Screenshot functionality seems to fail when one of two screens is in HDR mode

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro

Version 10.0.17134 Build 17134

Geforce 1050 Ti driver 418.91

I have one screen in 1920x1080@144Hz (ASUS VG248QE) and a second screen in 3840x2160@60Hz (BenQ PD2700U, 4K).

HDR is enabled on the 4K screen.

Problem statement:

When using the screenshot function that I've demonstrated with Snip, the image colours on the HDR screen are badly affected.

Evidence:

The demonstration image shows a reference PNG image (Kodak Image 08) on Internet Explorer being shown on both screens. The HDR screen holds the right side of the image.

The same result is shown with other screenshot applications (e.g. Greenshot).

The issue is not present when using just the HDR screen.

Question:

It appears that the screenshot functionality cannot handle the difference between HDR and non-HDR displays and treats the HDR pixels as non-HDR, losing colour information. I'd guess this is a bug and suggest that the screenshot methods should default to
the HDR image and translate non-HDR pixels to HDR versions.

Over-exposure in screenshots and recordings with HDR in Windows 11

Hi ZB06,



Welcome post in Microsoft Community.

I'm Mosken, I do apologize for the inconvenience that you're experiencing right now, let me help you sort things out.



According to your description, I knew that you use the HDR function in Windows 11, overexposure when taking screenshots and screen recordings. If my understanding is wrong, please correct me in the reply.

First of all, I checked the relevant information and found that the screen recording software you mentioned does not support HDR screen recording itself, but its deficiencies can be compensated by the settings in the software. Because this forum is aimed at individual users of Windows products, I cannot provide you with further support related to the software, but you can check the relevant information on the official forum of the software.



And about screenshots. Because the screenshot function that comes with the system is only a very basic screenshot and cannot use HDR, it is recommended that you use the screenshot function in the Xbox Gamebar (Open with Win + G).

The above steps are provided based on the information I have learned so far, I wish that will be helpful to you. If your problem still cannot be solved by these steps, please tell me more specific situation in the next reply. I will continue to assist you in solving the problem.
