I have two 14" Macbook Pros; 1 - M1MAX and 1 - M1PRO.

I noticed two distinct differences and can't exactly pinpoint the issue?

The M1PRO is running Monterey 12.0 and has HDR options in Safari (Youtube) and I'm also able to "Set Playback Destination" in shortcuts

But the M1MAX that I just got is running 12.0.1 Monterey, and doesn't have the option to Set Playback Destination in shortcuts nor does it have an HDR option in Youtube in Safari?

Anyone else run into this issue? are theses settings I may have forgot to enable somewhere?
 
Found the reasoning for 1 of the 2 issues: HDR in Safari appears to be limited in the most recent iOS update


Need to update User Agent in Devlop to Google Chrome - Windows to see HDR in youtube

Anyone have any ideas for the shortcut issue?
No weird reasoning for the HDR option missing. It was there before it got disabled by YouTube. It's prob because of the new MBPs have the kernel panic bug sometimes when watching YouTube HDR content. That's why they prob disabled it for now for Macs .

Good news is Apple has confirmed that it's fixed on the RC so all we need to do is wait for 12.1 stable. And then wait for YouTube to enable it back. And voila we're back in business
