Post by mighty-thor »

good morning,

HDR is the problem. You might search for HDR in the search box.

Yes, it seems the minimum word length has been put BACK to 4 characters. It had been shortened to 3 so that people could search for the three-letter acronyms that keep floating around here, like "HDR".

The problem is the mapping of colors HDR to SDR. Searching for "handbrake hdr sdr" on a regular search engine comes up with lots of hits, and they're not encouraging (at least not those on the first page of results). A couple of them:
