Why can't I activate HDR for my external monitor in the settings on my laptop?
I have an HDR capable monitor
USB C to Displayport 1.2 is also available.
And I also asked about the graphics card and that's not the reason. Have an Intel UHD Graphics 620
Display Port 1.2 does not support HDR. HDR for Display Port was only added with version 1.4.
Okay, why does an Acer employee tell me that it works with Displayport 1.2?
Because such employees do not always have the best understanding of technology. That's okay too, because they do their job and they don't necessarily have to know anything specific that goes beyond that. You can't know everything.
Yes, but then that is missing, I don't know field. It's kind of a scam.
I checked again and saw that Displayport 1.2 works with Intel. https://www.golem.de/news/hdmi-2-0-und-displayport-hdr-bleibt-handarbeit-1802-132884-6.html
