instead it simply starts a stream.
- For the Linux flatpak you must prepend commands with ``flatpak-spawn --host``.
HDR Support
-----------
Streaming HDR content is supported for Windows hosts with NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel GPUs that support encoding HEVC Main 10.
You must have an HDR-capable display or EDID emulator dongle connected to your host PC to activate HDR in Windows.
- Ensure you enable the HDR option in your Moonlight client settings, otherwise the stream will be SDR.
- A good HDR experience relies on proper HDR display calibration both in Windows and in game. HDR calibration can differ significantly between client and host displays.
- We recommend calibrating the display by streaming the Windows HDR Calibration app to your client device and saving an HDR calibration profile to use while streaming.
- You may also need to tune the brightness slider or HDR calibration options in game to the different HDR brightness capabilities of your client's display.
- Older games that use NVIDIA-specific NVAPI HDR rather than native Windows 10 OS HDR support may not display in HDR.
- Some GPUs can produce lower image quality or encoding performance when streaming in HDR compared to SDR.
