Dear guys.

I haven't image on my TV (audio is Ok) when I play videos (doesn't matter codec, Mpeg2, Divx, WMV,...) when MP is in full screen mode. If I'm going to windows screen (Alt+Enter) then image appears, if I press again Alt+Enter to full screen then image is ok as well, and it's ok playing videos until I exit MP.

If in full screen mode (when no image) I select in Zoom options "Original" then image appears in center of screen.

I've tested diferent video decoders, Nvidia Purevideo, Dscaler, Ciberlink etc.. with same result.

When I first go from full screen to windows screen during a video play I notice that is in that moment that PureVideo icon is loaded in windows taskbar. Seems that decoders are not loaded in full screen mode.

Any idea ???

MediaCenter is playing videos in full screen mode in this system.

Thanks in advance.

Ok, problem solved.

Just Check off "use exclusive DirectX" mode and now works perfect.

Thanks

finally I found someone with the same issue. This has been bugging me for ages. I think it must be to do with running the video at 1080p because I have the exact same TV as you.

see my original post

The fix has changed though. you need to disable vmr9 exlusive mode in the filter properties
