Hi.
I understand Plasma 6 supports HDR now.
Does anyone have it enabled?
Does it work?
Can you use media players with HDR?
Browsers?

Thanks in advance!

My experience with HDR in the desktop environment isn't fantastic because color in SDR content (including things like icons) gets washed out in my experience. I'd love to run HDR, but as long as the color rendering is worse than SDR mode I'm not going to leave it on.

It would be nice to get HDR support, at least for full screen HDR media reproduction, both personal and professionally recorded.

AFAIK you can use HDR with MPV in KDE and in gnome 48(not in gentoo yet).
Cant test, my screen is nominally HDR. So I see support is there, but how well it works...
