Hi,

I have the same problem as Camelalon with ATI Catalyst 9.x drivers:
Camfrog seems to have problem with these drivers, maybe because they include DxVA 2.0 technology, but not sure about it.
What I can say is that this behaviour doesn’t occur with previous drivers (8.x).

When multiple videos are open in a room, after a few minutes (can 5 to 30 minutes), some of the videos begin to freeze.
When you try to close non frozen videos, the entire desktop freezes for a few seconds (which can be much longer, actually depending on the time the videos have been opened).

After several minutes spent in a room with multiple videos open, if you leave the room, same behaviour: the entire desktop gets frozen for a few seconds (can be more than one minute) giving the impression that the entire PC is hanged.

Thanks for solving that issue quickly.

It looks like a nice new version – what a pity there is no support for Linux, and it won’t run on Wine.

I have just found a bug that results in multimedia connections being terminated in a chatroom.
They can be invoked by changed date back one month.
Is this a central server side problem that is being resolved – as camfrog has been signing me in and out quite a few times today, or is it a client issue, and will we be expecting an update to the client and/or server software?
Please, i hope you resolve this issue soon.
Doug

iv been playing camfrog for several months and i really enjoyed and met new friends internationally. But not until this week that i cannot view nor broadcast my camera anymore when i join international rooms like CF ASIA and CF WORLD rooms. everytime i click on to open my friend’s camera, it always says this room requires a pro code/users in order to open a video. Next is i cannot go outside my zone which (Philippine Zone). The sad part of it is i have plenty of so called “residential chatrooms” which i spend most of my times with my CF friends but they are all in different zones…. now i cannot properly interact with them… i know that this is just business but why only put this kind of discriminate filters to non pro users from the Philippines? some of my Thai friends told me that they have been experiencing this kind of treatment but not to the extent that they cant broadcast their cameras….

I think you have to fix the video problems caused by ATI Catalyst 9.X series drivers.
I don’t know anyone reported this, googled a lot and found no solution on internet.
On Catalyst 9.3 series drivers DXVA v.2.0 is enabled and I think camfrog videos have problem with it.
When I open multible video’s on camfrog, after a while, the whole desktop freezes. There’s nothing you can do but to reset the computer.
This is a huge problem for me because I have Radeon HD 4870, I’m a game fan And Catalyst 9 series drivers are vital for some game’s performances.
But I can’t use camfrog video chat client with those drivers at all!
