No background videos on AMD laptop, ok on Intel

Help and Support
#1

Hi, I am running OutFox-5.3.0-alpha-4.10.0-Win32-HF1-date-20211001 on an old AMD laptop (Packard Bell TS11-SB).

When I play songs that have video backgrounds they do not display (just a black background).
The same songs with videos play fine in Stepmania 5.0.12 on the same laptop.
I tried this on Windows 10 64 and also Windows 7 64.

I also have an old Intel laptop (Dell Inspiron 14 3451), running Windows 10 64, and this plays the same song with the video in the same version of OutFox without an issue.

There is no obvious error in the log.

So I would guess this is specific to the AMD graphics or something?
I was wondering if anyone has any idea what could be causing it or a possible solution?

Hello, can you send us the logs from your AMD system?

#3

Thanks, one of the songs with a video background is titled ‘Home neko sensation’.

There are several log files, the log.txt file is too big to paste.

:eyes: EDIT :eyes: I managed to upload the log file here https://www.dropbox.com/s/k9iyxte472njgej/log.txt?dl=0

Just wondering if the log files helped?

#6

Sorry for the delay. I’ve forwarded the logs to the dev team but they’ve been busier than usual lately and also needed some days off due to personal circumstances. We’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you, no rush, I appreciate the help :blush: :+1:
