Hey guys,


I just installed some Games which require DirectDraw / Direct3D to run. When I start them out of MediaPortal they just work fine. If I turn on "MyTV" and then switch back to the Games they don't run properly anymore. Their processes are running when I check via TaskManager but their window just won't become visible.


I have ruled out a codec problem because the problem occurs regardless of using ffdshow / MPV / Dscaler.

Interesting, however, is that the Games still run when I play a video file before so MyTV must do something different in playback than the "normal" video playing process.


This error only occurs when MediaPortal is in fullscreen mode. If I disable "DirectX exclusive mode" the error also does not exist (but video playback looks horrible due to tearing when I do this).



I am attaching a log file which contains the following actions (debug log level):


start Mediaportal -> run a game (gg.exe) -> switch to MyTV and start watching TV -> turn off TV and try to run the game once more (gg.exe)



I would appreciate any help :D
