MyMusic - Flickering coverart SVN 07-02-27-12:40 (1 Viewer)

[northern]

Hi, may have found a bug.
During myMusic, when playing a song displaying coverart, a flickering will
start in the upper left corner. the size of the flickeriing is the same as the coverart displayed further down. This appears in both windowed and fullscreen mode.

Before the svn-upgrade today i was running SVN 07-02-03. No flickering there.
Edit: also, random freezez if weatheroverlay is running.


Regards
Northern

I'm also having this problem with the Album Art overlay, in my case, the album art is initializing slightly to the right and below where it should appear and then flickers into the correct spot but remains in the down-right area of where it should be.

It looks to me as though it may have something to do with the UI Calibration

Next time i'm playing music, i'll take a screenshot and post it....

Also the weather overlay is appearing 1/2 off the screen - it appears that it is not affected by the UI Calibration as well.....

Same problem here. It's also if the visualization is on the below left corner. There are flickering in the upper part of the visualization.

btw: I won't to disable the weather overlay. Its not so nice for me.

Yep must be somthong with the UI calib..I get flickering covert and sometimes the coverart is overlayed above the leftsidemenus.....

Edit: seems to weather overlayrelated. I have same problems with freezing which are described here
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/latest_svns_stall_playing_music-t20148.html

Versions before the weatheroverlay works fine.

 

[Fantoman]

It may be weather overlay related, however the problem still exists when the weather overlay is turned off...

Todays SVN seems to be quite a bit better, but there is still a little bit of a flicker there...

The attached screenshot sort of shows what is happening... the coverart seems to be flashing a second time.....

Sorry, I can not reproduce this error. Coverart is not flickering in any way for me.

Is only if you have a gui offset and weather overlay is enable

 

[northern]

Reinstalled 0.2.2.0 -- perfect. No flickering.
applied SVN 13302: Random freezes seems to have disappered. Other users also report freezez are gone..but, flickering persists.
No one else with this problem?

I get the flickering in the upper left corner only in combination with the normal BlueTwo skin. The problem does not occur if I use BlueTwo Wide.

It is not related to the weatheroverlay since that is removed in the current svn. I have not calibrated the UI.

Oh, thanks for the info. I'll try blue two wide and see if it's gone then.
