As someone with the OG steam deck, and an HDR TV that my main PC and PS5 are hooked up to, I have issues all the time when streaming HDR content to the non HDR display on the steam deck. It tries to convert the image to standard dynamic range, but just blows out the whites and crushes the blacks. I always gotta remember to turn HDR off on my PC before streaming, but it would be really nice not to have to do that.

Try Sunshine + Moonlight and this script:

Already using Moonlight and sunshine so half the work is done for me. You just made my day, thank you!

Edit: Had to update my version of Sunshine, but once I did that, this did the trick. Thanks again!

No, a 3rd party app called Chiaki4Deck is adding a new renderer that will enable HDR support on the new Deck's OLED screen.

[–] Leorhall 10 points 11 months ago

No, the developers of chiaki are working to add HDR support.

Use Firefox and Ublock Origin, friend. There are specific "annoyances" filters in Ublock Origin that take care of most (but not all) cookie banners.

Edit: turns out you need to customize your filters to get this one to stop: https://lemmy.world/comment/5775350

Can confirm that it does not work and trying to click on the cookie settings freezes the thing halfway through. lol

[–] PeachMan 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You're right, but there's still hope! Use the element zapper to get rid of it: https://lemmy.world/comment/5775350

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Works. Not sure how it works over the element picker tool though, which completely failed to get rid of it.

[–] PeachMan 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Element picker is a little less user friendly, you pick elements and then you have to decide what to do with them. I think you have to click "create" for each element that you "pick". Element zapper is the simpler tool, you just click things and they go away.

Ah, you're right, when I reset my site cache for steamdeckhq.com it comes up with that cookie window again.

Luckily, Ublock Origin still has you covered! Click the UBO icon and click the little lightning bolt, starts "element zapper" mode. That allows you to create your own custom filters, just by clicking things on a page that you don't like.

I was able to remove this cookie window with the zapper. If you accidentally zap something you want to keep, you can go to UBO settings and look for it in the "My Filters" section. Each new filter is noted with a timestamp so you know which ones you created today.

I used Chiaki to play Yakuza 0 on my PS4 the first few months I had my Deck. Worked really well!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I had my first Chiaki4deck streaming session from my OLED and was blown away by how unnoticeable the latency and clear the image was. It literally felt like I was playing the game native to steam deck. Getting HDR support as well is going to be a real treat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@Fubarberry Can I also use my deck as a PS5 controller and, like, play with a friend?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Sorry, I have no idea.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Do you have to have a PS5 condole for this app to work?
