Committed on 19/11/2024 at 13:35. Pushed by zamundaaa into branch 'master'. plugins/screencast, screenshot: switch color transforms to relative colorimetric This is to disable tone mapping, which makes screenshots of SDR things while HDR is enabled on a display look a lot worse. As the tradeoff, this will make HDR content look worse, but that can be fixed later by taking the actual HDR metadata into account.

Created attachment 175768 [details] Screenshot is dim SUMMARY When using HDR, screenshots/recordings made with Pipewire (Spectacle, gpu-screen-recorder, OBS) are much dimmer than what is actually on the screen. It's clearly visible on video I've attached and the said video is also dimmer. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Enable HDR 2. Open Spectacle 3. Make a screenshot OBSERVED RESULT Screenshots are much dimmer than the source content. EXPECTED RESULT Screenshots should have the same brightness with the screen content.
