I'm having an issue with PowerDVD Live/22, I play 4K HDR content and PowerDVD freezes, it doesn't seem to freeze if I disable Video Enhancements but doing so I lose or seem to lose the HDR effect. Everyting was fine with PowerDVD 21.

My monitors is Dell 34 S3422DWG which supports HDR 400 with FreeSync Premium Pro

Video enhancements should not be enabled when playing 4K/HDR content, as it doesn't do anything. It may just cause performance issues with your computer resources.

It sounds like you don't have HDR set up correctly on your PC. You need to set it up in Windows. Check out some of the FAQs about it maybe:

FYI, your GPU needs to support HDR too, not just your monitor:
