Re: HDR issue on PC

Thanks for the Info!

as an update of playing around... I have a total 4 displays and used OBS to share the image to see whats going on when the OLED blacks out..

i have managed to get Dolby Vision to work in 1024x768...and it breaks beyond that..

and let me tell you i thought the game looked good in 4K ultra SDR..but damn in DV the colors pop..

    Dont listen to them, EA, dont disable Dolby Vision like you did in Anthem! Its the best HDR mode and you should be working on its imporvement in every next game. Many of us moved to high planes of gaming and are playing on Oleds on their PCs dont strip us from that neat tv feature.

    BLACK SCREEN FIX: for you guys. Its simple. Just DDU your driver and do a fresh install of nvidia drivers. Either set color output to auto or RGB Limited. Everytime you get black screen issue just repeat the process. Last time I played and it worked on Andromeda and BF1 was 436 driver last one where my blacks werent grayed out like on the newest one. Its nvidias fault but they are aware of it.

  • I have 4 OLED display, OLED77G6 / OLED55C7 / OLED55C8 / OLED55C9. (tested with and without a DENON AVC X8500H and AVR-X3400H)

    There's no way to recover from black screen after leaving the game, only restart computer is working.

    @KrystaGG Have you actually tested NFS HEAT with Dolby Vision on a LG OLED ? ...

    DDU change nothing, i tested also on a clean install of W10 1903 and latest driver 441.12.

    Tested on 3 setup with 3770K + 980 Ti // 4770K + 1080 Ti // 3900X + 2080 Ti.

    By default, Nvidia is using RGB full. => DV is forced, black screen when alt tab or leaving the game.

    Tried RGB Limited => DV is forced, black screen when alt tab or leaving the game.

    So, don't write that you fixed it when it's not true.

    And your screenshot don't come from NFS HEAT ...

    @GoforceReloaded after leaving the game sure. Its a bug allright. Present in almost every game except bf1 if I recall. But werent we talking about launching the game and having the black bug like most of these guys mentioned?🙂. DV works and game works in DV, once you finish you might just hit restart button allright. Try older drivers newest 441 arent really good for us oled user since its blacks are messed up in hdr as you noticed. Try last one working like 436 or earlier. You will lose gsync support on c9 but dv will work in game
  • @KrystaGG Sure, DV is working (at least on all LG OLED series 6-9) and we need to enable RGB, will not work in YCbCr 4:2:2 or 4:2:0.

    I would prefer that they FIX black screen bug instead of turn OFF Dolby Vision but this bug is very annoying...

    I can't test older driver since they are all bugged with Forza games, only 440+ working without any bugs on FH4/Fm7 : (

    I have LG B8 oled and I have to change to 1080P 120Hz 4:2:2 in nvidia settings to disable dolby vision forced by NFS heat! Cannot play this game in HDR whatsoever! Im very disappointed with EA!

    Yup, this fixed Dolby Vision black screen for me. Thanks! Should be pinned as answer.

    Just do what KrystaGG said. I installed 436.48 Nvidia driver, and can play with DV enabled, (ALT-TAB) still gives black screen but game is working with DV.

    Nah, this was a giant waste of time. I could start the game and even engage HDR auto(Dolby Vision) inside the menu but once I try to leave that screen I'm right back into a black abyss. Busted game needs a fix, I'm going back to the newest driver.
