VSR (NVIDIA RTX SuperRes) breaks when switching tab in same window as video
-
I Just tested again and on Vivaldi 6.6 stable I still have this Problem. With the new Auto Option for Super Res and the sdr to HDR convert functions it feels even more Like a dealbreaker that functionality breaks on switching actice tab
-
Here is a screen of the english UI:
Oh yeah and I have the same problem. Change the active task and it gets deactivated, restart the browser and HDR RTX gets active again.

Is the bug VB-103547 still open?

Please ask in this thread, specifically for bug report inquiries. Thank you.

Hi, you can add details in reply of the confirmation mail, the text is automatically added to the bug report.
We have another report about loosing HDR support if you change tabs.
The last comment of a developer to your report was 29/Jan/24.
I don`t have a RTX card anymore so I cant test and confirm this, you have to wait.Cheers, mib

It is still a problem with Vivaldi 6.6.3291.3 (Official Build) (64-bit) that's based on Chromium 122.0.6261.99

Hi, I have updated the report, this is all I can do.Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin thanks. I appreciate that

Same issue still persisting. Was going to start a topic on this but found this one instead. I like vivaldi but its annoying to have to duplicate an existing tab cos i wanted to click on a different tab for a moment. Chrome has zero issues.

@Nobody2 for me i found workaround, if open video in floating mode (picure-in-picture), and resize to big (or fullscreen), vsr activates and works while switching between tabs
-
@gooddha Are you referring to mini-player? Doesn't do anything for me. I tried the picture-in-picture extension as well.

It needs to resize floating window to big size, to activate vsr.
I found another workaround, if i open tab with video in separate window without any other tabs, i can switch tabs in main window without affecting VSR on that video-tab in separate window.

I have the same problem, but i was able to resolve it by disabling the "Use Animation" option under Appearance.

Thank you very much for finding this out, now we finally know why Vivaldi is behaving so strange. I have now also disabled the Animation and the issue seems to be gone. I do not even know what the "Use Animation" thing even does.... Maybe the Vivaldi Team can find the issue with your information. For now i will keep the Animations disabled then
-
@JanK
Thank you! How did you find that out?I confirm, disabling animation fixes the issue.
-
This needs to be fixed fast. I mean even Firefox now supports NVIDIA RTX SuperRes/HDR
-
I add the information about "fixing" the issue with disabling Use Animation in the Vivaldi settings to the bug report.
Cheers, mib

@JanK
Dude thank you so much -
Can confirm unticking "Use Animation" fixes VSR breaking when switching to another tab and then back to the video tab.
Also, since the other thread https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/84343/vsr-enable-nvidia-rtx-superres is closed, I wanted to add an odd piece of information here in regards to VSR incase it helps someone else with a similar setup.
For me, VSR under Vivaldi just works on my desktop (single dGPU: 3060 Ti), but never my laptop (iGPU: AMD Radeon Graphics + dGPU: RTX 3050 Ti).
After some digging, the only noticeable difference was in [chrome|edge|vivaldi]://gpu
My laptop's Vivaldi has the following extra switch whereas desktop did not.
Driver Bug Workarounds [Vivaldi: Laptop]
- disable_direct_composition_sw_video_overlays
Strange enough, Edge also has this workaround applied, but VSR works. I suspect it's to do with their custom enable_ms_video_super_resolution_light_weight_ml_model function.
Driver Bug Workarounds [Edge: Laptop]
- disable_direct_composition_sw_video_overlays
- enable_ms_video_super_resolution_light_weight_ml_model
After I added following argument to Vivaldi's launch option, VSR became functional on my laptop.

--disable-gpu-driver-bug-workaroundsForgot to include one additional step I had to do in conjunction.
In Vivaldi, goto
chrome://settings/system
and switch on
Use graphics acceleration when availableFor my laptop, this was switched off prior to finding the aforementioned fix.
