I’ve a brand new Mac Studio and am having troubles with it and my screens’ HDR. How do I drive it to acknowledge and correctly output an HDR sign?
Earlier than I acquired the Mac Studio I had each of those screens linked to a PC with an Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti which was utilizing them at their full decision, body fee, and HDR – in order that they undoubtedly do really help it. It linked to the left monitor by way of DisplayPort and the correct by way of HDMI.
My proper monitor is the ViewSonic VP2785 (4K60, HDR, AdobeRGB). It has DisplayPort and HDMI inputs.
Once I join it by way of HDMI, I don’t get an HDR possibility in Settings. I can set decision (which is “Extra House” i.e. native), shade profile (AdobeRGB), refresh fee (60 Hz), and rotation (normal).
Once I join it with a USB-C/DP to DisplayPort 1.4 cable, I get and use the identical choices. Nevertheless, when linked this fashion, it regularly would not get up when the system wakes up, so I want the HDMI possibility.
HDR by no means reveals up.

Once I join it with a USB-C/DP to DisplayPort 1.4 cable, I get and set all the identical choices as above, however I do get an HDR possibility. Nevertheless, once I flip it on, I get a really washed out show – not HDR. When taking part in HDR content material, I nonetheless get the same old soiled distinction areas the place the brightness saturates non-HDR colorspaces and will get clipped.
Once I join it with the native USB-C connector (with a thunderbolt-compatible cable) I get the identical as above, however as with the earlier one it typically fails to wake when the system wakes.
How do I get it to acknowledge and correctly output HDR? How do I work out why it isn’t working within the first place?
Another notes:
- This conduct was the identical on 15.0 and 15.0.1.
- When it “fails to wake”, OS X agrees and has moved all of my home windows/areas to the opposite monitor. Once I power-cycle the monitor OS X will then transfer all my home windows/areas again to the place they have been throughout the prolonged shows.
