To address Bug 1618370 , we disable wr native compositor when DirectComposition does not support hardware stretching. It might be mitigated in future.

[Rares Doghi, Desktop QA]

Shouldnt Intel UHD 630 be supported by Direct Compositor ? is there a list with supported Intel GPU's ?

Comment 3

[Sotaro Ikeda [:sotaro]]

It is checked by using IDXGIOutput6::CheckHardwareComposition().

Intel HD 630 and Intel HD 620 GPU's are also affected by this issue.

Comment 5

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

We do get DirectComposition on Kats' Intel HD Graphics 630 with driver 25.20.100.6373 on Win10 1909

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

Also works with Bert's HD Graphics 630 on 26.20.100.7262 combined with a NVidia GTX 1050 Ti on Win10 1809

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

But not on agashlin's HD Graphics 630 combined with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 on 23.20.16.4973 and Win10 1909

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

It also works on my HD Graphics 530 on Win 10 1809 on 26.20.100.7263

WebRender native compositor works on Win10 1909 with Intel UHD Graphics 630(26.20.100.7262). 2nd GPU is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q Design(26.21.14.3123).

We have a Desktop PC with Windows 10 1903 with an updated INTEL HD 630 GPU driver to 26.20.100.7263 and it Works in Nightly but in BETA we get the WEBRENDER_COMPOSITOR: blacklisted by runtime: Blacklisted

We also have the following setup:
Dell G3 Laptop with Windows 10 1909, Intel UHD 630 GPU driver v.27.20.100.7988 and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 26.21.14.4219
Nightly - COMPOSITING = WEBRENDER
- WEBRENDER_COMPOSITOR: unavailable by runtime: No hardware stretching support
Beta 75.0b8 - Compositing = Direct 3D 11
- WEBRENDER_QUALIFIED = denied by env: Not on allowlist
- WEBRENDER_COMPOSITOR = unavailable by runtime: No hardware stretching support

Please note that at first we had the Windows 10 1903 with INTEL UHD GPU driver 26.20.100.7262 and we still got the same results, after Windows 10 update to 1909 the driver version changed as well to 27.20.100.7988

I will attach the About:support information from both devices.

I'm updating the severity of this issue since it blocks our Pre-Release testing.

Comment 19

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

Let's wait for the gray line fix before worrying about this again.
