I need Hdr and vrr to work and a replacement for madvr that can make movies look as good as it can.

That’s what’s holding me, and multiple people I know, from moving to Linux.

The hdr and vrr seems to be about there but as far as I understand there’s still not an equivalent to madvr.

Why is that an easy block? The user you responded to was cordial, laid out his reasons and even provided some sources to corroborate. What exactly did he do wrong in your mind?

It seems like some distros have HDR working on most things.

I’ve been wanting to move from windows to Linux for about 10 years now but there’s always been something that Linux just didn’t do that stopped me.

I look into it every few years and now it seems like the only thing missing is the last few HDR hickups.

For a long time my issue with moving was that there was nothing on Linux that could compare to madvr. It seems like mpv is getting close.

Hopefully it’ll all get done before the support for windows 10 ends.

If video/audio playback and HDR is completely fixed before then I believe a lot of people will move to Linux rather than Windows 11.

That depends who you ask.

When you say it seems to have better HDR, is that deduced from watching the video or looking at these screen shots? Because if we’re talking about the screen shots I’d have to disagree.

Do you use a monitor with hdr and if so have you experienced issues with that?
