Extreme thrashing, or failure to completely rez, of scripted letter/number textures on game boards, Shoutcast boards, and similar items

This problem started cropping up after the introduction of PBR. We have had many reports of this in Firestorm support, and it does repro on the official SL viewer.
The problem generally involves letter/number displays that are scripted to change. Other parts of the object are not affected.
Typically the scripted item will make its texture change, and the texture will rez, blur, rez, over and over, or simply remain in an unreadable, blurry state.
Right clicking the item or putting it into edit mode will often cause the textures to completely rez. Once the item is deselected, it blurs again.

I wanted to add this:
This supposed to be fixed https://github.com/secondlife/viewer/issues/888 and https://github.com/secondlife/viewer/pull/1030/commits/124879346c5df410ce631ab21b104fd8177e7fc1
The canny issue was closed back in August.
Since then, I don't see that problem at all anymore, even with gadgets that display scrolling messages, it seems to render perfectly... however, when using old viewers, all of them (no PBR), will or may exhibit this issue in one way or another.
Second Life Release 7.1.11.11864501455 (64bit) (No issues since a few builds ago... ), one idea... I always clear cache after switching between viewer versions specially the old versions without PBR, maybe be worth to try using the latest ExtraFPS or even the FS 7.1.11 which also supposed to already have this code.

I can confirm I have this problem with an Event Board, constantly goes blury, sometimes rezzes after right clicking and edit but never stays as it should, will go blurry again.

Hi Anastasia,
Does this bug reproduce on the latest ExtraFPS viewer, available at https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer.html ?
Some texture loading issues have been addressed.

Hi, Dan,
That seems to have partially fixed the problem.
The textures still don't load at first, but once I right click or edit the object, the textures rez, and then they stay rezzed as long as the viewer is in focus.
When I tab away from the viewer and back, the textures are unrezzed again, and I have to right-click or edit the item again.
We will try to get some users to test this fix too.
