RedControl talks directly to the AMD display engine (DCN) through UMR — the User Mode Register debugger — to control things no desktop settings panel exposes: per-pipe spatial/temporal dithering, color truncation, and as of v2.1 the DisplayPort stream encoder itself. Built for flicker-sensitive users, display tinkerers, and anyone who needs to know (and change) exactly what signal their AMD GPU is putting on the wire.
