I hope AMD fixed this on their side, maybe by implementing it in hardware. Does anyone have a source? I’ve only seen reports of HDMI 2.1b support not specifying “Windows-only”. Fingers crossed.

    I mean, I agree. But I’ve waited long enough for a good OLED TV with DisplayPort. I don’t get why they don’t just add one.

      TV manufacturers are part of the cartel HDMI forum, which benefits from there being a big ecosystem of non-member devices that are forced to have HDMI ln them and pay licensing fees for it.

      Royalties. It’s been 10 years since DP became capable of carrying audio on the same cable, so that’s not an excuse anymore.

      There are larger format monitors that have both, but I don’t think they’re configured in a way that makes them very cost effective.
