Freesync Duplicating Frame 3 Times Every 2/3 Second
Posted: 02 Dec 2020, 19:03
When playing Rocket League with freesync there is a set of 3 identical frames every 165 frames or so. This causes the game to have a consistent stutter or frame hang every 2/3 seconds or so.
The monitor is an Odyssey G7 at 240hz. The firmware is version 1009.3 and VRR Control is on. The issue is persistent between monitors.
I recorded at 240fps on my phone showcasing the issue. I used Adobe Premiere to track which frames were causing problems, and it occurs at the following moments in the video (I'd love to attach the video but am unsure how):
[Second:Frame]
5:23, 5:24 & 5:25
10:11, 10:12, & 10:13
15:24, 15:25, & 15:26
21:01, 21:02, & 21:03
26:24, 26:25, & 26:26
This issue is causing an undesirable experience and I believe the cause is Freesync. I would love a technical explanation and if a work around is available I'm willing to try it.
I have tried disconnecting my other displays, swapping from fullscreen to borderless, disabling freesync (which leads to a teary, unplayable mess) and disabling VRR on the monitor. I'm also running the latest Radeon drivers on my Vega 64.
