"content": "Quick reminder on the likely reason why Valve's New Steam Machine only supports #HDMI 2.0:\n\n\"\"At this time an open source HDMI 2.1 implementation is not possible without running afoul of the HDMI Forum requirements.\"\"\n\nThis is what Alex Deucher, the maintainer of the amdgpu #kernel driver, said one and a half years ago here:\n\nhttps://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1417#note_2303163\n\nAnd from the ticket it looks like the problem remains.\n\nSee also Alex's earlier comment from early 2021 in the ticket:\n\nhttps://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1417#note_830547\n\n\"\"HDMI 2.1 is not available on #Linux due to the HDMI Forum.\"\"\n\n#LinuxKernel #Valve #SteamMachine\n\nhttps://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/115/540/981/772/463/684/original/1b98745beb5d061b.png",
