In a typical use case the data is just passed through unless the user asks otherwise, so it doesn't matter much what gamma was used. Though most displays probably expect something resembling sRGB gamma by default, so that's presumably what most things generate, and images/videos/etc. pretty much always have gamma already applied when they are produced. > > Any pointers are greatly appreciated. > > [1] www.frescologic.com/product/single/fl2000 > [2] https://github.com/klogg/fl2000_drm > > Best regards, > -- Artem > _______________________________________________ > dri-devel mailing list > dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel -- Ville Syrjälä Intel _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
