UPDATE: Even more exciting… Per this comment from a prominent AMD Linux developer, it looks like a full HDMI 2.1 implementation for AMDGPU could be coming!
Valve is probably adding that to the Steam Machine as we speak.
Also, fuck the HDMI Forum!
That’s why you don’t challenge a open source developers. They will code you out of relevance.
We have DisplayPort for a reason.
Somebody tell that to TV manufacturers ;(
Given the issues we have with dport right now, I have to say that reason is masochism and a hatred of features.
Care to elaborate?
I use Display Port on my main PC monitor. Recently I added a secondary screen, a bigger TV screen, just to watch films on it. Neither I have a second Display Port on my GPU, nor have the TV any. So we are stuck with HDMI to a degree.
correct. in terms of supporting more hardware that is out there, this is very welcomed
