  1. Windows Media Overlay fails to display artwork in volume overlay only


    As you can see below, the volume overlay fails to display the artwork embedded in the music file, but somehow manages to display it on the lock screen's control overlay. The issue with the volume overlay is seen everywhere in the system, and only manages to display it on repeated looping of the file.

    It has been a long-time issue, and it pisses me off a lot but I recently noticed this lock screen glitch, which could be seen as suitable evidence for the problem. I have changed devices and reset my OS several times in the past for different reasons, and every time managed to end up on this problem.

    Radeon Overlay not displaying all options

    Ok, I got a question. The options to hide the overlay are confusing. What are the steps to turn on the overlay in-game? Not interested in logging much at the moment. Is Alt-R part of turning it on/off?

  3. Windows volume & brightness overlay slider missing

    I cannot see the volume slider overlay and brightness slider overlay on top left of screen when i press the designated buttons on my laptop keyboard.

    Brightness and volume actions work but cannot see the overlay for some reason. even tried recent update of windows and restarting the services and even disabling the device in device manager.

    Any help will be appreciated

    thank you

    Radeon Overlay not displaying all options

    The performance overlay works great in game and I'm impressed with the ReLive recording quality.

    It's the Alt+R desktop panel overlay that isn't showing the correct (Performance and Chill) items still, which is a tad puzzling.

    EDIT
    Scratch that!
    According to AMD's overview '
    Radeon Overlay In-Game menu provides two additional choices, which are:
    • Performance Monitoring
    • Radeon Chill
    So those two options only appear in-game. Apologies for leading people astray.
