The support matrix said the desktop clients' Full chroma switch "has no effect today" and that only the Apple client asks for 4:4:4. Both stopped being true in July: `clients/session/src/main.rs` advertises VIDEO_CAP_444 whenever the setting is on, deliberately with no client-side probe, because every desktop decode rung can display full chroma — the Vulkan presenter samples the 2-plane 4:4:4 pool formats and swscale converts for the software rung. So Linux, Windows and Apple all ask; Android is the one that genuinely doesn't implement it. The other half was HDR. `9f72a3b6` gave the Windows IDD-push capturer a packed 10-bit BT.2020 PQ RGB output, so NVENC encodes HEVC Main 4:4:4 10 and the two compose — the matrix still said "4:4:4 and HDR together is refused", and hdr.md still called PyroWave the only exception. Linux is the side that keeps the trade: handshake.rs resolves the depth back to 8 for a 4:4:4 session, so full chroma wins and the stream is SDR. Three cells move ❌ → ⚠️ rather than ✅ on purpose. The client half is unconditional, but the host half is not: HEVC 4:4:4 means an NVIDIA host, or PyroWave on any vendor. The notes say which, and point at the stats overlay's `4:4:4→4:2:0` tag — this negotiation is the one that fails loudly. Also: C ABI version 13 → 14; PyroWave's ≈8K 4:4:4 block-index ceiling now has a note; and the roadmap no longer calls Intel 4:4:4 a hardware limit, which the matrix and vaapi.rs both contradict — VCN can't, VAAPI hasn't. Spot-checked and left alone as still accurate: the Linux client clipboard stub, VAAPI declining 4:4:4, Android having no 4:4:4 at all, and the wire / driver / gamepad-channel versions.
