AMD is preparing to enable HDMI 2.1 FRL support by default in its AMDGPU Linux driver, after years of being blocked by the HDMI Forum.
For Linux users with AMD GPUs, this means HDMI 2.1 FRL support could be enabled out of the box, which was previously blocked by the HDMI Forum. This is a notable step for open-source driver parity with proprietary features.
