Zhro Asks: How to reliably observe 8-bit dithering?
My display is currently outputting 8-bit color without dithering. This is the default behavior of an Nvidia GPU on Windows. This can also be seen in some games and images. My monitor is also limited to 8-bit but does support both limited and full dynamic range.
There are some guides online which show how to enable dithering on the output but I'm not certain that I will be able to observe these changes if the source image or game I'm using is itself an undithered, banded output.
What is a reliable source that I can observe to confirm that the output I'm viewing is dithered?
Nvidia control panel:
