Nvidia GT240 DDR5
MoBo: Gigabyte EP35-DS4

HD: 4TB
HP w2408h


Drivers Version for the Nvidia :
258.96_desktop_win7_winvista_64bit_english_whql

Splashlite Version :
1.4.3

When I played the videos everything is cool and Ok like this:


BUT when I play in FULL screen it looks like this:


I dont know what it could be... :!:

I have re-installed the whole SO from zero and updated ALL the drivers and software related
but I can not figure out what is wrong; I dont have other version of Slpashlite to verify if its
the version or what.

Can You Help Me Please ?

Hi Meteorix,

please try some other configurations:
- disable/enable HW acceleration
- disable/enable force video overlay
- try running files with other codecs if possible (mpeg2, vc-1 or divx)
- try different resolutions

those test wil help to determine source of the problem, because now we can not reproduce the issue and we never seen anything like that.

regards,

Hello

Yes I tried with this:
-disable/enable HW acceleration

And now the FULL screen is OK, but well... since the election for
this player was the HW acceleration now it is a kind of sad becouse
I can not use it the way it mean to be played LOL

Well I dont know if it is the player or the driver/hardware in the GT240
but with the acceleration HW disabled works fine.

Your feedback is very helpful, now I know it is related to HW acc. and I gues your GPU does not produce NV12 output, but maybe somehow I420, YV16???
please test one more scenario:
enable "HW acc." and enable "force video overlay". Is the result the same?

regards,

Yes When I enable:
-Force video overlay

I can play at full screen too and with HW acceleration BUT
all the aeroglass in the Windows 7 turns white I mean the
glass effect turns off whe I play videos.

-If I disable HW acceleration I can watch movies at FULL screen with no problems at all.

-If I enable HW acceleration and enable Force video overlay I can watch movies at FULL
screen too but the glass effect in Windows 7 turns off while playing videos.

Either way it seems that the best option for me is just to turn off the HW acceleration
since my PC is capable to play videos at FULL HD 1080 without any effort.

If is there any other test You would like Me to do just tell Me I am glad to help you.

When video overlay is enabled always turn off aero glass. This is problem with windows, not player. I don't know why aero glass turn off but microsoft do this feature. :(
