AMD Catalyst 11.7b Hotfix (8.871 June 27)

Affects only VLIW4 architecture (69xx cards).

 

And it doesn't affect all videos. Youtube videos and some tv rips I have here crash it, but I've seen some vimeo (I think) and another videos without the crash happening.

I'm not sure what the crash cause is, but it's not extended to all videos.

 

Correct - because as far as I know - the video acceleration via hardware is done only for some services (YT included).
Best way is to use MPC-HC with EVR renderer for the tests.

 

is there a change mobility driver to work on win xp ? or where can i find it ?

thanks

 

It depends on the codec, e.g. Xvid isn't accelerated but H.264 is.
AFAIK.

Or any other player that supports DXVA and the right codecs.

With these drivers (APP SDK 2.5), the GPU Caps Viewer (1.13.0) OpenCL test "1M Particles" is faster with CPU than GPU.

 

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGbbq! please say it's true! this problem has been bugging the crap out of me! will DL this afternoon and keep my fingers crossed. :infinity:

 

Make sure you guys don't use MSI Afterburner 2.2.0 BETA 5, use the BETA 4 instead, as BETA 5 is causing BSOD's too.

 

For me MSI Afterburner 2.2.0 BETA 5 is working good with the new drivers.

 

it is possible that when you uninstall the previous driver, it uninstalled open CL too

try to download and install a separate openCL driver

this used to happen to me, but with HDMI aoudio drivers

 

no problems here

 

I am going back to use the 11.4 preview march 23 drivers, because all these other ones are giving me pauses in games, its becoming annoying. Sonic allstars was running at 60 frames all the time, not its like 60-23-40. and other games as well. all this pausing crap. Going back to the 11.4

 

The wonderful thing of guru3d is that people find problems where they are not.

Working fine here.

 

Yea I am getting that, like a 1 second lag spike every 10 seconds or something, getting annoying for defo, I found that moving the mouse quickly got me out of the lag quicker.

Wonder if it has anything to do with the top corner mouse fix

 

Well i had to go back to using 10.5 the drivers from the disc which has always worked good. Because the 11 series were giving me issues on games which i haven't played using the 11 series before.

 

Hi The General....

What Games u have problem with, i have no problem with 11.7 drivers most of them i tested gives good Fps with out stuttering , DIrt 3, Fear 3, Duke Nukem Forever works good, only one i got stutter is Witcher 2 is bcoz of CPU Bottleneck........ Anyway Good Stable Drivers , this one fixed Mouse Bug , Vlc GPU acceleration and more to find out........

 

Hi all.
I don't know if other have same situation like me, but I got overlay renderer ploblem with Catalyst 11.6 and 11.7, my card is 5850. The picture drawing is messed up (crop when switchung to full-screen or resizing windows, or draw only in right-bottom cornor of screen) when using overlay mixer with subtitle on (function with player built-in or Vobsub), but seem ok without subtitle off. It's ok using other renderer like Haali、EVR、VMR9, and it is ok with Catalyst 11.5 or before version. Are there any suggestions? thanks.

 

Please fill up your profile. What computer do you have? What player do you use? On WinXP overlay is good, on Win 7 use native EVR, EVR C/A or smth else, but not Overlay, because it doesnt work properly there (and not supposed to).

 

My OS is Win7 x64 and player is MPC/KMP. I'm not saying general using or comparing but the specific scenario. It's all normal before I update recent drivers. If you don't encountered like I said above then that's just good.:smoke: Hope this is just my case.
