When testing for HDR detection in your Microsoft Windows* 10 DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 application, make sure that HDR and WCG display settings are turned on (see below). Intel® Graphics and Windows® 10 DCH Drivers The display-controller protocol output in Intel’s GEN11 GPU architecture supports HDR10 and Intel® has shipped with HDR product driver support since April 2018 with Windows* Redstone 4 (RS4). Thus, using HDR10 metadata will help ensure your game’s compatability with the current and next generation of displays. HDR10 is the standard protocol for all current industry-spec HDR displays, both those with the Ultra HD Premium* and VESA DisplayHDR* certifications. DXGI 1.6 includes improvements for methods to detect the adaptor capability and provide the connected monitor’s specific capability. To enable HDR with DirectX 12, the DXGI 1.5 API is the minimum version required. HDR and Wide Color Gamut and DXGI Implementation.


Here are a few relevant readings and samples from Microsoft: Using Microsoft DirectX API allows your title to be GPU independent and adds future-proofing to your game so that your fans can enjoy playing the game for years to come. To get your game HDR ready, Intel recommends a GPU vendor-agnostic API for detecting and handling HDR for your DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 title. Getting HDR into your game has also never been easier with 11th generation Intel® Processor Graphics ( HDR on Intel® Graphics) and Microsoft* DirectX* 11 and DirectX* 12. High Dynamic Range (HDR) rendering is here and the future of gaming is brighter, with higher contrast and more colorful imagery than ever before.
