Do a clean install within the driver installer and use a ddu as well. Disable internet so ms updates dont screw up the installation.
This is strange, it`s not working properly for me. Even after i ddu in safemode with disabled internet I`m on windows 11.

Are your chipset drivers and BIOS up to date as well?

Yes, i did update with the new released chipset driver before i updated to 21.9.1 Enable PBO in bois is not mandatory ? Will try my best to fiddle around and see what i can come up with. *Edit* I fixed it, I reverted back to Windows 10, the driver works fine now with all functions enabled. I got higher scores in 3dmark out of the box and games runs smooth, I`m really happy with this driver. Kudos.

Great news the SAM feature enabled on Navi 10 with Zen2!

Nice performance boost in 3dmark benchmarks with rx 6900xt, peformance is up against last driver. Running very smooth on games. Perfect drivers for me , loving it. Keep up the good work AMD šŸ™‚ !

Could you sneak us a peak whether or not HAGS will introduce noticeable gains compared to team green's implementation?
There are almost no gains and tons od issues with HAGS enabled with "green's implementation". Microsoft stated multiple times that HAGS itself is not ready yet and current state is kinda "experimental"

I'm just wondering since it has been put on the back burner for so long, I also heard some people mentioning architectural differences in which case AMD would profit more. Perhaps when W11 launches there will be a new light on HAGS, being implemented more substantially along with DirectStorage.

The idea of hags is great, the implementation on windows 10 has been garbage for the most part but who knows maybe with the reworks on windows 11 and directx 12 ultimate we might see some actual gains

Thanks AMD for fixing Vega's flickering, although I'm not bold enought to test It again (couldn't see the boot screen last time)

It is. I seen it when viewing the logs in OBS. I have the exact card and the entry is in the registry now. DirectX Ultimate is not ready, but it's a WDDM 3.0 driver.

AMD took 6 months to fix the random stuttering/fps lock (55fps/115fps), the Dev on Discord on DirectX server said driver v27 was buggy & rush while v30 will improve on RT performance, etc in up coming months.

can someone tell me if potplayer64 freeze and shows this error when you play a movie and close it while it plays? If I stop the movie it doesn't freeze when I close, with some other movies it doesn't happen at all, and with some, it doesn't happen once, and then it happens. It just becomes worse for every driver. Something was seriously weird with potplayer. I went through each setting 1 by 1 and I saw some settings doesn't exist anymore, and somehow after the driver update, it showed the error after closing. WEIRD as hell.. Like one setting for the mouse that you can back forward 1 sec or forward 1 sec which was gone after a RESET to potplayer after there was only 5 sec. I still have the weird Hardware decoding corruption. I sent AMD bug report, it will take them ages to fix it now. FIXED the potplayer issue: I RESET the program and no error. but still artefacting. Did anyone notice lower performance or FPS?

That sounds like a potplayer64 issue not AMD, I use a number of codecs for playback in things like VLC and Others with out issue. Potplayer64 might have some compatibility issues, try sending them the bug report so they can see if it's a problem on their end

It happens with MPC-HC and anything that uses D3D11 DXVA. I tried them all. with the built-in decoders and LavFilters. without D3D11 it works fine. It's SPECIFIC to D3D11 DXVA and happens in specific movies. it doesn't happen for HDR movies at all. I mean it worked fine with 21.5.2 and ALL DRIVERS BELOW. what happened with drivers 21.6.x and above?? I didn't change anything. The potplayer settings are years even from 970 and 1080 and I've never had this kind of issue. Also, another bug, if you have Freesync enabled at least for OLED TV and you installed the driver, you are doomed to have the Freesync enabled all the time even if you disabled it. it stuck in a mix of Freesync disable but still active as for what the OLED think. if you have Freesync disabled from the TV and you install the driver, there are no issues. but the funny thing is you would think that Enabling Disabling would really do that right?? no, sometimes the driver just thinks you still have it. I mean tons of bugs, don't you think? if not everyone encounters bugs it doesn't mean no one won't. And again, it only happens with driver 21.6.x and above! Weird ass bugs. I have checked again and it happens with every DXVA hardware acceleration. D3D9, also Copy Back and Native

I've been binging House again for the last several weeks. Using the latest MPC-HC and LAVfilters DX11, no HDR. The videos play fine and never had any crashes or feeezes. Do you have an example video that has issues? Do you have the device as auto detect?
data/avatar/default/avatar04.webp
Yeah I've been using DXVA on DX11 no problems since the issue was presumed fixed on the UWP drivers and I moved to the 21.9.1 today and everything is still working. Are you on windows 10 or windows 11

No problems with PotPlayer at all. I have testes last few versions of UWP driver and PotPlayer. D3D11 DXVA decoder + D3D11 renderer. I don't use external codecs.

I've not heard of the tv freesync stuck issue as an actual amd side issue but I do have a freesync tv that does the same thing when connected to my Xbox series X, adaptive sync is just stuck on regardless if turned off on the Xbox or not but it's also a first Gen freesync display so that's just inherent issues of Gen 1 Freesync which does have quite a few issues that cannot be fixed as they are board issues

Fun fact, I added the support for x264 L5.1 DXVA decoding to MPC-HC for AMD back in 2010 šŸ˜€ Wow, that takes me back...
