i have strong pore english abilities, so i’m ready to focus on the topic. the video from rx 560 (latest) in 4k at 60 fps, 10 bit, 4.2.2 with hdr works perfectly. when i switch to the 10 bit pixel format on hisense, it supports all formats from hlg to dolby vision. however, in graphics hdr mode it no longer works. my older tv only supports hdr 10, but with the 10 bit pixel format it can still enable hdr up to 4k at 4.2.2 @60. why not? feel free to ask for any suggestions in advance.

Activating it within the display's built-in OSD simply indicates the option exists, without activating 10-bit. Setting graphics to 10-bit actually instructs the PC to produce that level of detail. The device probably lacks the necessary bandwidth (depending on the HDMI/DisplayPort standard it uses) to support both 10-bit and HDR simultaneously. That’s why the HDR feature disappears when you enable 10-bit.

Yes, that was my idea. Using the same HDMI cable, the system supports 10-bit and HDR at 60Hz. I own a budget 2.1 HDMI cable with 1.2m length, so the issue isn’t there. My TV is a Hisense model with HDMI 2.1, but the RX560 doesn’t work. I found on Google that AMD drivers for HDR can cause problems, but switching to an LG TV fixes it.
