[solved] Dynamic refresh rate not working (1 Viewer)

[globaldonkey]

Let me go through device manager and check for driver updates on graphics / audio drivers first. Just updated the Intel display audio driver...... but didn't fix the problem. Had to stop for now - wife wants to watch TV

@Sebastiii ok... driver updates done. Both Intel HD Graphics 620 and Intel Display Audio updated. No joy though with DRR. Sent you a PM.

Good that we succeed to talk over remote connection, so in final it seems that stop playback on audio remove was the culprit here

Thanks for all your help. It’s all been working beautifully for more than a week now. Very stable on the new Intel NUC.

Thanks. I will provide an upgrade for some related issue. It could be nice that you can test it to know if no regression is visible

Hey

If you can test this one : MP hangs after suspend or TV off

Thanks

Thanks!
The fix from Post 23 worked for my AMD APU with Win 10 1703 and latest drivers. Lets see if the black screen issue comes again if I am forced to upgrade Windows...

Just updated to 1.21, and DRR is broken for me again. Symptoms now are very long time to start movies that change refresh rate from default (50 fps) - like 30 seconds to start playback, and then no audio when it finally plays. Disable DRR and playback works (but with judder on 24p movies)

I'm just back on MP to change my "old" HTPC ( more than 10 years... hardware starts to fail ) for a NUC7i3, and I'm directly fall here with refresh rate changer !
Fresh install of Win10 1703, MP 1.21. Exactly same symptoms as you describe globaldonkey from beginning of this thread.

Yeah there's something odd about the Intel HD Audio driver that DRR has problems with and Sebastiii patched for 1.20. I thought 1.21 would have had the patch, but seems not. For now, I've disabled DRR.
