Low framerate wallpapers

[Dapal]

So since some tine recently my wallpaper engine has been acting up. Before it was running fine on both my monitors. I've made sure there is no recording softwear running at all. I'm running them of a 1080ti, one screen is a 1440p and the other a 1080p21:9. They worked fine about two weeks ago but started acting up all of the sudden. I notice that my gpu usage goes from ~60% to ~15% whenever they start lagging. If I'd need to profide any more information I'd happily do so.

Do even the stock wallpapers have issues and can you check your disk usage?

The GPU usage is relative to the current clock rate (which isn't taken into account in the task manager) so it's hard to say what it means.

Switching to the deepspace wallpaper made it so my main monitor is a stationary image and my second screen showing off normaly. My gpu usage (Using MSI afterburner this time, polling in at 100ms intervals, is stabalzing around 30% usage.) The wallpapers that I was running on both screens where this one: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=831242025 if it matters at all.

A stationary image? Could you maybe do this while that happens: http://steamcommunity.com/app/431960/discussions/2/1473095331509794520/

Also, which version of Windows do you have?

Well I think this is the reason: C:\Program Files (x86)\RivaTuner Statistics Server\RTSSHooks.dll

You have to configure RTSS to ignore the Wallpaper Engine's .exe files or it will cause freezing and crashes with its code.

But I've already done that? https://i.imgur.com/95DQZdk.png

Yeah that's what it should look like, but the script reports it to be loaded, it's at the very end of the first block of modules. Did you try restarting everything?

Currently I can't restart my pc since I'm hosting some stuff, but I've restarted both wallpaper engine (in 32 and 64x mode) without having RTTS running.
