Buzzing Sound Caused by Animated Background Image Transitions #3742

Closed kasonmane closed 1 month ago

kasonmane commented 1 month ago

Bug Description

With the option "Animate background image transitions" turned on, a buzzing sound (most likely coil whine) can be heard coming from the computer when switching from one game to another in the library. After disabling this option, the noise goes away. Corroboration of this report can be found in the following Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/playnite/comments/191bbac/extremely_weird_buzzing_sound_from_pc_only_when/ I'm unsure if this problem is hardware specific. I'm using a 6750XT, two others in the thread stated they also experienced this same problem on their computers with a 6700XT and 6950XT, so it may be an issue exclusive to AMD GPUs. Apologies if this bug has already been reported.

We have virtually no control over how GPU is utilized by UI library we use. Nothing we can do about it.
