Windows 10: Dual monitor system with GPU Scheduling enabled video playback issue while gaming.

Checking if anyone else experiences the same thing.


I enabled GPU Scheduling, then I played a video on my second screen as I normally do and after opening a game and getting into proper gameplay, the video would play very slowly, with the video not keeping up with the audio at all. Alt-tabbing instantly fixed this even with the game still running and visible on my main monitor. I'd alt-tab back and forth and as soon as the game had focus, the video would run terribly.


Disabling GPU Scheduling and rebooting again fixed this, so I'm leaving it off for now, as most Windows "enhancements" tend to have issues like this.


Not going to waste my time with specs since I'm not asking for technical help, just want to see if others experience the same thing, regardless of system.


It's worth noting that the video would play back entirely normally when I was in the game's main menu, but as soon as I got control of my character the issue would crop up. I imagine GPU Scheduling makes the GPU prioritize the game over everything else, but in this case the performance difference if there even was one, the game already plays at 120+ FPS without scheduling did not seem worth throttling my video playback into dust.

Single monitor=no transparency in Start menu on dual monitor system

Hello, I can't find any information about this one so here it goes.

My Windows 10 is a dual monitor system and I don't get this problem when both monitors are enabled but when I game I disable the secondary display and then on the primary display the Start menu will lose transparency. It makes me sad.

I have installed color profiles for both displays and set them as primary profile for each one. I have also calibrated the color of both displays.

Primary display is AOC 2460 connected with DVI-D

Secondary display is Acer G246HL Connected with HDMI

Graphics card is Nvidia Gerforce 1050 TI 4GB and it has latest drivers

Operating system is Windows 10 Pro v. 1803 (OS-build 17.134.228)

Steps to reproduce:

• On dual monitor system disable secondary monitor
• Open Start menu and transparency will be lost

Additional information:

CPU overclocked with multiplier but was at Stock settings when OS was installed

GPU overclocked with Asus GPU Tweak II

 

Video playback

Thanks for the update. I would like to know if the zooming of videos occurs on a single web browser or regardless of which web browser that you use?

Let's try to enable/disable the Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering option in Internet Properties and see if the issue will persist. To do this, please follow the steps below:

1. Type-in internet options in Cortana.
2. Click on the Advanced tab.
3. Under Accelerated graphics, tick on the check box beside Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering option to enable or disable it.

If you continue to have this issue even after performing the above steps, please reply to this thread. The system will notify me so I can get back to you and provide you more answers.

 

Video playback issue on external monitor

Hello,

I've got an issue with some videos that are not being played on my external monitor.

I have Dell Inspiron 7567 laptop and Dell P2213t monitor connected via DVI-D to HDMI cable.

Some videos just won't work on the external monitor, while on laptop there is no problem with playback. Audio is also good.

The frame of video just freezes on the monitor.

This issue is found only on a part of videos/websites. Maybe it is a problem of codec or something.

Does anyone know what is up with that monitor? is it software issue or harware/cable issue?
