@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJS * +10% bandwidth lifehack [citation needed] 23:09:15
@k900:0upti.meK900And now I wonder how many DP implementations in the wild would actually explode if you tried to interleave audio and video packets at less than one frame per packet23:09:59
@k900:0upti.meK900I'm going to guess a lot23:10:07
@k900:0upti.meK900Also, yeah, the HDMI Forum has some very funny rules when it comes to IP protection 23:11:19
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJSright, that reminds me, how far can i cut down the blanking periods on this laptop?23:11:31
@k900:0upti.meK900 Which is why we still don't have full speed HDMI 2.1 on AMD on Linux 23:11:36
@k900:0upti.meK900Because they can't put it in the driver23:11:46
@k900:0upti.meK900Can you find it in 10 seconds on 4pda? Yes 23:11:56
@k900:0upti.meK900 Is it literally just the timings from 2.0, which are known publicly, but sped up by like 50%? Also yes 23:12:26
@k900:0upti.meK900Did the HDMI Forum decide it's critical IP that needs protection? You bet23:12:44
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJSmaybe try suggesting to add an overclocking option that just so happens to max out at 2.1 spec23:13:13
@k900:0upti.meK900Nvidia runs it in firmware23:13:22
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJS technically not 2.1 but might as well be 23:13:29
@k900:0upti.meK900Intel has a separate Realtek DP to HDMI converter chip on the board 23:14:48
@k900:0upti.meK900Yes they actually did that 23:15:00
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJSif even intel at their peak couldn't be arsed to untangle what the fuck is going on at the HDMI Forum you know you went too far23:16:52
@k900:0upti.meK900 I mean I wouldn't call Intel's GPU division "peak" - not yet anyway 23:17:28
@k900:0upti.meK900But this was definitely a "we're so fucking done here" engineering decision 23:17:51
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJSwere you talking about the (electric) arc gpus or integrated craphics?23:18:35
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJSif it's the latter i'll count it as "intel at their peak" as that would have meant one less chip on the board23:19:18
@favoritohjs:matrix.orgFavoritoHJS * if it's the latter i'll count it as "intel at their peak" as that would have meant one less chip on the motherboard23:19:23
@k900:0upti.meK900I'm talking about the dedicated GPUs23:21:02
@k900:0upti.meK900Their integrated ones still don't do HDMI 2.123:21:42
@k900:0upti.meK900Like, at all 23:21:45

To even make a device, you have to be a member of the Forum, so you can see the specs
Not even open? Bruh.

ARE YOU HAVING FUN YET
I want to cry.
23:36:11
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org It's just pure misery at this point.  23:39:11
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org I assume (or at least hope) DP is not a mob like the HDMI forum, right?  23:39:45

@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️This was fascinating to read through01:05:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusnow the same with UEFI and "Certified for Windows" ig01:12:44
