Yes, notebook BIOSes indeed contain vBIOS part inside as well as other firmwares so apparently the older vBIOS contained some bugs or lacked compatibility dependencies with newer drivers/features.

The problem is solved. I installed the previous driver which show the same behavior. I deleted the graphics driver and reinstalled the new one. This also did not work. But after a Bios update the problem is gone.

Safe mode -> DDU -> Install again -> Test

It's a long time ago that i visited the forum. I use a Laptop with a AMD Ryzen™ 5 PRO 3500U. After the update to the new AMD graphics driver (20.5.1), the APU ( Vega 8 graphics) seems to have problems with the GPU acceleration in SVP. It just gives a very distorted image. As I was still using SVP 3.1.7 I thougth it may be that after all this time it's normal that it does not work anymore. So I tested the SVP 4 demo version but it also have the same problem.
