Add support for the "max bpc" connector property (!2412) · Merge requests · GNOME / mutter

Daniel van Vugt requested to merge vanvugt/mutter:max-bpc into main May 13, 2022

Add support for the max bpc connector property.

Useful for lowering bandwidth requirements on systems that can't maintain a stable signal. Or for increasing the displayed colour depth on kernel drivers that default to too low (allegedly amdgpu has done this in the past).

Hopefully fixes bugs like: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1929209

We might also want to do similar in plymouth (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/issues/102).
