Thanks j82k for doing the measurements. Feel much happier and more confident that I downgraded.
I used to be a pure dedicated media guy since 2008/09. Prior to the Popcorn Hour I was so frustrated in using a HTPC for media playback. But MadVR's tempted me back into the HTPC game again. And this reminds me why I went to a dedicated player - it's a minefield of compatibility issues. I downgraded to the correct drivers for HDR passthrough but that broke CUDA playback as I was getting macro blocking. Eventually figured out I had to switch to DXVA Copy back but in the middle of a movie which I was looking forward to and never ended up finishing. Instead I shouted at the computer haha. On the positives I fixed the HDR tone mapping on the OLED, got Rec2020 output in SDR for my RS49 though.
I'm planning on creating a "production/live" system which I will use as a dedicated HTPC. I won't apply any software/driver updates to avoid this situation happening again. But I'm sure Win 10 will get very upset and try and install updates behind my back.
