Razer Kiyo Pro (micro stutter) - tests show it's only running at 30fps after Firmware update | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Hi there,



I purchased a Razer Kiyo Pro and it was running fine, smooth as butter until I recently upgraded the firmware to 1.05 as instructed to by Razer Synapse.



After the firmware update the camera now has a frequent microstutter and when testing on https://webcamtests.com/fps the site is stating that it is only running at 30 FPS



I have disabled HDR and tested in quite a few different software platforms (OBS, Discord, Synapse, Gamecaster, Xsplit, Windows 10 camera app) and they all show the same symptons when doing the circular head movement test, micro stuttering on movement.



I'm running a

AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Stock

RTX 3070

32gb DDR4 3600mhz

Samsung EVO Pro 240gb NVME drive



Tested in both use 3.0 and 2.0 USB ports, in both back and front slots.

Changing from PCIE Auto to Gen .3 and also Gen.4

Removing Razer Kiyo Pro, reinstalling using synapse

Reinstalling and letting windows update the driver

Testing the camera on my Streaming PC and has same symptons



Only thing I can think of is the firmware whilst addressing AF issues has either forced the camera into 30FPS and/or has caused some issue that is causing the microstutter.



Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated before I decide to RMA the camera.
