Win11 / DCS - Auto-HDR also on exported displays (like USB LCD)


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

DCS looks awesome with Win11's capability to automatically apply HDR to any Dx11 game. But the thing is: can the monitor setup be changed, so that Windows only "sees" the main - HDR capable - screen?

So that HDR only gets applied to that and not to the SDR-USB-LCDs I have for radar/MPD/TV/... ?

I've already checked and Windows does recognize those displays as SDR only.

But because the game outputs the main display along side the exported ones, auto-hdr gets applied to the entire thing (main + MPDs), rather then only the main display.

Hope you'll get what I'm trying to say 😉

I've tried to make pictures with my phones camera; it's not quite what it looks like in reality (it's even more white, but the camera doesn't pick that up), but one can see the white crosshair in the SDR shot, but not in the Auto-HDR one:

PS: the problem lies in that the USB displays get a way too bright image and especially with Flir / TV images it's all pretty much white-on-white...
