Dammit, same problem as the last driver. If the monitor goes to sleep, it takes a while to awake, and then once it does no media will play, be it local, streaming, or whatever. Streaming like youtube and Netflix just will never load, and local files will just give audio with a black screen.

Nothing to report from the Atiapfxx.blb file for these drivers, Fallout 76 support (Though nothing changed profile wise at least in this file.) and then a fix for AC Odyssey crossfire and Vulkan API games. Known issues section remains mostly unchanged too with the addition of Strange Brigade noting a stability problem for DX12 but the game supports Vulkan too so that might be a good alternative still seeing a increased performance over DX11 🙂 (Although no further details on if it's the developers that have to fix this or if it's in whatever driver where this started, issue is listed as of 18.10.2 here but might still exist in earlier drivers before it was noted down in the release notes.)

I have never had that problem at my end. I suspect an OS problem or your gpu bios perhaps even something goes on with your monitor. Reinstall all parts involved. PS: If you already have opened any app and you are leaving your PC intact/idle it is YOUR problem. I hope you do not pause something and go away from your PC for hours. (It is rather foolish and sure no company is obliged to help, when you do not use something just stop/close it)

Its definitely not the OS as this is a fresh installation. GPU acts just fine with any other driver other than the 18.10's. Same with my monitor. So my machine doesn't like something about these in particular. As for the PS, I never do any of that, no. Obvious work-around for now is to just disable the screen turning off in the meantime, just in case there's anyone out there experiencing similar.

This is a codec and hardware acceleration problem. I know you said it works better on other drivers, but this is still the case. Use Geek Uninstaller to uninstall any and all codecs in your system. Install these codes: http://shark007.net/advanced.html And please give this video player a shot with them (MPC-BE x64 with madVR) The sketchy looking download button is actually real, or you can use majorgeeks. No adware or any crap is bundled. Shark007 is legit and it will automatically fix the probems of other codec packs and windows and reset your system codecs correctly as well as add exactly what is required for everything to playback without issue and nothing more. Of course use DDU to uninstall your AMD driver an reinstall it, making absolutely sure in the menu that hardware acceleration is checked. Also, do you happen to have a 75Hz Freesync monitor? If so I know another user with potentially the same issue and I'd be very much interested in talking more about it and submitting an official report if it turns out to be that!

I prefer the normal version and tuning it a bit but I find it easier to manage Media Player Classic, MadVR and LAV this way too although early versions were ad supported so care had to be taken when using the installer. (Hit cancel instead of yes OR no to avoid installing the crap-pack for example for whatever bundle it was at the moment.)

Had no video's load only once so far, did a proper uninstall of the drivers and the problem was fixed for me. On the topic of codecs i just installed MPC-BE and never install any codec pack anymore they are a thing of the past.

Or just Read 😉 But IMO it's the Best Pack in the WEB (and i know almost all of'em 😀) It can run Videos than other Repacks can't.

I have a similar issues but sometimes the screen turns all green! This happens 50% of the time when I put my PC to sleep mode. Sometimes it turns from green to normal other times I have to use the power button on my desktop. I think once I tried turning it on and off from the monitor power button. Windows 7 64bit & RX560 4GB OC.

^^ Yup, on Fury was Enabled also, but i don't see it any more on Vega 😀 That is because Vega is Newer than last game that used Mantle. DX12/VLK -> Is more like it for Vega.

with this driver my windows 10 system crashes during install giving me a system_service_exception after this my computer won't boot anymore. tried repairing with a restore point that worked one time. after a reinstall of windows it again crashes (this time i had no restore point) Grrr 290x card // with older drivers i get micro stuttering in audio and video with games and videos. With the standard windows driver al works fine except games that are asking for newer drivers. only thing i didn't do already is cleaning my card that doesn't have a backplate and is a magnet for dust!

To me mantle is available, maybe it is not available on vega cards anymore as i have radeon r9 380. https://imgur.com/a/uAYHYKO

Mantle was available for me a few months ago. I play BF4, Civ BE and Thief quite alot. Those 3 use Mantle. Lately I can't run Mantle with CivBE (crashes, DX11 works) and Thief shows only flickering with Mantle. BF4 works though. Sometimes Mantle API version is shown, after crashing some games it shows "not available". Mantle version is shown. Star Swarm also works with Mantle. Was running Win10Pro 1809 first, got fed up with files being deleted (got some backups, so nothing was lost) and reinstalled 1803. Same thing.

S! WattMan seems to crash quite often ie. reverting to default settings in Global settings. Can happen during game play or even at boot up. Was less prominent in 18.10.1.

getting amdkmdap error sometimes with this driver

This driver crashed first time right now during the game. The maximum temperature is 65 degrees, there are no problems in tests like time spy, heaven, superposition, it works stably, there are no artifacts either. Has anyone else encountered this? Or maybe the problem is something else, such as OC? :/
