Sweet. Soon I won't be chained to shitty android boxes for 4k streaming needs.
Why? HDMI 2.0 works fine.
Try Linux on a 4k HDR 120hz TV and see what happens.
This is only being fixed because Valve is releasing an HDMI console and pressuring both AMD and the HDMI forum to get their shit together. Although AMD has attempted to get it done in the past, it is only being addressed now.
I've been using linux with 4k120 tv with amd gpu for about half a year. dp to hdmi 2.1 cable works without issues.
Add HDR and VRR and come back.
hdr works i believe (i don't use it, like it, so not sure) and if i understood correctly, vrr won't work in kernel 7.2 either
