I use my Sony STR-DH790 Receiver for audio on my PC. If I plug my receiver in my into my RX 6950 XT via HDMI it disables OpenGL and anything that is dependent on OpenGL, such as DaVinci Resolve Studio, will not function. I tried using DP to HDMI adapters in each of the DP slots in addition to using the cards dedicated HDMI slot with the same issue. Anyone have any ideas how to address this?
I just confirmed having the exact same issue, also on an RX 6950 XT. I've been stuck on an old (before mid-December 2023) version of the display drivers to be able to run DaVinci Resolve and a few other applications requiring OpenGL for UI elements, but now a few applications are having issues due to old drivers so I have been forced to upgrade to the latest ones. With any AMD drivers from mid-December 2023 and onwards GPU-Z will not detect OpenGL at all (just like a lot of OpenGL applications), but today I realised that if I unplug the HDMI cable to my soundbar from the graphics card GPU-Z detects OpenGL without issues and OpenGL applications work as expected. After plugging the cable back in GPU-Z again fails to detect OpenGL, _but_ when I turn on the TV connected to the soundbar OpenGL is back once more.
At some point in late 2023 the driver presumably stopped supporting OpenGL when an HDMI device is connected but no actual display is responding. I'm not familiar with how HDMI works in this regard, but since this used to work without problems I would prefer to have this change rolled back and be able to work with my computer without having my TV powered on for no other reason than to enable OpenGL.
can you give me the model of your soundbar?
the TV is connected directly to the soundbar but not graphics crad, right?
besides, we also need to connect a monitor to the graphics crad (using DP or HDMI), right ?
The sound bar is a JBL Bar 9.1. The TV (Philips 65PUS7805) is connected only to the sound bar. The primary monitor (Asus VG27AQ) is connected with DP directly to the graphics card, and a secondary monitor (Acer XB271HUA) is sometimes also connected with DP directly to the graphics card but is not always powered on when connected. The power state of the secondary monitor (or even if it's disconnected) does not affect OpenGL status.
@vhasi is it only Opengl applications have issue? can you help verify DX/Vulkan apps ?
you can download "GPUCapsViwer": it has d3d, ogl and vulkan demos
