HDR causes screenshots to be empty

[neonvoidx]

Tested with grim, but since 0.55 update screenshots are often if not always empty or near empty with artifacts when monitor is set to hdr or hdredid.

grim -g "$(slurp -d)" - | wl-copy

I tested with bitdepth 8 and 10, no difference

Example with hdr on (screenshotting this post itself, and it will look empty so its useless to really put here, but will anyways):

And here is setting srgb as monitor mode with supports_hdr off

I'm not sure what else to do to test this, grim seems to be the defacto screenshot util used for most screenshot utility apps anyways, if anyone has another one to test I will.

Here is one of my hdr monitor configs:

{
    output = "DP-2",
    position = "4880x1440",
    mode = "3440x1440@143.92",
    scale = 1.0,
    bitdepth = 10,
    cm = "hdredid",
    supports_hdr = 1,
    supports_wide_color = 1,
    sdrbrightness = 0.5,
    sdrsaturation = 1.0,
    sdr_max_luminance = 408,
    sdr_min_luminance = 0.2339,
    vrr = 1,
  }

Full config it's in nix with some nix fuckery

https://github.com/yayuuu/hyprland-fix-hdr-screenshare/tree/master This plugin fixes it, i guess we need plugins to get 0.55 to work like 0.54 did for HDR lol ;'(

[garciaErick]

Ping to get notified if this gets actually fixed lol

[tekstryder]

[gulafaran]

just curious, does this make it any better or worse or no difference? #14543 there were some manual if else cases spread here and there, missing a few drm formats. requires that hyprgraphics PR applied too tho.

[neonvoidx]

no change it seems

[neonvoidx]

Just an update it seems if i screenshot once its empty, and screenshot a second time its fine, this seems to consistently go back and forth. i.e
screenshot empty -> screenshot fine -> screenshot empty -> screenshot fine -> ....
as if theres some bad boolean toggle logic happening

[neonvoidx]

That is not the case for me. The screenshot remains stuck at some random past frame until toggling HDR on and off, or restarting hyprland. Same happen on OBS and hyprpicker, so basically everything that captures the screen.

Does it only happen after a dpms off event?

No, ive tried from fresh login, fresh boot, dpms off and on events etc, I can't pin down whats causing it, and its never consistent. A majority of time screenshots are empty, sometimes not. Also screensharing in general also seems busted with HDR, OBS, vesktop/discord, etc dont work very well anymore. Tried pipewire screen capture for instance if i select an entire display to capture it causes hyprland to kind of flash the screen while its being recorded, but if i set specific windows it's mostly fine. Some major regressions going on with color management moving from 0.54

[LionHeartP]

Do you have VRR enabled globally? Does it happen with it turned off, if so?

[neonvoidx]

VRR enabled globally , let me try with it off

[neonvoidx]

vrr off globally makes no difference :(

[neonvoidx]

call the cops, this is a screenshot of me screenshoting a game running, and for some reason its a distorted screenshot of firefox on twitch, which is on a completely different monitor and workspace

[neonvoidx]

[neonvoidx]

Update, using latest master

                  keep_unmodified_copy = 1,

seems to work now, however it completely borks rotated monitors like portrait mode. The portrait monitor will flicker or stay black for seconds at a time and its extremely annoying to choose between having a borked portrait monitor or having HDR screencopy/share working.

[neonvoidx]

#14845 (comment) this

[neonvoidx]

Did a git bisect, issues started here 5ba33f8

[neonvoidx]

For anyone that finds this, I THINK i figured it out, at least I haven't seen it come back. So my 2 main monitors are HDR, my portrait mode monitor is not. I previously had use_fp16=1 which enables always, swapping it to use_fp16=2 which sets it to enabled only in hdr mode, seems to fix it. So something with use_fp16 causes non HDR monitors (possibly only rotated monitors) to flicker or go black for 1 to n seconds.

Correction, it came back, rip

[chungyinleo]

I never had this option set, meaning it should be the default use_fp16=2. I also only have one monitor with HDR. Screenshot still get stuck in past frame seldomly. Not as frequent as in 0.55.3 after updating to 0.55.4. keep_unmodified_copy = 1 also did not fix it, at least in 0.55.3. Can test different options again later.

[neonvoidx]

Ya, also this issue came back, so idk, i guess it didnt fix anything

[parfaitcake]

This has been happening for a long while for me too, tried your suggestions, no dice, it works for the first few minutes after starting hyprland until the first flicker happens, then screenshots get stuck on whichever part of a window flickered and everything else is transparent.

The only real solution I've come up with is to pin hyprland to 0.54 for now (which comes with its own issue, the portal no longer works lol)

hyprland.url = "github:hyprwm/Hyprland/420ee44eedbe153c720ab14d566c417484e3049";

[neonvoidx]

ya its pretty sad, it's a major regression bug that seems to be ignored unfortunately, I've tried talking in discord, posting here, posting on hypr forums. no dice

unfortunately a lot of people (vaxry) don't use HDR so it doesn't bother them I guess.

I think it was a mistake to have lua rewrite and render rewrites around the same time

even did git bisecting and rebuilt hyprland 20 times to find it, which seems to be to the commit that introduced lua which doesn't really make sense

most of the response in discord from maintainers is usually something along the lines of "find the bug yourself" when the bug started with a release version 0.55

my regression bug forum post

[njdom24]

I see this behavior occur the moment I first enter direct scanout during my session, and it never recovers until I relaunch. Disabling direct scanout avoids the problem for now.

[neonvoidx]

Ya going to do a full day of testing today, but I removed all settings that were set in render block of settings, i.e direct_scanout, cm_enabled, cm_auto_hdr, keep_unmodified_copy so they just use their defaults. For now for some reason I don't see the issue anymore and screenshots are randomly working again.

[Trimutex]

Hey I was having issues with screenshots and HDR as well. I think mine tracked down to 10 bit breaking it, but didn't like that option.

Messing with config though I found use_fp16 = 0 and direct_scanout = 1 to work with 10 bit. Its not consistent though. In fullscreen games I tested like ~50% of the time image turns out messy.

Figured I'd share my full config as well to try to track this down: https://lab.trianta.dev/trianta/dotfiles/src/branch/00/hypr/hyprland.conf
