Tested today 4539 driver and memory leak is NOT fix:

I wonder if Intel knows what it means memory leak...  :(

Try 21.20.16.4534, it comes with a newer Media version than the 20.19.15.4539.

 21.20.16.4534 download link?

[MSchm21]

For a 64 bit system? Here http://download.windowsupdate.com/c/msdownload/update/driver/drvs/2016/10/20941655_8a1a7b4e909b995649b2671164b3e8654ef0a319.cab

Install it through device manager via "disc install"

21.20.16.4534 Fixes memory leak

Thanks a lot

I confirm that 21.20.16.4534 fixes the leak. But...

..we need to be able to run our app also if the MSDK installed has the leak, we can do that - we have a fallback - but we need to detect the faulty driver.

I see a user above told about 20.19.15.4539, at the beginning someone is talking about a 4530, I know that the 21.20.16.4505 is leaking too. Instead the 4463 is good, not sure about the 4501 cited in the first message...any suggestion on how to detect the leak at startup? something like a sample code? some parameter to check in the MSDK? maybe a subversion number? the availability of a function introduced (or removed)?

Thank you,

Stefano
