PC Graphics

Hi everyone! With the new AMD drivers - 24.9.1, I'm unable to stream using the 7800XT graphics card.

After starting the live stream, it starts to disconnect after 1-2 minutes.

There wasn't any issue with the previous drivers.

I also noticed that if you stream with these drivers on October 1, 2024, thumbnails for the streams are not created on Twitch. I scrolled through the Twitch stream feed and checked streams without covers, and I found that those users also had AMD graphics cards. Most likely, they just updated their drivers and are streaming with glitches.

I don't know what to do now. Should I just wait for new drivers?

Live streams look like this (screenshot 1), and then they're saved as shown in screenshot 2.

I don't think the problem is with OBS, as I've tried different versions and the glitch appears everywhere. The issue only occurs with the 24.9.1 drivers.

Try to clean reinstall OBS. Im using it to and havent any issues same with 24.9.1. 

or try to down bitrate.

I tried different versions of OBS, but the error persists. Everything works fine only with the 24.8.1 drivers. I created a thread on Reddit, and others have the same issue.

I just tried a clean portable version. The problem still exists.

In the new drivers 24.10.1, the issue has not been resolved.

You're going to have to revert to AMD pro edition drivers like me untill they fix adrenaline drivers a month after they release their update.

Happens every single time.

It seems the problem lies with the B-frames. If you set the B-frames higher than 0 in OBS, the stream crashes and thumbnails for the Twitch live stream are not generated. If you set the B-frames to 0, the issue goes away.
