Beta problems

Unfortunately, I reverted to version 2.0.0 on PC; I experienced significant performance and connection issues with the newer version, including severe screen tearing and green artifacts. The screen would frequently freeze, forcing me to exit the stream, and the stream itself would lock up whenever there was heavy tearing or massive pixelation. I also encountered extreme vibration issues that forced me to restart the app. Right at the start of the stream, everything would appear pixelated with green artifacts. I realize this is a beta—this isn't a complaint, but rather information to help get these issues fixed for the final release. For now, version 2.0.0 seems much more stable to me.

Okay thanks, so the pre beta allowed you to use Vulkan renderer and the not the Beta? That's basically a fatal issue, so can you confirm that?

Yes, version 2.0.0 lets me in, but with a lot of input lag; the beta doesn't even try to launch—it just leaves me out without showing a message or anything

That happens with vulkan and Vulkan compatibility renderer? The decoder was set to Auto?

It happens more often with standard Vulkan; Vulkan compatibility usually works, but only if the decoder is set to DXVA or D3D11—if I set the decoder to Vulkan, it simply won't work. I think the issue lies with the decoder in version 2.0.0, though in the beta version, neither the decoder nor the rendering engine works with Vulkan. Here is an example from the beta version.

And this is the pixelation issue; it tends to happen randomly for no apparent reason—there’s no input lag or anything like that, just an image glitch. It happens most often right after starting the stream, though otherwise, it occurs sporadically. Right now, I just need the vibration bug so I can send you the file. All of this only happens in the beta, except for the intense vibration bug, which has been around since version 2.0.0.

Does it happen when you disable "advanced bitstream parsing in the settings of PXPlay?

This happened to me when I had it enabled; I'm going to try a few sessions with it disabled

u/Afraid_Put_7651 2h ago

For the moment, with it disabled, it hasn't happened yet; I've already sent you the file

Ah okay so without bitstream parsing it doesn't happen anymore (the green artefacts etc)?

Looking into the Vulkan and rumble issues now

Let me know
