160*output* <name> render_bit_depth 8|10
161 Controls the color channel bit depth at which frames are rendered; the
162 default is currently 8 bits per channel.
163
164 Setting higher values will not have an effect if hardware and software lack
165 support for such bit depths. Successfully increasing the render bit depth
166 will not necessarily increase the bit depth of the frames sent to a display.
167 An increased render bit depth may provide smoother rendering of gradients,
168 and screenshots which can more precisely store the colors of programs
169 which display high bit depth colors.

171 Warnings: this can break screenshot/screencast programs which have not been
172 updated to work with different bit depths. This command is experimental,
173 and may be removed or changed in the future.
