Yes, there are firmware updates planned to address the Dolby Vision issues on the Dell Alienware AW3225QF. A Dell community manager has confirmed that a firmware update allowing users to toggle Dolby Vision on and off is expected to be released in March 2024[1][4].
This update aims to improve the functionality of Dolby Vision on the monitor, which has been experiencing issues such as being "stuck on" or incorrectly activating with HDR10 content. The toggle feature will help users manage these settings more effectively, especially given the challenges with how Windows handles HDR signals when a Dolby Vision display is connected[2][4].
Overall, this planned update reflects Dell's commitment to enhancing the user experience for AW3225QF owners, particularly regarding the monitor's HDR capabilities.
