AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 22.10.2 - Driver download and discussion

LINK

Fixed Issues

• Radeon™ Super Resolution may fail to trigger after changing resolution or HDR settings on games such as Nioh™ 2.
• Vertical Refresh Sync set globally to Always Off may cause system stuttering or driver timeout during video playback using Radeon™ RX 6000 series GPUs.
• Driver timeout may occur using HEVC hardware encoding on Radeon™ RX 6000 series GPUs.
• Dropped frames may occur during video playback using hardware acceleration on Chromium-based browsers with Radeon™ RX 6000 series GPUs.
• Chromium-based browsers may experience video stuttering on extended monitors with mixed refresh rates using Radeon™ RX 6000 series GPUs.
• Oculus dashboard menu and rendered controllers may appear bouncing/wobbly on Oculus Quest 2 with some AMD Graphics Products such as the Radeon™ RX 6800 XT Graphics.
• While previewing the timeline in VEGAS Pro™, some colors may appear inverted.

Known Issues

• GPU utilization may be stuck at 100% in Radeon performance metrics after closing games on some AMD Graphics Products such as Radeon™ 570.
• When Radeon™ Anti-Lag is enabled, a beep can be heard when pressing shift + back key. [Resolution targeted for 22.11.1]
• Elite Dangerous may crash upon launch on Radeon™ RX 6000 series GPUs. [Resolution targeted for 22.10.3]
• Stuttering may occur during video playback using hardware acceleration with Firefox on some AMD Graphics Products such as the Radeon™ RX 6900 XT Graphics.
• Brief display corruption may occur when switching between video and game windows on some AMD Graphics Products such as the Radeon™ RX 6700 XT.
  • Improvements have been made in 22.10.2 to reduce occurrence for some configurations.

Important Notes

• AMD Software Capture and Stream features and Overlay support for Clone mode and Eyefinity display configurations will be introduced at a later date.

 

i think this driver for gotham knight and new games ..
but no any Highlights in this page note !

 

Installing now! Will report back soon.

EDIT: Lost my overclock settings after an in-place upgrade done through adrenaline software. Other than so far so good. Make sure to export your OC settings so you can load them back after upgrading to this driver.

 

Installed, OC settings still in place. Testing games now

 

Ran Time Spy and got the same as 22.10.1

Score 17 603 with AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT(1x) and Intel Core i7-8086K Processor

List of known issues since Adrenalin 22.5.1 ~ 22.10.2 (Green > Fixed issues ; Red > Pending)

 

Nice to see a resolution target at some known issues. Let's see if they will reach those targets

 

This drivers are whql. (not beta whql)

 

Not a good start...
Lock up while playing a video with mpc + madvr while using chrome.
Display output freezes, audio continues to play until it stops after while too.
No driver timeout detected.
Maybe incompatibility with MadVR.
Will test it again without MadVR.

Chrome stutter while browsing (not the video playback issue) is still there too.
Twitch still has a bunch of dropped frames. Switching the angle backend makes it better though.
// edit
weird, it works with the default backend now.

After a few hours of browsing + videos running on the second monitor (in chrome) no timeout so far.
MPC-HC (EVR instead of MadVR) still needs testing.
Gaming + browsing/videos still needs testing too.

But the stutter in chrome is driving me nuts.

//edit
nope.
freezing/black screen not fixed while playing videos + gaming.
back to 22.5.1

 

Hoping Steam Deck gets supported soon.

 

Wtf...they fixed chrome and they moved the bug to Firefox?
Didn't install this driver yet but this seems strange...will report back if I get this weird bug in Firefox.

 

Fortnite stutter à lot !!!

 

It will, you'll be rebuilding the shader cache - send your thanks to Unreal

Issue number 7 on the list posted by Macer so yeah, it isn't fixed yet - I'll be skipping these drivers too.

 

Every time you update the drivers it will have to rebuild the shader cache in Fortnite and other games. Wait 5 minutes or so to let it finish. I don't know why they don't add a warning or loading screen until the game rebuilds the shader cache.

 

OpenGL still sucks in with PCS3 emulator/Xemu. Vulkan in PS3 emulator runs flawless as usual.
As you can see i get weird textures in OpenGL, and in Buffy, massive stuttering running between 20-40fps, unplayable.


Video quality and Colors are just like i want using RGB 4:4:4 Pixel Format Studio Limited RGB, Color temps to 6600, video to custom brightness 10%. So far I'm really enjoying these drivers, the only problem is the OpenGL stuff using Xemu and certain emulators, guess they will slowly get around to fixing them. Gotta figure out how to play Xbox games, i might look into Cxbx-Reloaded

Overall, better than the previous ones when it comes to overall performance.
Also On a positive note, performance in Tennis World tour game, before with certain other drivers the framerate will be around 36-45fps, only going up to 60 when i record. Well now these new drivers, the framerate stays around 59-60fps all the time/GPU power level stays above 40 now. However, If i can't figure how to play xbox games, going to go back to the older drivers again.

 

Still system failure driver...now after exit Uncharted (Steam big Picture) to Desktop and my system restarted on its own...uhm...

 

I waited and played half an hour ...

 

Display may flicker during install....

Damn monitor lost signal. Although remote connection worked on my tablet and rebooted that way.

This problem happened after I upgraded from windows 10 to windows 11

But one benefit from upgrading windows is that cyber punk 2077 is working correctly in windows 11, in windows 10. I had weird random flickering black textures. Loaded up in windows 11 and no flickering

AMD drivers are weird.. ATi drivers was weird too...so guess it passed along generations

 

Oh...that is not supposed to happen. Do you have the game set to render in DX11 or DX12 ? It stutters on both APIs ?
