PS5 and PS5 Pro Have VRR Stuttering Problems (Update Per Sony PR to DF: "the latest PlayStation firmware resolves the VRR hiccup issue")

Should we put the fix in our patch notes? Nah, let's let DF know so they can tweet about it.

Bizarre communication sometimes.

The percentage of owners that even knew this was an issue is probably less than .1 percent of total PS5 owners. No need to pull out the megaphone and cause hysteria since it's such a small niche crowd you're addressing.

The people that know about it are probably the same people who actually bother to read the patch notes.
 
Cool, now let's all bitch enough that they put system wide 120hz and LFC support too. That's still missing.

I think they did it like this to avoid making the problem a problem.

Lots of people probably didn't even know it existed. Because, obviously, on their console everything was running fine.
 
You're not though.

I'd say they had "decent" turn around time on fixing this given the previous firmware update that released in May was probably feature locked before this DF video came out.

I will say though given how long it took them to fix this, I think we probably have to give up hope that they're going to implement AMD Freesync.

Isn't Freesync already implemented as part of the HDMI standard?
 
People have VRR TVs with readings, they would've noticed. People did notice after Pro launched.
No offence but people aren't exactly trustworthy. They lean to notice such stuff when over scrutinize. Not saying it's absolutely out of the question.

It isn't.

That's why I'm saying probably is like this from launch. I often noticed bizzarre behavior in VRR on ps5, especially without LFC. Nothing major but still.

Pro launch.

I played Hogwarts Legacy on PS5 Pro. It was my first PS5 Pro game. This was definitely not an issue when I played it at launch (Pro).

I agree. I had no idea about it really. Though I could say I saw a few blips playing certain games. Anyway, glad it's resolved.

Well, you can't be right on this being an issue since launch. PS5 didn't have VRR back then. :messenger_beaming:
