DLSS 5 Autopilot v1.4.0
Video and YouTube through DLSS 5
A new card on the first page sets up a portable video player (MPC-HC) in a
folder of your choice and feeds DLSS 5 into it, the same way it does for a
game. Play any file, or File > Open URL with a YouTube link: yt-dlp sits
next to the player, so the stream plays live and nothing is downloaded.
F6 switches neural rendering on and off while it plays; the tool has a
button for it too. Tested at 60 fps with the feed costing about 5% of the
frame. There is no depth buffer in a video and the feed does not need one.
Paste a link into the link box and press play; a link on the
clipboard is picked up by itself. download, then play saves it first
(up to 1440p, or 4K when ticked; the first download fetches ffmpeg once,
170 MB, because YouTube only serves video and audio apart).
Command line: dlss5-autopilot.exe --video ["D:\DLSS5 Player"].
Profiles
Save the settings you liked as a named profile and pick it on any other
game. Quality / Balanced / Performance are built in.
What will happen?
A button on the install page lists what INSTALL would write, back up,
clean up and whether anything goes outside the game folder - without
downloading or writing a thing.
Before / after
A side-by-side viewer for the last two ReShade screenshots (toggle with
F6, shoot, toggle, shoot), with a PNG export.
Emulators switch themselves to Direct3D
DuckStation, PCSX2, Dolphin, PPSSPP and Xenia get their render backend set
to D3D11/D3D12 by the install (the config is backed up and restored on
uninstall). Emulators with no DXGI backend say so instead.
Xbox / Game Pass
Games under C:\XboxGames that Windows keeps unreadable are listed with
the fix (Xbox app > Manage > Files > Enable mods) instead of failing on
every scan.
Feeder version list
The pre-release tick box became a list: stable, newest pre-release, or any
exact release when the newest one breaks a game.
The diagnosis reads the folder, not just the logs
"Not run yet, or ReShade never loaded" used to be the answer to everything.
It now says which it is: ReShade's DLL gone (antivirus), an add-on
quarantined, the game not started since the install, or a log older than
the install. Shader failures that the feed does not use are no longer
reported as failures, and a flat depth buffer is explained instead of
implied.
Old d3dcompiler_47.dll no longer fakes a working install
Some games (and MPC-HC) ship a d3dcompiler_47.dll too old for the neural
pass. The feed kept reporting frames while neural rendering silently did
nothing. The installer now moves that file aside (.dlss5-off), Windows
uses its own, and uninstall puts it back. The diagnosis names it when it
sees one in an existing install.
Bug reports carry what matters
Report a bug now includes which files are in the folder, the tails of
ReShade.log and dlss5-feed.log, and the diagnosis - not just the tool's
own scan log.
