The AI feature Nvidia RTX Video HDR in the Geforce graphics driver not only converts videos from Standard Dynamic Range (“SDR”) to High Dynamic Range (“HDR”), but can also automatically make HDR usable in all games.
The AI feature Nvidia RTX Video HDR in the Geforce graphics driver, which requires a Geforce RTX 2000, Geforce RTX 3000 or Geforce RTX 4000 with Tensor cores, not only transforms videos from standard dynamic range (“SDR”) to high in real time Dynamic Range (“HDR”), but can HDR with extended dynamic range can also be automatically used in all games. This requires the mod “NvTrueHDR“, which supports games based on the DirectX 9, 10, 11 and 12 programming interfaces.
An improved Auto HDR for all games
Like first about the website Guru3D as well as the subreddit r/nvidia It was reported that the HDR modification should work similarly to the “Auto HDR” feature integrated in Windows 11, but deliver better results. Of course, this mod is not based on a native HDR implementation and there are certain hardware limitations, such as a Geforce RTX 2000 (“Turing”), Geforce RTX 3000 (“Ampere”) or Geforce RTX 4000 (“Ada Lovelace”) with corresponding tensor cores is mandatory.
Mod unlocks hidden driver features
The mod is intended to unlock a previously hidden driver feature that uses the AI-trained algorithm, which with Nvidia RTX Video HDR has so far only been used for video material, in all games with the graphics APIs DirectX 9, DirectX 10, DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 activated. OpenGL and Vulkan “should” probably work without any problems, according to the creator of the mod.
Mod receives a lot of praise on Reddit
The comments from players on Reddit who have already tested the mod report that it actually delivers better results than Windows Auto-HDR. The performance losses seem to vary depending on the title, but are limited. Some even say that the feature would offer a “near-native HDR experience.” But more feedback is needed under OpenGL and Vulkan. The implementation requires the following framework conditions:
- Windows 11 mit Windows Display Driver Model (“WDDM”) 3.1
- Nvidia Geforce Game Ready Driver 551.23 (or higher)
- Nvidia RTX Video HDR enabled in graphics driver
- Disable Auto HDR in Windows 11
If you would like to try out the hidden driver feature yourself with the help of the mod, you can follow the detailed instructions on the modding platform NexusMods Orientate yourself and test the automatic HDR.
