So I'm playing games in HDR and streaming in SDR. Then when I watch it back in HDR, everything looks way too dark.
For example, this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUIXoJsQINg
When I turn Windows HDR off, the video actually looks passable. But with Windows HDR on, the blacks are blown out and you are unable to see what's going on very well.
My OBS advanced settings are the following:
I've tried changing the Color Range to "Limited" but that did nothing. I tried adjusting the SDR white level, and that did nothing. I streamed with Windows HDR turned off, and it looked fine until I turned Windows HDR back on.
I can stream in HDR to YouTube just fine. Playback looks perfectly okay whether or not Windows HDR is turned on or off. The only thing is I can't stream to Twitch or use Restream.io while streaming in HDR...
It seems to be a problem with watching SDR content back in HDR. The strange thing about all this is that I didn't have this problem until somewhere near the end of January of this year (2024). My streams on Twitch from December look perfectly fine. I didn't change any settings before I started having this problem, as there was no need for me to. Things just worked. Now they don't.
How can I get back to the way it was?
