Under Display capabilities, look for the value next to HDR video streaming to see if it says Supported or Not supported.Įven if it says Supported for HDR video streaming, you might need to change some other settings to HDR video streaming. Īt the top, choose the display you want to check. To find out if a display is optimized for HDR video While these settings actually debuted earlier in the year for testers, and have been available for everyone since Windows 11's release last month, they’d gotten so little fanfare I figured I’d post about them today.You’ll be able to play streaming high dynamic range (HDR) video when your Windows PC has a display that’s optimized for HDR video (if you have HDR video streaming turned on in HDR settings). I’ve been testing this with a bunch of games and found that it worked every time, and that the slider was always best left set to its maximum.
Even better still, in games that don’t have their own HDR options, Windows 11 will take a swing at adjusting levels itself, and it does an excellent job. From inside the “Gaming Features” section of the Game Bar’s settings menu you can now tell Windows to automatically turn HDR on and off when booting and shutting down a recognised game (very useful for the “burning eyeballs” reason stated above), and once on, you can also adjust the intensity of the effect with a slider. The second is the inclusion of some HDR options within the Xbox Game Bar. The Xbox Game Bar’s HDR settings menu (clicking “ADJUST HDR INTENSITY” brings up a slider you can move and see the effects in real-time) This is great for not just quickly toggling the feature on and off, but for being able to do it quickly from within a game so you can check out the difference it makes. Users can hit Win + Alt + B at any time and instantly switch between HDR and standard display, something that I know sounds like it should have been in Windows for years, but has somehow only just made it in. The first one is a simple keyboard shortcut. Not anymore! While Windows 11's taskbar and folder changes have got all the headlines, it has also quietly introduced a few HDR settings that are of huge benefit to PC gamers with a compatible monitor. I know that sounds quick and simple reading it laid out like this, but any PC gamer experienced with the feature will know it was so easy to forget, and such a weird amount of clicks and menus to have to get to for such a simple option that it often ended up getting under-used, if not overlooked entirely. Previously, that involved a switch inside Windows 10's settings menu, where if you wanted to use HDR you needed to open that menu up, flip a toggle, play the game then, when you were done, go back and flip it back off again.
