Have you tried using the USB 3.1 gen 2 ports in the rear? They are the red ones.

No, a while back you had recommended not to use them because of something unrelated, will try it then.

If you want to enable one of the USB 2 ports and disable one of the USB 3 ports, you can try the following:

uia_exclude=HS08HS01;HS10;HS11;HS14;SS07;SS08;SS09;SS10;USR1;USR2

This will enable HS09 and disable USB 2 functionality of the USB 3 port next to it (directly below the PS/2 port). However, USB 3 functionality should remain on that USB 3 port.

I'll test the 3.1 gen2 port for a while, (the audio stuttering only happens occasionally) if it doesn't help I'll try changing the uia_exclude as you suggested, thanks so much for helping out.

The USB 3.1 gen 2 ports should always work fine. We don't even have to worry about them when configuring USB because they are on a separate controller.

So I can now wake from sleep without crash but I now get random freezes after wake. I can sometimes go on quite long and then the screen freezes but cursor still moves. If I turn monitor off and then on it’s black and I have to reboot.

Are you testing with overclocks disabled (including multi-core enhancement) and XMP disabled?

I did a load optimized in bios pre-installing. But I will check again.

XMP, multi-core etc. all disabled.

@pastrychef DRM works with IGPU enabled from BIOS on SMBIOS 19,1 with these boot arguments;

shikigva=32
shiki-id=Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94

But no Netflix on Safari.

Apple TV+ and Purchase movies work without any problem.

Is Netflix working on Safari with your SMBIOS iMacPro1,1?

Are you streaming from the Apple TV app or are you downloading? Downloaded videos have always played. It's streaming that is the problem.

Netflix not working on Safari tells me that HDCP is still not working right.

With iMacPro1,1, Amazon Prime videos work fine in Safari (I don't have Netflix). Streaming videos also work fine in Apple TV app.

I can add that with iMacPro1,1 (with or without iGPU enabled) Netflix works on Safari and Prime.
