    As someone with the OG steam deck, and an HDR TV that my main PC and PS5 are hooked up to, I have issues all the time when streaming HDR content to the non HDR display on the steam deck. It tries to convert the image to standard dynamic range, but just blows out the whites and crushes the blacks. I always gotta remember to turn HDR off on my PC before streaming, but it would be really nice not to have to do that.

      No, a 3rd party app called Chiaki4Deck is adding a new renderer that will enable HDR support on the new Deck’s OLED screen.

      Use Firefox and Ublock Origin, friend. There are specific “annoyances” filters in Ublock Origin that take care of most (but not all) cookie banners.

      Edit: turns out you need to customize your filters to get this one to stop: https://lemmy.world/comment/5775350

        Can confirm that it does not work and trying to click on the cookie settings freezes the thing halfway through. lol

            Works. Not sure how it works over the element picker tool though, which completely failed to get rid of it.

              Element picker is a little less user friendly, you pick elements and then you have to decide what to do with them. I think you have to click “create” for each element that you “pick”. Element zapper is the simpler tool, you just click things and they go away.

          Ah, you’re right, when I reset my site cache for steamdeckhq.com it comes up with that cookie window again.

          Luckily, Ublock Origin still has you covered! Click the UBO icon and click the little lightning bolt, starts “element zapper” mode. That allows you to create your own custom filters, just by clicking things on a page that you don’t like.

          I was able to remove this cookie window with the zapper. If you accidentally zap something you want to keep, you can go to UBO settings and look for it in the “My Filters” section. Each new filter is noted with a timestamp so you know which ones you created today.

            I was able to remove this cookie window with the zapper.

            Tried that. Doesn’t work for me, either. At some point I just think “okay this creator does not respect their users enough for me to care about their site”.

            GamingOnLinux has an excellent site free of cookies, trackers and doesn’t even embed their own YouTube videos so I will continue getting my SD news there.

            Thank you

              Yeah fair enough, if a website is going to be this annoying then you could argue we just shouldn’t go there.

              But I still want to spread the gospel of Ublock Origin where I can. The zapper feature can be a little finicky, depending on how a site is structured. It helps to move the mouse around and try to find a spot that covers the entire area that you want to get rid of.

    I had my first Chiaki4deck streaming session from my OLED and was blown away by how unnoticeable the latency and clear the image was. It literally felt like I was playing the game native to steam deck. Getting HDR support as well is going to be a real treat.
