HDR keeps turning off


Recommended Posts

I got few system in the house that have HDR capable monitor/card/drivers etc... running windows 11.

 

I can enable HDR, and everything is fine, but when I turn the monitor off and back on, HDR will be OFF.

 

Every single time, is there a way to fix that?

this issue is getting weirder... 

 

So i have few Windows 11 machines and few HDR displays.

 

Windows 11 + TCL HDR 4K TV --- HDR keeps turning off every time I turn off the TV

Windows 11 + Hisense HDR 4K TV --- HDR keeps turning off every time I turn off the TV

WIndows 11 + HP 1440P HDR Monitor --- HDR keeps turning off every time I turn off the monitor

 

Now last week I bought a new monitor 

 

Windows 11 + LG 1440P HDR Monitor - and HDR stays on, even after I turn off the monitor.

I have a LG 1440p (27GP83B) which had the exact same issue.  A firmware update corrected it and it works as expected now.

Not sure about the other stuff you listed (I only use HDR in games, like Doom Eternal nor do I have 11).

I mean, this isn't a solution to why it's turning off, but turning it on is just a matter of pressing Win+Alt+B. I remember mine did that sometimes, but I got used to turning it on when I wanted, because I didn't like HDR everytime, anyway.

I don't know about your but HDR does not work in Windows. Windows looks terrible, colors washed out. I was really looking for Auto HDR option to turn HDR ON when I game, and when I am in Windows automatically turns off. Microsoft completely missed a point here.

After some tweaking I got the HDR look to where I wanted...

 

But only one of four of my HDR capable displays will keep the HDR on after I power cycle the display...

 

I still can't figure out why the hell its doing that..
