I need Hdr and vrr to work and a replacement for madvr that can make movies look as good as it can.

That’s what’s holding me, and multiple people I know, from moving to Linux.

The hdr and vrr seems to be about there but as far as I understand there’s still not an equivalent to madvr.

Why is that an easy block? The user you responded to was cordial, laid out his reasons and even provided some sources to corroborate. What exactly did he do wrong in your mind?

That depends who you ask.

When you say it seems to have better HDR, is that deduced from watching the video or looking at these screen shots? Because if we’re talking about the screen shots I’d have to disagree.
