Idea: create a small web browser or movie player app which plays a 1x1 nearly invisible HDR video in some corner and get the nits limit higher.

I had sometimes problems with color management on mac on fullscreen videos and to prevent that I put a small window from Helium or Pennywise (always on top browsers) into some corner to fix it.



Unfortunately that doesn’t work. The pixels of the SDR content will still be capped at 500 nits as you can see in the article: https://alinpanaitiu.com/blog/over-500nits-failed/#sdr-cap-i...
