review says hdr on it is pretty good
maybe it's the game ?
how about other games ?
I heard fc5 has a great hdrr implementation.Did you try it ?

we're talking the va g7,not the ips one ?

 

And the G7 should be one of the good ones lol, 600nits.

 

You need to oversaturate and adjust brightness/contrast to compensate, once you got it set to look as good as you got SDR on you desktop while HDR is enabled you shuold be set.
No idea if you can do so with that new Halo game, need to set ingame max nit to 1K.

 

I'm on Win 11, with a G7 27'' and a MSI Gaming X Trio 3090 RTX

HDR works flawlessly with Halo and Forza Horizon 5.

Auto HDR works fine with Civ VI and other games.

What firmware has yours?

Has configured your screen corretly?

What graphic card you own?

 

Just to balance out all the hate in this comment section i have zero problems with any games, photos, photo editing, Video, Video editing or streaming on my setup with HDR or auto hdr.

 

I have the 32" oddysey G7 VA and i think the only game which i allow HDR is Doom Eternal.

Switching it to 10bit instead of 8bit is pointless for me as i think most HDR content actually looks worse in my opinion but i'm still on Win 10 and of course haven't used Win 11's auto HDR feature.

 

As someone stated on TV "there too much white on TV screen" (someone that i don't remember her name, because she is stupid despite have been in Time frontpage)
Once out of the original context it might fit there

More on topic: Why let machine set video for you?

 

"certain picture editing tools may not display colors correctly on HDR monitors."
HDR in gaming is a bit of a mess right now, but this doesn't have anything to do with Halo, Auto HDR, cheap HDR monitors, or gaming.
This issue showed up in Photoshop months ago when Windows 11 was released, and in general users were advised to remain on a tested OS until Windows 11 was validated.

 

Me too! But f*ck Windows 11.

 

Honestly I was really disappointed in HDR.
A few games looked spectacular with it.
Shadow of Tomb Raider was wow.

Others looked insanely washed out/overbright/ and having to toggle it on and off per game was not worth it.

 

Can I be "that guy" who will tell you that basically any non-OLED display is trash for HDR gaming?

 

Yeah... as soon as LG Display starts mass producing cheaper 27" about size OLED displays we will then finally get decent HDR on monitors. Right now we are still stuck with manufacturers flogging us way overpriced ancient LCD technology which has been marketed to death and people fooled into buying with gimmickry like 240Hz and other such snake oil.

 

Absolutely.
It was a VA 32:9 panel.

I didnt buy it for HDR but still was very disappointed.

 

I can only support the opinion of "that guy" i had an good LG LCD 4K HDR Capable TV hooked up to my pc for 2 years and every HDR game looked really bad
and i never was able to calibrate it to look right. And as soon that i switched to an OLED TV i saw perfect HDR in every capable game.

Maybe the good Mini LED Monitors/TV´s can match it somewhat but i doubt it.

 

Sadly they're too large for folk like me. Bring on the 35/40" versions without gimped specs to save me from tennisneckitus.

 

Hello dear friend's
For Games that use force SDR ==> HDR - IMPORTANT!! - set your TV black level to low
For Games that use HDR ==> HDR native (Shadow of the Tomb Raider) - IMPORTANT - set you TV black level to high
And thats it
You welcome and have a nice day.

 

The more time passes, the more I think Microsoft should call this product Pandora.

Very often, when a computer boots up in Pandora, messes something.
