           Summary: When using HDR with a refresh rate => 144 Hz the top
                    side of my screen starts flickering
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: KScreen
           Version: 6.1.3
          Platform: NixOS
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: common
          Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When using HDR with a refresh rate => 144 Hz the top side of my screen starts
flickering, note that this doesn't happen at 180Hz with HDR Off nor 120Hz with
HDR On. This happened after updating to KDE Plasma 6.1.3 from 6.1.2 and I use
Wayland. Not sure if this is a bug from KScreen, KWin or other component.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set refresh rate to 180Hz.
2. Enable HDR.

OBSERVED RESULT
Top side of the screen flickers when movement occurs.

EXPECTED RESULT
There shouldn't be any flicker.

You can get my NixOS configuration at https://github.com/NolanPG/NixOS-General
if you need it for testing, the host used is "desktop" and you'll have to
change the hardware_configuration.nix before testing.

If you need any more info from my system like specifications or logs I'll
provide them gladly.


You can see a video of the bug here:

Sorry for the recording quality, OBS using Pipewire doesn't capture the bug but
this isn't a hardware problem because this configuration (HDR at 180Hz) works
in KDE Plasma 6.1.2 tested using a previous NixOS generation.
