Download MSI Afterburner 3.0.0 Beta 14 (2013-08-16)
MSI Afterburner 3.0.0 Beta 14 Download - Guru3D and MSI have been working hard on AfterBurner, today we release an updated this Beta revision of Afterburner, this application successfully secured the leading position on graphics card utilities. This new revision adds many new stuff, including preliminary beta H.264 Intel Quicksync Hardware Encoding support.
Today we release an updated Beta revision of Afterburner, this application successfully secured the leading position on graphics card utilities. We're happy to see MSI Afterburner is leading the overclock applications. MSI Afterburner is ready, this version also supports the control of NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan, 760, 770 and 780. If you get the card, you may want to try it.
Change list:
- Add MSI new card supported
- Added NCP4206 voltage regulators support to provide compatibility with future custom design MSI graphics cards
- Improved voltage control layer architecture provides better compatibility with automatic voltage control on NCP4206 voltage
- regulators
- RivaTuner Statistics Server updated to version 5.3.0 with the following improvements:
- Added external encoding plugin modules support. Plugin modules architecture provides an easy way to implement different hardware accelerated video encoders in RivaTuner Statistics Server.
- Added benchmark mode for external encoding plugin modules. Benchmark mode allows you to verify if hardware encoder is configured and working properly as well as estimate expected hardware encoding performance.
- Added external QSV.DLL encoding plugin. The plugin provides you high-performance hardware accelerated H.264 encoding on Intel QuickSync Video capable platforms. Intel QuickSync H.264 encoder is able to compress 1080p video at 60 FPS with no major CPU performance hit. Hardware accelerated Intel QuickSync H.264 encoder was introduced special to compete with NVIDIA’s ShadowPlay hardware accelerated H.264 encoder. Free hardware accelerated H.264 video capture and encoding is no longer an exclusive selling point of NVIDIA Kepler GPU family, now the same functionality is available on much wider range of hardware platforms on both AMD and NVIDIA GPU based graphics cards absolutely for free!
- Tweaked encoder queue depth. The queue depth is no longer hardcoded to 32 frames, now it is equal to recording framerate
- Decreased server startup time on OS versions with no any service pack version installed
- Improved function offsets cache validation algorithm in hooking system
- Added proxy Direct3D library protection system. Now RivaTuner Statistics Server forcibly disables application hooking and blocks OSD, screen capture and video recording functionality if application is running via the proxy Direct3D runtime library (various game mods based on hacked D3D DLLs). Compatibility with most of such applications can still be improved by enabling custom Direct3D runtime libraries support in the application profile

Thanks for the hard work! Updated!
Will install Intel HD Drivers and share some system RAM to gpu to test QuickSync H.264.
Cheers!

A few notes of configuring Intel QuickSync encoding in MSI Afterburner. First, ensure that your hardware supports QuickSync Video technology. The following hardware is required:
- Intel CPU with QuickSync Video technology support (SandyBridge, Ivy Bridge or Hawell core). You may use this link into to see if your Intel CPU supports this technology.
- Mainboard with integrated Intel HD graphics support (refer to your mainboard specs to see it)
To use QuickSync on such platform you must:
- Enable Intel HD graphics in your mainboard BIOS. If it is enabled correctly, you must see Intel HD graphics active in your device manager next you your discrete AMD/NVIDIA graphics card
- Install the latest Intel HD graphics driver. QuickSync works via Intel HD driver so using outdated driver may degrade encoding performance drastically
There are 3 QuickSync acceleration modes available in MSI Afterburner:
- Disabled acceleration - uses CPU software emulation. It is left for performance testing/debugging only and it REQUIRES additional Intel Media SDK installation. It is not recommended to use this mode.
- Direct3D9 acceleration - uses Direct3D9Ex accelerated encoding. This mode is only available under Windows Vista and newer OS. This mode REQUIRES connecting monitor to Intel HD graphics output or forcing monitor detection for Intel HD graphics. Detailed instructions on forcing monitor detection for enabling QuickSync can be found here.
- Direct3D11 acceleration - uses Direct3D11.1 accelerated encoding. This mode is only available under Windows 8 and newer OS. This mode doesn't require any monitor detection tricks so it is strongly recommended to use it if it is available (i.e. if you're under Windows
.
To verify that everything is set up properly just hit the button. It will try to encode some short video in your current desktop resolution and show you the results. If you system is not configured properly, benchmark won't start.

Our previous discussion of "broken" MKV implementation in beta 11 thread resulted in massive trolling and one banned user. To prevent it please follow the advice given in the previous beta thread and leave beta testing for more experienced users. Thanks.

Stay away from this thread please. BS is what you post, I'd like to avoid dealing with those who simply cannot configure application and focus on real problems. I'm not forcing you to use betas, please don't force me to solve your "bugs".

unwinder THX FOR THIS ADDONS. very cool, remind me of virtu MVP that i used to use just for Quicksync. u made it easier now, so the best mode is D3D11 that only works via windows 8? might be a good reason to get it, since i want so much to use NVIDIA shadowplay or my QS option ,again thank you

Wow a moderator acting all high and mighty instead of helping. Why making a thread open if i'm not allowed to post bugs. So you say i'm not allowed to post bugs I thought that's the reason for Betas. LOL

I'm a developer of this tool and I'm able to see a difference between software issue and newbie issues. The previous MKV flame that you started in beta 11 thread ended by seeing that your reported "fix it ASAP, nothing works" bug was caused by your own system configuration issues (read it as your own ambitious stupidity). The previous flame you started ended by one ban. The previous flame you started ended by wasting a lot of time into nothing. I don't want to see it happening again and don't need "helpful" bugreports of such user. People like you coming here poison each and every release.

Can you just stop wasting my time please? There are instructions on setting up QuickSync encoder and instructions on verifying that it us configured properly above right in this thread. RTFM and stop flooding here PLEASE!
