New Relive drivers are out with quite a few bug fixes. Unfortunately it appears they've also added some new ones!! I launched the installation package and chose clean install. It said it would uninstall the driver and restart which it duly did. Restarted with a nice 640x480 screen and then it asked me if I wanted to continue uninstalling the driver. I clicked yes and then.. nothing. It didn't install the new driver at all wtf.

Finally I went to the installation folder and ran the setup file and it installed correctly and restarted. As usual it borked all my icons again so I had to spend time rearranging them. Why oh why does it keep doing this. Did a couple of quick demos to try out freesync and at least that seems to be working OK. Looks like they fixed the hanging issue on installation to the point that it doesn't bother installing the new driver on a clean install. Back to the drawing board guys I guess.
 
Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 16.12.2 Highlights
Fixed Issues
    • AMD FreeSync™ technology may experience performance issues with Borderless Fullscreen application support when a secondary display is attached and has dynamic content running such as video playback in a web browser or if other applications or game launchers are running on the primary screen in the background. A workaround if this issue is experienced is to minimize all other running applications that are on the primary desktop display or on non-primary extended displays.
    • Radeon ReLive may fail to install during installation on some system configurations.
    • Battlefield™1 may experience flashing or corruption when running in Multi GPU with Radeon RX 400 series.
    • Instant Replay fails to enable itself after it has been turned off due to content protection.
    • Radeon Settings may not load on system boot for some system configurations.
    • Fixed some errors in translations for Radeon Settings and Radeon ReLive.
    • Audio recorded by Radeon ReLive may sometimes exhibit slow motion when played back.
    • Radeon ReLive may experience recording issues or issues toggling the Overlay/Toolbar when Frame Rate Target Control is enabled. Users are suggested to disable Frame Rate Target Control when using Radeon ReLive.

    • In AMD Multi GPU configurations the secondary graphics product will exit the low power state when Radeon ReLive is enabled.

    • Chromium may fail to utilize hybrid decode for VP9 content.

Known Issues

    • Counter-Strike™: Global Offensive and World of Warcraft™ may experience flickering or performance issues the first time the game is launched on a system boot with AMD FreeSync™ technology enabled. Workarounds include exiting and restarting the application or task switching (alt+tab) in and out of the game to fix the issue.
    • AMD Multi GPU configurations may experience a system hang or reboot during install when using tiled MST 4K or 5K displays.
    • Titanfall™2 may experience black square corruption in game menus or during game play on some Graphics Core Next products.

Known Issues for Radeon ReLive

I used clean install option, reboot, installed a new driver. Although, the desktop icons were arranged. But that is not really problem. The new driver was installed just fine. I had no idea why you had a problem with the new driver. Sorry.

Can anyone confirm this is fixed? It was very nasty surprise and mad scramble of troubleshooting until I stumbled on a reddit post.

So should I take this icon messing as a personal issue??:lol:??? Seriously I have two rows of icons and after it restarts they're all bunched up in the left hand corner. Happens every time.

last 3 drivers have been fine on the icons and I have about 70 icons on my desktop
but before that yes every time top left hand corner and shuffled :lol:

but I don't do clean installs 99% of the time just over the top
I only do clean installs if over the top fails
 
Installed over the top. No messed up icons.

BUT, I have noticed that long ping time issue and even reported it to my ISP for troubleshooting. Nice find on that issue!
 
The drivers are not to blame for the icons being re arranged (specially since they have absolutely zero control over icon placement). That is all windows, for some reason, when you change drivers windows resets the icons for some users.
 
I went back to 16.2.1. Had too many issues in games with ReLive enabled (black lines / flickering / more frequent extreme framedrops) That along with VLC refusing to be always on top (accelerated video).

You could also just have disabled Relive...
 
With 16.12.1 I was seeing some screen flashes on my HDTV, which looked like HDMI handshakes, when using an idle PC after a while.

I haven't noticed that with 16.12.2. No black screen issues either after activating idle PC over HDMI, which I used to see pre 16.12.1 drivers.

I am using an RX-470 8GB.
 
Didnt see this sticky, but they updated the 16.12.2 drivers again yesterday....1/9/17

WHQL cert now I guess.
