  1. So... I think I've found something interesting and kinda "fix". Had problems with Goodhertz plug-ins, host freezes instantly when trying to playback the project with plug-in window opened. So, anyway, was experimenting with graphics card drivers - nothing. But, at some point my AMD Control Panel was opened with Cakewalk and Goodhertz Lossy plug-in at background. So, at the AMD panel I noticed something weird - 90% GPU usage and 60C+ temperature lol. So, here's the problem - when this plug-in (and some others) are inserted in project and their window is opened, they use a lot of GPU for some reason. And when I hit play, it just can't handle it. Ok, the "fix". I've been using this app called Dxtory (v2) for games video recording and taking screenshots. It has some really deep compatibility settings and frame rate limiter. I was using it for old games, in which frame rate could go up very high (like 300-600fps) and something like Doom 2 could get GPU up to 65C. So, my thought was "if it can limit frame rate of video games, maybe it can do this thing with plug-in window". And it did. First I tried 30fps. And it worked. GPU load dropped to 30-40% and I was, finally, able to play the project with all those "broken" plug-ins. Then after some time GPU load dropped to 0% and occasionally was getting up to 25%. Also tried other values, up to 59fps. Still worked. I don't know why and how exactly. Just find a way to limit frame rate of openGL apps, with Dxtory or something else.
