I’ve been reading reviews and when it comes to the HDR feature, nobody really says much more than “It does HDR!”
Has anyone seen anything on the QUALITY of the HDR? Because it really does seem to be screen dependent.
I have a 4K and 8K Samsung television and I’ve had to disable HDR on every device connected to them because the picture is dark, muddy, and borderline unwatchable.
I would hope Valve’s implenentation would be better, because, well, frankly, anyone will be better than what Samsung is doing.
Many times, sitting going through the rtings settings line by line. Only thing that works is disabling HDR.
The weird thing is that you can see the difference live on screen at the same time. The main image is HDR, muddy, dark, and unwatchable, but the thumbnail image when FF and RW is bright, clean, and clear because HDR isn’t applied to the thumbnails.
Just found the thread on the Samsung forums you got those pictures from haha. I don’t know why your issue frustrates me so much but it does! Determined to solve this.
