EGL Filters tab
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
The EGL Filters tab is a GUI for enabling, configuring and ordering
|
||||
the post-processing filter stack. Each filter can be expanded to open
|
||||
its settings. Filters can also be re-ordered by dragging them up or down.
|
||||
Filters application is cumulative, and order is important (e.g. applying CAS
|
||||
before FSR might have different results than the reverse). Users are
|
||||
encouraged to experiment with the order and parameters to achieve optimal
|
||||
results. The currently available filters include:
|
||||
The EGL Filters tab contains options for toggling, configuring, and ordering
|
||||
post-processing filters. Each filter can be expanded to open its settings.
|
||||
Filters can also be re-ordered by dragging them up or down. Filters are applied
|
||||
from top to bottom, keep this in mind when ordering them. (applying CAS before
|
||||
FSR might have different results than the reverse). Users are encouraged to
|
||||
experiment with the order and parameters to achieve optimal results. The
|
||||
currently available filters include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Downscaler: Filter for downscaling resolution. Can be used to undo the
|
||||
poor upscaling that some games implement such that it can then
|
||||
be better upscaled using FSR (see below). The filter has a pixel-size setting
|
||||
that is used to set the effective downscaling ratio and can be set to use
|
||||
different downscaling algorithms.
|
||||
- AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR): Filter implementing a rendering
|
||||
technique for upscaling resolution. FSR works by accepting the original
|
||||
frames (on the guest) at lower resolution, then applying a spatial upscaling
|
||||
algorithm in the client to make the final result look as though it is
|
||||
rendered in high-resolution. The FSR filter interface allows for fine
|
||||
tuning the sharpness factor of the algorithm and shows the equivalent
|
||||
quality mode based on the ratio between the original frame resolution
|
||||
and the client resolution.
|
||||
- AMD FidelityFX Contrast Adaptive Sharpening (CAS): Filter that
|
||||
increases visual quality by applying a sharpening algorithm to the
|
||||
frame. CAS can sometimes restore detail lost in a typical upscaling
|
||||
application. The CAS filter interface has an adjustable sharpness
|
||||
control.
|
||||
- Downscaler: Filter for downscaling the host resolution. Can be used to undo
|
||||
poor upscaling on the VM to better utilize AMD FSR (see below). The filter
|
||||
has a pixel-size setting that is used to set the effective downscaling ratio,
|
||||
and a configurable interpolation algorithm.
|
||||
|
||||
The filter stack settings and order can be saved to presets so that it
|
||||
can be conveniently recalled at a later time. As filter settings are
|
||||
usually application specific, multiple presets can be defined for each
|
||||
case scenario. To save a preset, click on "Save preset as..." and enter
|
||||
a preset name. Presets are recalled by selecting them in the "Preset name"
|
||||
pull down. Presets are persistent and are stored on disk at
|
||||
- AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR): A spatial upcaling filter that works
|
||||
on low resolution frames from the guest VM and intelligently upscales to a
|
||||
higher resolution. The filter sharpness is tunable, and displays the
|
||||
equivalent AMD quality mode based on the resolution difference.
|
||||
|
||||
- AMD FidelityFX Contrast Adaptive Sharpening (CAS): Filter that
|
||||
increases visual quality by applying a sharpening algorithm to the
|
||||
video. CAS can sometimes restore detail lost in a typical upscaling
|
||||
application. Has adjustable sharpness setting.
|
||||
|
||||
The filter settings and order can be saved to presets so that it can be restored
|
||||
at a later time. As filter settings are usually application specific, multiple

presets can be defined for each case scenario. To save a preset, click on "Save
|

preset as..." and enter a preset name. Presets are loaded by selecting them in
