If HDR is not enabled full screen shows the colors perfectly normally. If HDR is enabled in windows and I go to a full screen video on the non-HDR monitor after a few seconds it will flicker blue then become severely I have an Aorus AD27QD (HDR) monitor as my primary display and an ultrawide 34UM88-P (Non-HDR) as my secondary. HDR on HDR monitor causes issue on secondary, non-HDR monitor On tonemapping: First off most TVs don't do tonemapping, and while many monitors will tonemap SDR content in HDR mode, to a layman there's no real way of identifying whether or not its done correctly, results may vary from model to model, so its usually best to just deactivate HDR if you want to watch SDR content the way the creators had in mind. Done, MPC-HC will now play HDR content.Īdditionally to check if the video file you're playing is HDR, press CTRL + J in MPC-HC and look for BT.2020, if its not HDR it will usually say BT.709.Īlternatively you can play with the slider in "Windows HD Color settings" while the video is playing, if its changing brightness its not HDR content, HDR content will always look the same no matter what the slider is set to.ĭeactivate "Play HDR games and apps" again if you want to watch SDR content/play games without HDR support, you can leave the slider in "Windows HD Color settings" all the way to the right as it has no effect when HDR is deactivated in Windows. Opening any video file in MPC-HC will now open the MadVR tray icon, right click the icon and select "Edit MadVR Settings", now go to Devices -> "your monitors name" -> HDR and select "passthrough HDR to Display" and check the "send HDR metadata to the display" checkbox.Īlternatively, go to C:\Program Files (x86)\K-Lite Codec Pack\Filters\madVR (or wherever you installed MadVR) and open madHcCtrl.exe to open the MadVR tray icon manually. Now close MPC-HC for the change to take effect. In MPC-HC go to View -> Options -> Playback -> Output -> and under "DirectShow Video" select "MadVR".

Or alternatively install MPC-HC, LAV Filters, and MadVR in that order.
Install the K-Lite codec pack and only select MPC-HC 圆4 as your preferred player when asked, you can leave the rest of the settings as is. To get a brighter desktop you can select "Windows HD Color settings" and turn the slider above the two pictures at the bottom all the way to the right, however this step is completely optional and will have no effect on HDR content. To activate HDR in Windows right click on the Desktop and select "Display Settings", now activate "Play HDR games and apps". Enable HDR on your TV / Monitor, on my Samsung Q80R this is called "Input Signal Plus". There's many confusing guides out there with conflicting information, so i'm trying to make a guide that wont leave you confused as to whether it even worked here:

So i've gotten a HDR TV recently and spend hours trying to figure out how to get it to play HDR movies from my PC.
