HDR10 + 120 Hz is technically possible on the RayNeo 4 Pro
I’ve been analyzing how the RayNeo 4 Pro handles video input, and noticed that it currently supports HDR10 only at 60 Hz, not at 120 Hz. Based on bandwidth calculations, though, HDR10 + 120 Hz should be technically possible if the device supports YCbCr 4:2:0 at high refresh rates. This format reduces color data but keeps full brightness detail, making it much lighter in bandwidth while still looking great in motion. I wanted to open a discussion about this and see if anyone can confirm whether the RayNeo 4 Pro uses 2‑lane or 4‑lane DisplayPort Alt Mode, since that could explain the current limitation.
I recently saw a comment here on Reddit claiming that the RayNeo 4 Pro might be using 2‑lane DP Alt Mode instead of the usual 4 lanes.
If that’s true, it would explain why the glasses currently support only:
- 1080p120 SDR
- 1080p60 HDR10
With only 2 lanes, the available bandwidth is lower — but 1080p120 HDR10 using YCbCr 4:2:0 actually fits perfectly within the limits of 2‑lane DP 1.4.
👉 1080p120 HDR10 using YCbCr 4:2:0 fits perfectly within the bandwidth of 2‑lane DP 1.4.
So from a technical standpoint, RayNeo could enable HDR10 at 120 Hz if the hardware and firmware support that color format.
Before assuming anything, I’d like to confirm whether the RayNeo 4 Pro really uses 2 lanes or 4 lanes.
To do that, we need someone who already owns the glasses to extract the EDID (the display’s capability report).
If you have the RayNeo 4 Pro, could you please share your EDID dump?
You can extract it using:
- CRU (Custom Resolution Utility)
- Monitor Asset Manager
- Any EDID reader tool
What we’re looking for:
- Whether the device reports 2‑lane or 4‑lane DP Alt Mode
- Whether it supports YCbCr 4:2:0 at high refresh rates
- Whether HDR metadata is only tied to 60 Hz modes
- Whether the EDID exposes HBR3 x2 or HBR3 x4 bandwidth modes
This information would help confirm whether HDR10 at 120 Hz is something RayNeo could enable with a firmware update.
If RayNeo engineers are reading this:
Please consider adding 1080p120 HDR10 (YCbCr 4:2:0) if the hardware allows it.
It would be a huge improvement for gaming and video, and the community would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
