[Help with AMD WX9100]

Hi piccinaezio,

which kind of signal connection and adapters [e.g. DP-DVI, DP-HDMI] you are using?

We're having such trouble with DeLOCK Adapter DisplayPort 1.2 mal > DVI female 4K Active black [DeLOCK item no. 62599] 
on AMD WX7100 whenever using 50Hz and/or Custom Formats. Just as with attached [onto DP-DVI adapter] DVI-HDMI adapters.

Same-same with DeLOCK Adapter mini DisplayPort 1.2 mal > DVI female 4K Active black [DeLOCK item no. 62603] on WX9100.

We're able to troubleshoot these behavior while using the ”original” ATI/Sapphire Active DisplayPort (M) to Single-Link DVI adapter on WX7100
and ATI/Sapphire Active mini DisplayPort (M) to Single-Link DVI adapter on WX9100.  

Nowadays it's quite a big deal is to find and purchase these adapters. Sapphire has stopped the distribution and won't deliver them with Radeon Pro Cards anymore.
There where some OEMs in the market, but they're hard to find as well.

 

Unfortunately it's not that easy to bypassing DVI in total. There's life in the old dog yet. 😉

 

As a side note:

No matter of Signal Sink [e.g. NOVA MCTRL660 (DVI-in), different projectors [DVI-in], different displays and so on].
No matter of OS [Win 7 Pro 64bit; Win 10 Pro 1607/1703/1709/1903 64bit; Win 10 LTSB/LTSC 2016/2019 64bit] nor AMD driver [17Q4.1/18Q4.1/19Q2.1].

In addition, as of now, we've nothing but trouble while using any other AMD Driver as 17Q4.1, no matter of combination of OS/Driver.

 

Kind regards

Nic

 

 

 

 

We already tried using official AMD adapters but we have the same issue, we also tried Lindy's active cables Mini-DisplayPort -> DVI-D. No matter what adapters, OSs, driver version we use.

What Operating system are you using on the production computers and how many outputs are you using at what resolution?

We tried using Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016, Enteprise 1803, Enteprise 1809, Enterprise 1903. Outputting at 1080p 60hz x 6 monitors

Hi, we use for our Watchout computers the AMD WX9100, sometimes one screen goes black for few seconds without any reason. Have anyone experienced the same? Did you fix it?

Thanks

No, I installed windows 10 Enterprise Full, not LTSB

Hi @Jeff Miller, we didn't tested for so much (max 8 hours) so i can't say, maybe in next days we can try.
We didn't anything to make HAP play on our machines, did you try HAP or HAP Q movies? (We tried only HAP)

[Windows 10, 10Core, W9100 issues]

Hi all,

Our display configuration is the following:

• Windows 10 Enterprise 1809 (Tweaked as of Dataton guide)
• Asus WS X299 Sage
• i9 7900X
• 32 GB of ram
• NVMe Samsung 970 Pro
• AMD Pro WX9100
• DataPath VisionRGB-E2S
• BlackMagic DeckLink 8K Pro
• BlackMagic DeckLink Quad 2
• Motu 828-MK3
• Midi Controller APC40-MKII

After a week of testing we established that:

• Using Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 1607 Watchout Display shows the same error as @Jeff Miller (both with AMD 2017 Q4.1 and AMD 2018 Q4 drivers).
• We installed Windows 10 Enterprise 1809 and AMD 2017 Q4.1 drivers and it kinda worked but with 4 parallel live input all of them was lagging and freezing (also pre-recorded videos)
• We finally tried installing Windows 10 Enterprise 1809 and AMD 2018 Q4 drivers, it now works without quirks, WatchPoint now starts immediately and it doesn't freeze anymore (6 outputs 1920x1080@60, 4 SDI live input FullHD and 1 DVI live input 1080p, 1 NDI Input 1920x1080@60, 2 UHD Videos playing, HAP and H264).
• We noticed performance boost setting these options in bios:
  - Hyper-Threading: OFF
  - C-States, P-States, Intel SpeedShift/SpeedStep: OFF

[New config]

Hi, I'm carrying out the tests with the new PC so configured

MB Asus x299 Sage

32 GB ram

CPU Intel I9-7900x

SSD Samsung 970 PRO M.2

AMD WX9100

Decklink 8K PRO (4 sdi)

Windows 10 - Watchout 6.2.2

In 2 days test, still no problem, continuous.

[Problem audio loop 6.2.1]

Get further tests with other machines and watchout 6.2.1 but the audio loop problem remains. No news from Dataton? Thank you

[Problem audio loop 6.2.1]

hello, I installed watchout 6.2.1 to solve the problem of the audio loop,

but there are still problems, the video runs regularly but the audio is heard only twice, the third disappears.

does anyone have the same problem ?

[Decklink 8K Pro]

Hi, has anyone already tried Decklink 8K Pro with 4 HD-SDI inputs?
