So, when you mention that Linux maps SDR to HDR with a gamma 2.2 curve, does that mean it replicates the AutoHDR feature like found in Windows games?

Wait a minute, is that how inverse tone mapping works? Just curious if there’s more detail on that process!

There’s actually no need for AutoHDR in Linux! The platform already does a great job mapping SDR content to HDR using a gamma 2.2 curve, which some users even find better than Windows’ approach. If you’re looking to upgrade your games to HDR, you might want to check out a RenoDX mod that enhances or adds proper HDR support.
