Hello, I am inquiring about an issue I can't seem to solve (without turning HDR off all-together, which defeats the purpose of having it even be an option in Windows 11)
In recordings (primarily using OBS) and in screenshots (with snip and sketch) everything appears extremely over-exposed / bright with HDR enabled. This is a big problem for me as I actually, well, want to use the OS normally. I record lots of clips and take many screenshots and I've finally gotten fed up of it and am now looking for a solution. Any help appreciated, thanks
(snip and sketch has since stopped doing it, however it likes to do it randomly now. commonly happens in fullscreen programs and also my web browser for some reason)
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Just upgraded to an LG C2 as my main computer display and thought I was doing something wrong. Sometimes I'll get lucky and a screenshot will look normal, but that seems to be super rare. For screenshots within the browser, I've had luck with using a screenshot extension. Even then I have weird issues but that's the only way I've found to get around this. Hope it's fixed soon, but I'm not holding my breath.
+1 for the same frustrations
ridiculous that this has been going on for so long
happens using the print screen key, snipping tool, and screen capturing with teams/other applications.
the work around is for me to disable HDR every time I need to capture my screen in ANY way
Is there anyway to talk to a dev in charge about this? It's 2023, HDR is everywhere. We should even be able to have a HDR wallpaper by now.
Kind regards
The issue with discord is not windows specific. You can enable a discord “experiment” or whatever they call the experimental features to turn on tone map support.
Still an issue in Windows 10 22H2 19045 Feb 2023. Screenshots and Discord streaming still a flashbang for anyone looking. Only resolved by turning off HDR and making my own screen look dull, dark and lifeless.
