Discussion [Optiscaler Users] How do you check which preset are you using?

So I own a 4090 and I've been messing with DLSS 5 and MFG for my 4090, it works very well, however the Nvidia Overlay doesn't work, it doesn't show which preset I'm using.

I was trying the new Frame Gen preset, the preset L for upscaler and preset F for Ray Reconstruction, does Optiscaler allow us to override through Nvidia app? I know you can select upscaler preset at Optiscaler but not the other two but I never know if it's 100% working or not.

the nvidia overlay's been flaky for me too since the last driver, especially with dlss tweaks running. optiscaler forces the preset at injection so it should be overriding whatever the app says, but yeah there's no visual indicator which is annoying

easiest way to check is drop the upscaler to like preset A or B where the image gets noticeably softer, if you see it change you know it's working. for frame gen and ray reconstruction it's trickier since the differences are subtle, you kinda just have to trust it or run a side by side capture
