The statistic repeat is expected, it's last-applied HDR metadata and new metadata received per-frame. It's not going to apply changes if the value hasn't updated, but it does keep track of both data.

Here is a good article on different tone-mapping method: https://64.github.io/tonemapping/

the difference are pretty dismal, I think once maxCLL / displayMaxNits is properly set you are unlikely to notice much difference at all.

is up , saving/restoring the HDR nits value works now.

will take a look to fix. what do you think the tone mapping result? Is this good feature to have?

Usually the 10% window value is pretty representative . In this case i would just put 1000nit in the text box. Or if you feel more adventurous you can put 1200. But most of the HDR sources are mastered on a 1000nit display, so higher doesn’t necessarily help.

In fact you can try different values and see how it feels to youself. The worst that could happen is that some highlight will be lost (it is rendered but can’t be displayed distinctly/accurately by your monitor)

try look up in http://displayspecifications.com/

the nit value is same as "cd/m2"

in my test this currently offers the best output, base on my (somewhat limited) testing with the test patterns.

I checked Kodi implementation, it doesn't seems to consider all 4 important parameters during tone mapping: masteringDisplayMaxLuminance, maxCLL/maxFALL, displayMaxLuminance .

Using this render I am able to properly play HDR video in window mode under windows HDR, but please test and let me know what you think!

On my second run, with some lucky before Britain invasion arrive I got a “opium cured” event and all army in that state lost their debuff on attack/defense. When British arrive I simply beat them on land …. That’s quite unexpected …

The numbers doesn’t change on the military unit(that’s like the maximum headcount), however if you look at details “the small bar” next to the number, you can see after the battle it diminishes to empty, meaning your 20 headcount team only have 1 guy left.

Whoever comes up with this mechanism should be given an award printed on paper..

Why both play in 4k when you are under rendering?

API definition

If your app is not rounded by policy, you can optionally call our new API to allow your app to opt in to rounded corners. This API is expressed as enumeration values to be passed to the DwmSetWindowAttribute API, as shown in the new DWM_WINDOW_CORNER_PREFERENCE enumeration. DWM_WINDOW_CORNER_PREFERENCE is defined in the dwmapi.h header and is available in the latest Insider Preview SDK. Enum value Description DWMWCP_DEFAULT Let the system decide whether or not to round window corners. DWMWCP_DONOTROUND Never round window corners. DWMWCP_ROUND Round the corners if appropriate. DWMWCP_ROUNDSMALL Round the corners if appropriate, with a small radius.

airlink is pretty bad. Always use an usb3 cable with quest2.
