AMD Radeon Vega Frontier Edition support for Encoder and Premier Pro

[vipeor]

Do you guys have support in Encoder and Premier Pro for the new AMD Radeon Vega Frontier Edition? If not, any plans? Any benchmarks maybe?

I'd like to get this card but need to know the consequences.

Rendering appears to work fine with the Vega Frontier Edition (I have the air cooled). But during display I am receiving a strong purple color shift (Vega FE Premiere CC display color off.jpg - Google Drive​ please note the horizontal and vertical flip is in the footage, not a side-effect). I've tested this on various 1080x60p formats and am still receiving the problem (though strangely not with <1080x60p). It wasn't an issue with my RX480. I did find if you hit CTRL-F12 on a PC, locate GF.DisableAcceleratedDisplay and set it to true then the color shift will go away. I've also tried installing updated codec packs. I've tested the other settings below but they don't remedy the situation like simply disabling GPU display does:

• ImporterMPEG.disable_MTC_hwdec
• INTEL.ImporterMPEG.UseDiskAlignedPPix
• GF.EnableMultipleGPUs
• GF.RedGPUDebater
• GPU.EnableGOPFormats
• DVA_syncWindowEnablement
• DS.ForceEnableVsync
• GF.DisableAcceatedDisplay
• DS.ForceCPUOnly
• DS.disable_WGL_Intel_cl_sharing
• DisableHighQualityAVCHDPlayback
• DisableGPUMediaNode

This should still render with the GPU when appropriate, but it means during scrubbing and the like the rendering will be entirely on the CPU. I would love to see a solution to this other than a disable hack.

I should also mention when I had the Vega FE as my secondary card, video would not playback at all on it. I ended up just removing the other card anyway, but considering there's literally a setting called EnableMultipleGPUs I don't understand why this wouldn't work.

Thank you for the reply! Very helpful. But at the same time I want to ask ADOBE:

Adobe, when are you going to support the latest AMD Radeon Vega Frontier?

So I am having this same issue and I did your fix, but it only fixes the main monitor, the video in my playback monitor is still screwed up. Any ideas?

tx man, fixed for the moment. Still waiting for proper drivers...

I recently updated my drivers (17.Q4.1) and found the problem went away. I'm running Premiere 11.1.2 build 22.

Yep, I just did the latest update and it seemed to fix a lot of my problems. I have done a lot with it yet,  but when I get a chance to put the card through its paces, I will update this post.
