HDR videos unavailable on computers supporting HDR video streaming
On my son's brand new HP Spectre X360 13 inch with 4k OLED display, it support ALL HD Color settings including Stream HDR video, Play HDR games and apps, and use WCG apps.
On Edge Classic, youtube 4k HDR 60fps video can be play properly.
On Edge Chromium and Chrome, even though there is option to play same 4K HDR 60fps video, it can't play smoothly and the Intel 10 Gen i7-1065G7 max out 100%. Again, the Edge Classic works properly.
betaelmer I'm on a i5 6600k @4.6ghz and i have the same issue as you do. As soon as i start to play videos a 4k60 HDR the cpu max out and the gpu ( RX580) estays at 30%. The video drops a lot of frames. I've read that only 7th gen and above suport HDR so i thought that was the reason for my computer to no be able to play it. But you are telling me that your 10th gen intel is doing the same. That makes me wonder if the problem has to do with the browser. I can play videos at 2k but not above that. Let me know if you find something. Thank you.
