It seems everyone is using ditherig.

Please post which version you are using with success, or which version without success. And any relevant hardware/software/drivers.

I'm now running 1.12 and 1.13. It doesn't seem as effective as 1.11 which for some reason in the past week will not run. I didn't do a Windows Update or Driver update on Intel Graphics. Odd!

Are you using a laptop or desktop?

Out of curiousity, is there any chance of Ditherig ever being ported to Mac? I’m assuming that if it was possible/easy, it would have been done already, so I’m guessing there are technical reasons for it not working?

Using a Windows 10 Laptop with Intel Graphics & Individual GFX

It never worked on any newer laptop I have. It gives a dll error after launching.

So strange. it was working great a few weeks ago. Now I get the error.

1.12 and 1.13 work but they don't have the same healing effect?

    Quad43 You've changed something somewhere. I have 20H2 installed and 1.11 works. Probably a file accidentally got deleted or something.. you should unzip the archive again into a different folder and try there. That said, I don't really need it. For one thing, on 10, YCbCr mode doesn't use dithering. This is testable, simply because it will show banding on a gradient in that mode, and selecting spatial dithering will make it smooth.

      Sunspark Could you please link the download again? I cant find it and wanna try it on bootcamp.

        Sunspark Tried unzipping again and a different folder. "Failured to configure the registers". Not sure what I've changed here. I can't see anything. I do have the latest version of Windows updates so maybe that broke it? My Intel Drivers are using old ones so that shouldn't have impacted anything.
        Anyone have any ideas how to solve?

          Sofista90 If you're using a HDMI connection (this does not appear for VGA or DVI) you have the option of selecting YCbCr color mode, which can actually be set to 4:4:4 chroma not just 4:2:0. To try this out, HDMI connection to the monitor, Intel HD Graphics Control Panel>Display>Color Settings|Advanced, select Enable for YCbCr. Also set Display>General Settings|Advanced, select Full Range for Quantization since you're using a monitor not a tv and I also recommend Disable for IT Content (this is a hdmi specification that says to do display device processing based on what is being sent).

          martin Interesting experiment to try it on bootcamp. https://kawamoto.no-ip.org/henteko/myapp_en.html scroll down to "Dithering Settings for Intel Graphics"

          Quad43 You may have installed a new BIOS that changed things? One thing you could test, put in a different drive, re-install w10 to it and your display driver then try it. If still the same error, then it's not the software since it's a clean install and thus definitely something to do with the BIOS.

            and this procedure disables dithering and makes windows 10 versions later than 1511 usable? can it also be done with ati and nvidia video cards? thanks.

              Sofista90 "Usable" depends on the viewer and their hardware. The procedure I described specifically applies to the Intel HD Graphics that I have. For ATI and Nvidia you need to follow a different set of steps and determine how their implementation is operating.

                Anyone know if ditherig will work on surface BOOK 3? It has an intel iris plus integrated graphics and a core i5 1035G7

                is there a way to disable dithering in AMD Ryzen with Vega graphics in laptops?

                Can I find a piece of information about Ati and Nvidia somewhere?? Thank you a lot

                Is anyone currently using this with success on Windows 11? I am considering buying a laptop with an integrated GPU to give it a try, but given the nature of the software and that Ditherig 2.0 hasn't been updated for over a year, I am wondering if it runs as intended on Windows 11?

                I think I did test it and I think it works. I deleted Win 11 though because the interface wasn't to my taste. 10 and 11 keys are interchangeable.

                In anycase, the way the program works is by calling a register on the gpu. It would work on any Windows OS.
