Tried it again a few months ago when HDR support first dropped in KDE. It didn't work at all. Everything was desaturated and dim. Literally the opposite of what HDR is supposed to do.
I'm giving it another year before I try Linux again. Hopefully the bugs are sorted by then.
Yeah, HDR is one of my main hangups as well. Very interested in moving my living room gaming PC over (the only place I deal with Windows), but I need a lot of things to just work with little to no hassle, and also no hit to performance. I didn't build a very expensive PC for a compromised experience, as much as Windows is regularly a massive PITA.
I've been using Endeavour with KDE and HDR on for almost a year. I had to install the "vk-hdr-layer-kwin6-git" package and now HDR works on desktop and in mpv/smplayer/haruna for both hdr10 and DV content. Games also work, but they require some steam launch arguments which aren't exactly user friendly.
Ideally this will "just work" in The Futureโข...
I'm on EndeavourOS trying to get some Steam games to work with HDR, would you mind pointing me towards some information on these launch arguments you mentioned? I'd like to see if I can get it working. Thanks!
