--- Comment #7 from NW <nw9165-jjnfov5...@yahoo.com> --- Hi, Thanks for clarifying the default behavior of KDE Plasma. Is it documented somewhere since when KDE Plasma defaults to this behavior and why this behavior was made the default? The bug report would still be valid, since it is reporting that there is no UI option for users to alter the default behavior. And with Wayland, users would also not be able to alter the behavior via the terminal (please feel free to correct if wrong). (In reply to Zamundaaa from comment #6) > Yes, apps can specify a content type for their window. For that reason I do > not think that a setting for this makes sense, as media players will change > the TV into the "video" mode as appropriate. That would be outside of KDE Plasma's control though? Because not all media player apps are part of KDE Plasma. And as such, KDE Plasma can not ensure that all media players will behave this way, right? Is there a known list of apps which change the content type on their own? Not every user might want the TV to automatically switch from one mode to another mode just because an app decides to do so. Whereas some users might be fine with that. As such, adding a drop-down, which allows users to set the content type, would be preferrable. That said: Perhaps KDE Plasma's current default behavior could be retained and could be named "Automatic" on the new "Content Type" drop-down in "System Settings -> Display and Monitor -> Display Configuration"? That way the "Content Type" drop-down would allow to choose from: * Automatic * None * Graphics * Photo * Cinema * Game Would that work? And would selecting a specific content type from that drop-down (other than Automatic) prevent apps from changing the content type? Or would apps still be able to change the content type on their own, even if the user has selected a specific content type from that drop-down?
