WinUAE 4.5.0 beta series - Page 27

Single non-gsync monitor here, no integrated graphics (desktop PC with antique i7-860 CPU.) In case it's something specific to the GPU BIOS, my card is an Asus Dual GTX 1660 Super Evo OC, DUAL-GTX1660S-O6G-EVO.

Currently have G-Sync off - It seemed to keep randomly breaking hardware optimised video streaming (e.g. Youtube & Netflix) - there would be audio but just a black screen, and I didn't see the benefits of it anyway so have it disabled until further notice ....

NVidia supposedly supports MPO since 461.09 but IDXGIOutput2->SupportsOverlays() return FALSE here (Windows 10 19042, RTX3090, 461.40). MPO reduces latency in windowed mode by allowing front buffer rendering. (Note that only if application supports it, WinUAE won't until driver reports it being supported)

I have gforce 1030 and not this line in log. so seem only cards above 10xx series have this feature. I have too 461.40 driver

GTX 1060 with 461.51 driver on Windows 10 Build 19042 - no trace of 'MultiPlane Overlays supported' entry in winuaelog. Enabling/disabling G-sync makes no difference.
Looks like nvidia made it exclusive to RTX series.

On the Quadro driver release notes it says:

Quote:

Added new display features:
Multiplane Overlay--allows for the GPU hardware to composite the final image planes instead of the operating system's Desktop Windows Manager to reduce system latency. (Requires NVIDIA Quadro RTX and later GPUs; SDR currently supported, HDR support to follow)

So probably a Turing and up feature only, meaning RTX 20xx and GTX 16xx cards.

On a related note: Chrome uses MPO, so on my system I can force vsync off in Chrome via the nvidia control panel and get tearing even in a window on tests like this one: https://www.testufo.com/photo#photo=...&stuttersize=0

@Toni:

Do these BETA series require the installation of DirectX 11 or an additional library? I was wondering, because when I run it on Windows 7 x86 Windows warns that a Direct3D DLL is missing and WinUAE does not run.

I'm worried, will this new version no longer support DirectX 9?

Standard reply: is this really 4.5 beta specific?

Sounds like the usual case: newly installed Windows. Direct3D9 has never been included out of the box. You need to install it manually.

...which has been removed by Micro$oft.

Don't worry, I've uploaded here

It still isn't 4.5 beta related.

Yes, it's related! I installed the BETA version on top of an old version (4.2.1), and I have DirectX 9 installed. The old version works well.

Read the first post again. Must always test with previous official version.
Both D3D9 and D3D11 are supported in Win7SP1.

Then, if it still happens, attach logs as usual. Following the rules reduces unnecessary noise.

btw, I wouldn't call copying executable as "installing"
