With 151 YouTube HDR stopped working

YouTube HDR isn't working on Windows 11 since it updated - no HDR option is being shown on YouTube any more.

I thought this version was where the fix for HLG content was coming - have Mozilla just disabled HDR on YouTube or is this something just affecting me?

I created a new blank profile just to test, but it made no difference.

Have they quietly disabled it?

EDIT:

I went to about:config and looked for gfx.color_management

I had to set gfx.color_management.hdr and gfx.color_management.hdr.force_enabled to true and now YouTube offers HDR again AND HLG content seems to be working correctly (90% of videos shown in results when searching for HDR seem to be PQ, so needs further testing).

Maybe it's been disabled by default? But if so, they didn't mention it.
