The HDMI Forum has rejected our proposal unfortunately. At this time an open source HDMI 2.1 implementation is not possible without running afoul of the HDMI Forum requirements.

    If I was AMD I’d tell them to suck my ass and reverse engineer that shit anyway. Unfortunately I’m not AMD, lol.

      They don’t need to RE it; they have access to the full spec and everything for their Windows drivers anyways. They’d open themselves up for litigation if they implemented this behind the forum’s back though and that’s something AMD (understandably) simply won’t do.

        They could hire dedicated teams that has no access to the full spec to RE it and it should be above board, as long as it’s done right ofc.
