Hi @rbtmmon ,

Thank you for providing information about the ROG Azoth keyboard lighting issue. To better assist you we would like to gather some more information:

  1. Firmware update: Did the random flickering issue start after a recent firmware update for your keyboard?
  2. Software reinstallation: Have you tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling the Armoury Crate software using the official uninstaller?
  3. Firmware and software versions: To help us analyze the issue, please provide the current firmware version of your keyboard and the installed version of Armoury Crate.
  4. Aura Sync impact: Does the flickering issue only occur when the Aura Sync lighting synchronization feature is enabled? If you turn off the lighting synchronization, does the keyboard lighting display normally?
  5. Video recording: To visually understand the issue, we recommend recording a video showing the keyboard's random flickering after setting up Aura Sync.
  6. Armoury Crate log: If the issue persists after reinstalling Armoury Crate, please provide us with the Armoury Crate system log. This will help us identify the cause of the problem.

The logs contain detailed information about the software's operation and can help the team identify the problem.

#1 most usual cause for random flickering is a different program (windows dynamic lighting, signal/openRGB... ) trying to seize control.
