This better reflects how HDR content is actually used, e.g. most content is in the SDR range, with specular highlights and bright details beyond the SDR range, in the HDR headroom. This more closely matches how HDR is handled on Apple platforms, as EDR. This also greatly simplifies application code which no longer has to think about color scaling. SDR content is rendered at the appropriate brightness automatically, and HDR content is scaled to the correct range for the display HDR headroom.
Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) Version 3.0
Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform development library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware via OpenGL and Direct3D. It is used by video playback software, emulators, and popular games including Valve's award winning catalog and many Humble Bundle games.
More extensive documentation is available in the docs directory, starting with README.md. If you are migrating to SDL 3.0 from SDL 2.0, the changes are extensively documented in README-migration.md.
Enjoy!
