    HDR not working in some games, working in others


    I've been having issues with HDR on my main gaming rig for a while, and I figured I might as well actually post on the internet and ask about it now rather than just sitting on the problem and trying to fix it myself.For the most part, Windows recognizes that I have two HDR-capable displays, and I am able to activate HDR through Windows Settings on both displays. I can watch HDR content just fine, and I seem to have no issues with viewing HDR images, either.I also have the most up-to-date graphics drivers from AMD as shown in the screenshot below, where my processor and graphics card specs are

    :)

  3. Windows 10 HDR problems in full screen.

    Hello moderator

    1. Its all the games I own that don't support HDR10. Basically when I full screen on a non-HDR game, the screen goes black for a few seconds and HDR gets disabled and all the colors looked washed out (Like its in SDR)

    I took 2 screenshots, One is in window mode, the other is in full screen

    Windowed mode (HDR on) : imgur.com

    Full screen mode (HDR off) : imgur.com

    2. Yes SDR looks washed out. I want to play my games in full screen and in HDR. Playing in windowed mode is a nightmare

    3. I know because the monitor goes black for a few seconds and all the colors look washed out (As shown in the screenshots)

    Sadly the fixes did not work HDR not working in some games, working in others :(

    I updated the GPU drivers via GeForce Experience app.

    My Monitor does support 4k HDR10

    I tried lower the resolution and the refresh rate but that did not work.

    Here is a video of my problem

    YouTube Link :

    Time Stamps :

    0:00 HDR mode is on everything looks fine (In the video, when it looks high contrast, that means HDR is on)

    0:35 I full screen the game. If you notice the high contrast is no longer there, the colors are washed out

    0:46 I disable full screen and HDR mode is back on

    *HDR looks high contrast, Ignore that, that's just the video itself.

    Im also using windows 10 64bit 1809

    HDR Windows 10 and gaming (bf1)

    Your link is broken.

    Because this setting is in game, and has been buggy, you would probably do better to post on the EA/Origin forums, but

    I have read that if your HDR monitor or TV does not have a wide enough color gambit HDR does not work as well as it could.
