AMD Releases Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 17.7.2: ReLive Edition Refined for Gamers and Developers

In keeping with the ReLive Edition namesake, 17.7.2 improves on a number of features with AMD’s in-house capture and streaming software. Right off the bat, ReLive now has double the max recording bitrate, offering 100 Mbps Variable Bitrate Recording (VBR) as opposed to 50 Mbps VBR. The previous 50Mbps limit was artificially limited for testing and quality purposes, and with 17.7.2, ReLive has been tested and validated to support up to 100Mbps VBR.
With a “Camera Opacity” option under the ReLive Overlay tab, AMD has also enabled transparency for the webcam image. Obviously, with high transparency, the audience can see a HUD that might be otherwise obscured.
ReLive also has three new notifications: instant replay save, overlay record timer, and network connectivity issues. In saving larger instant replays, ReLive will give a notification to reassure the user that their clip is being saved. For the record timer, a timer is displayed under the Record overlay icon while recording.
Meanwhile under the Global tab, ReLive now has more audio controls: customizable microphone volume control, audio volume boost, and microphone push-to-talk (keyboard and mouse) support.
17.7.2 ReLive also reduces the performance impact of recording in graphics cards with smaller frame buffers – in this case cards with 4GB or less of VRAM. While the improvement in FPS overhead is rather modest, this does show that AMD is paying attention to the performance impact of ReLive on weaker cards.

There is no "Enhanced Sync" setting in my R9 !Cryio - Thursday, July 27, 2017 - link
It's only for Polaris currently. It will be backported to GCN 1.2 and possibly GCN 1.1 later.Alexvrb - Thursday, July 27, 2017 - link
Wow that's nifty I actually wasn't expecting them to support E-Sync outside of Polaris.ET - Thursday, July 27, 2017 - link
It's nice that AMD has a feedback option, but meanwhile the AMD Issue Reporting Form doesn't work, and I haven't been able to report bugs. (In this case, bad interlaced video playback.)StevoLincolnite - Thursday, July 27, 2017 - link
I half expected a couple of benchmarks somewhere or something. Hah.Oh well. Downloading away. I miss the old GUI though, it was better suited to the PC, interested to see if I notice anything on my RX 580... AMD really needs some decent GPU's and stop playing around in the mid-range though. Vega can't come fast enough.

Hopefully with this release Deus Ex: Mankind Divided will lose some of the lag it experiences when ran too long.Alexvrb - Thursday, July 27, 2017 - link
That sounds like either a Deus Ex issue or a "help my system is heatsoaked" issue.novingate - Sunday, July 30, 2017 - link

https://bluewafflesdisease.info/ I read the title too fast, for a second I assumed they had tweaked the radeon software interface. I miss the old interface. The one that had a hierarchy on the left and the settings on the right. It was simple, intuitive and easy to use. Even after few years I am
