    Good for Gnome `kscreen-doctor` has been pretty useful for Sunshine prep commands, this should be similar

            It does a lot more than being an xrandr replacement. It will also do a whole lot more once the HDR configuration functionality is merged

              If you cant wait for it to be merged, the merge request is kept in a useable state and most distros have a build of it available somewhere, so you are not prevented to use it while it is being polished.

              (and yes there are still bugs being uncovered and fixed.)

                It would be amazing for enabling HDR on the display dynamically when HDR content is gonna be shown (Like Steam for example, enabling HDR when a game that supports it is launched)

                  Only two unresolved threads now, it is still possible to just make it in for 48. Maybe.
