Set the maximum bits per channel (BPC) for this output.
|
||||
You *do not* need to set this option unless you hit bandwidth issues (can't set a monitor configuration that works on other compositor) or lower-than-expected color depth.
|
||||
Particularly, 10-bit color output may work even if max-bpc is 8.
|
||||
|
||||
You *do not* need to set this option normally.
|
||||
It influences the encoding of the display signal on the wire and *is not* directly related to the color bitness or framebuffer format.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting `max-bpc` to a low value may help if you hit a bandwidth issue (can't set a monitor configuration that works on other compositor).
|
||||
Otherwise, you're advised to leave it unset (keeping a default, usually high value) and let the GPU driver figure things out automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid values are `6`, `8`, `10`, `12`, `14`, `16`.
