Simulated look at NES palette $22, which is used as the sky in Super Mario Bros. This compares a version clipped within SDR range to a version that is allowed to extend out into HDR range. Due to this being full-field, you may notice ABL (Automatic Brightness Limiting) affecting the jump from all-SDR to mixed SDR/HDR depending on your display.D93 colour - Legend of Zelda, SNES, side-by-sideStickFreaks2024-04-30 | D93 colour - Legend of Zelda, SNES Side by side comparison.

The RPi lets us customise the output resolution to anything we like, including modes compatible with our standard definition PVMs, broadcast monitors, domestic televisions, arcade machines and many other sorts of CRTs.
