AMD Link: What do you want to see in future versions?

Hey guys,

I am looking for your feedback concerning AMD Link - what would you like to see in the future concerning ease of use, features, whatever? Any suggestions would be more than welcome. For those of you who haven't given it a spin yet, you can find it here for iOS and Android. Also FAQ.

Here are some things that will make AMD Link better in my opinion:

1. Linux \ Windows | Raspberry PI \ Fire tv | Browser extension...  support for Game Streaming

2. More temperatures display like CPU temp

I would like to see the AMD Link App able to run on old Samsung Galaxy S3 Smartphone.

There must be many people with older Smartphone like the Galaxy S3 who have upgraded their phone but still have old handset which could be used as a PC Case Display, camera and AMD Link 'terminal'.

I have a Galaxy S7 which runs AMD Link fine but I would like to be able to run nit on my old S3 as well.

Thanks.

This thread is for the AMD Link APP, not for the mobile or APU drirvers nor for drivers in general.

Please post your question in the appropriate thread.

Greetings,

I have used AMD Link on my Android phone and it has been the best game streaming experience compared to the Steam Link app (bad latency, frame drops), and other apps that I have tried. The experience on AMD link was quite impressive with how fluid it was.
However, Steam Link allows me to play on my TV in another room (though not a great experience), AMD Link does not.
Testing the app on my Fire TV stick (APK sideload):
  • The app's user interface was stretched across the whole screen as the main menu is portrait only. Landscape mode would be great.
  • Without a touchscreen, the app is useless. I could not press any buttons on the app using my controller or Firestick remote. If the UI could be controlled using a gamepad like on the Steam Link app, that would be great.
I know the app is designed for smartphones, but I'd love to be able to use software from AMD themselves on my Fire stick rather than Steam Link which was quite inconsistent.

Landscape mode, I want to place this sideways and see video card stats so I can plug in my phone while gaming.

Logging directly on phone, ability to share graphs, export as csv, image, useful formats is the main point.


User interface:
Home screen is pointless to user experience, have big button shortcuts to features.
On each screen, having a button for quick access to relive replay/recording/gif creation on any page that you'd use for gaming would be useful.

Please open source the AMD link client so that there can be for example a raspberry pi port. I just sold my 1080ti to buy a radeon, this a feature I will be losing by doing so.
Supporting phones gets you a lot of client devices quickly, but they are all phones. People want more modes of use.

Connect to - Android TV. So that I can enjoy my games not just at my monitor or my mobile but also my big 49" 4K TV. 

I have tried side loading the latest amd link APK, but it appears to be still in mobile portrait mode that spread across the screen.

This shouldn't be hard to fix in an update.

Keep up the god work

I would like

1) A stable zero rpm option, that does not involve me dancing around the pc half naked with a drum.

2) A checker that makes sure that all the screens are at the same HZ, no 2000MHZ bug, even if that means i will have to live trough a short flicker every time i reboot the pc, without having to do that manually.

I want to see the Radeon graphics drivers installers NOT CREATING the three scheduled tasks related to AMD Link they have been creating without asking for the my permission. I don't want my system bloated with stuff that I have no intention of using, but most importantly, I should be informed of any scheduled tasks that the drivers' installer wants to create and be asked permission before they are created.

then you have to comply in the correct section or use the appropriate tools...

I have a request for this give us an option to never install it

while your at it give us an option to not have the hidden amd uep installed with 19.5.1

while your at it give us an option to not install the steam vr msi on my ssd on vega64

I shouldnt have to be going around pulling junk out of your installers they should be optional

while your at it stop with the radeon settings advisor spam

i have said im not interested in chill/enhanced sync/vsr

stop highlighting it every time i start amd settings

RE:

Please open a separate post requesting that and also submit an AMD Reporting form if you want any hope of that happening. 
i think the conflicting advice to use VSR and also to set the monitor to native resolution illogical.
AMD should not advise using Chill unless they fix it.

Leave AMD Link for now as it is and focus on AMD Radeon driver and software stability...this is more important than Link

driver stability. since windows 1809 radeon driver become unstable in daily usage such chromium browser usage. With 1903 they become really usntable, it's like to be back in the 89/me/2k/xp era..

Wrong place to report that I think. Please open a separate thread asking for help, define what system you have and someone may help you out.
Thanks.

Navi needs to be a slam dunk architecture-wise for them at this point, something like 50% more performance/Watt to be possibly competive with whatever Nvidia pushes out at 7nm.

Please concentrate on rock solid drivers and have two branches, solid and experimental and put all the new features in the experimental branch so I can avoid beta testing features I don't want and others who want to be cutting edge can.

Instead of adding mega on mega of "useless things"..
I reiterate: greater safety test and established in the drivers

Instead of new extras, I would like to see that old problems have been solved. I have the RX580 and with this video card old games like Fable Anniversary or games from NFS series - Underground2, Undercover, Most Wanted are not running (I see in internet that other people have the same problem). It's been a year since I bought this video card, I update every new drivers release, but the problems still remain. With an old R9 280X video card, these games run without any problems. Why? Is the DX12 the problem or something else? When will this issue be corrected?? Or this company only interested in reaping the profits from the products it sells and then no longer cares for the customers? Is that correct?

Did you create a separate thread / question about that issue?
Did you file AMD Reporting Form or open an email support request?
You can still purchase old R9 280x GPU on Ebay, if you don't have one already, as a temporary workaround.
Thanks.

(1). If you have a dual slot motherboard with PCIe3.0x16 or dual PCIe3.0x8 you could have your RX580 as your primary GPU and add the R9 280x as your secondary GPU on the motherboard. You will not suffer performance loss on the RX580.

(2). For email support go here: Online Service Request | AMD 

(3). To open a new thread go here: https://community.amd.com/community/support-forums/drivers-software 
ASK it button will help you get a thread started.

Hope that is the information you wanted.

The RX580 is Polaris while the R9 280X is Tahiti which is slower. 

For alternate frame rendering the performance will suffer compared to a pair of RX 580s 

I was responding to a private message from render1967 

I was just pointing out they could have both of those GPU (RX580 and R9 280X) on one motherboard.
Yes sure I understand the R9 280X is slower than RX 580, but it would be a temporarily workaround sorender1967 could run the games that will not run on the RX580.

For alternate frame rendering - DX11 Crossfire will not work at all with those two GPU's (RX 580 and R9 280X).
I doubt DX12 MultiGPU would work very well if at all for gaming, you would probably see negative scaling of Ashes of the Singularity for example. 
In any case,  DX11 Crossfire is now dead. AMD tried to drop it on RX Vega 56/64 but backtracked. No support for it on the Radeon VII. No support for it on RX5700 or RX5700XT.
DX12 MultiGPU is not getting implemented by developers on new games. Still not there on BFV, for example. 
Nvidia similar story with SLI see: Don’t buy two video cards! - YouTube 

One thing you can use MultiGPU for is Blender, but RX580 and R9 280X are not a good choice for that.
R9 280X is GCN 1.0 and that does not work on Blender versions later than 2.79.
Blender 2.79 had  a major performance boost on AMD GPUs versus versus 2.78, so better off with 1 RX580 on 2.79.
