Hi，Could you upload a IORegistryExplorer screenshot image with searching keyword “display”？

Rename all “kamarang” to “Iriri” and test it again. If hardware encoding still unsupported, remove the SSDT file and use WhateverGreen.

@shathenine

Hardware encoding is supported in both scenarios but no graphics name with your SSDT.

If I change name in your SSDT from your original "Radeon Pro Vega 56" to the name WhateverGreen is using "AMD Radeon Vega 56" name instead of N/A is showing up correct.





Radeon Pro Vega 56 is the official iMac Pro1.1 name so why is WhateverGreen reporting the generic name?
Any ideas?

The correct Name is Radeon RX Vega 56 in 10.13.4。In 10.13.3 and older system version，it named Radeon HD Vega 10 XT Prototype.

The metal support level is indeed cosmetic in the system info (Metal: Supported / GPUFamily1_v3). I have written a little Swift console app that checks the capabilities.

Binary:

You guys are legends! I'm so nearly there sleep/wake issue and Framebuffer injection.. But it still ain't working!!

Would be really helpful if you could take a look at my IOReg/SSDT/config? I got feeling my SSDT is not implementing.

Hello, shathenine.

I have been testing SSDT-Vega56-FBName-Iriri.aml for the last two days.

• SSDT-Vega56-FBName-Iriri.aml seems to work fine.
• If you use it, RadeonDeInit and WhateverGreen.kext are not necessary.
• Using this SSDT, the video card information appears in System Information's PCI section.
• Sleep/wake works fine.
• Using this SSDT with iMacPro1,1 system definition, FCPX stabilization works.
• Using this SSDT with iMac18,3 system definition, FCPX stabilization froze the whole system.
• Nightshift works.

Thanks for your work!!

I am wondering if this could fix my issue of having the video card driver crash after using the system for different intervals. However, it seems a bit beyond me. Any help would be appreciated.

with this ssdt edits, would it be possible to run Display port 4k screen and HDMI HD screen without whatevergreen or vegafixup kexts?

I have problem with these kexts FCPX export to h264 breaks, but i need to run both of my screens for work...
