Hi Markus,
You can post in madVR forum
You need to manually install madVR first (madVR and set madVR in MP config, default settings works, after you can read doom9 forum for other settings
But if you install madVR and set madVR from MP, it should works

OK. I will test, but not now, because otherwise my wife will kill me.
Can I ask amother question. Is it possible to install a second MP1 beside me productive one? It would be easier to test.

Thanks
Markus

Yes, in fact you can copy your folder from programfiles like this you can rename it and test when you want

Looks like Kodi has the same issue
#17669 (Black screen when changing refresh rate (in Win10 since 1709), AMD GPU and Intel IGPU) – Kodi - TRAC

Hope that MS and AMD have a fix soon

FWIW, I tried madVR on my system and it did not fix the blank screen on resume from standby problem. I'm not using refresh rate changing so I don't know if it helps with that.

Could you post logs (watchdog tool first option) to see if it's the same issue ?
Thanks.

Yes, here they are...
Start MP from watchdog
Put PC to sleep
Wake PC up
Black screen until I pressed Windows key to bring up start menu
Close MP

When the screen is black, the telly is getting a signal - it's just all black. MP is responsive because you can still do things like closing MP if you memorise the key strokes, just can't see anything (and if you do close MP this way the desktop is visible - it's just the MP application itself that stops updating the display). The same thing apparently happens with other DirectX apps from what I've read, but my HTPC is the only machine I use sleep on.

Hope that helps somebody...

EDIT: These logs are not while I was running madVR - it made no difference to me except making videos take longer to start, so I went back to EVR. If you want logs using madVR I can make some

Yep, it seems to be related to this :

[2018-01-03 20:08:42,449] [Log    ] [MPMain   ] [INFO ] - Main: Video Device or Screen Intel(R) HD Graphics removed
[2018-01-03 20:08:42,449] [Log    ] [MPMain   ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_POWERSETTINGCHANGE)
[2018-01-03 20:08:42,449] [Log    ] [MPMain   ] [INFO ] - Main: The display is on
[2018-01-03 20:08:42,449] [Log    ] [MPMain   ] [INFO ] - Main: Video Device or Screen Intel(R) HD Graphics connected

Intel(R) HD Graphics is removed and added but when this happen (i already try a long time ago to restore GPU but MP Form C# didn't handle such) MP lost rendering device

Just to be sure, an alt+enter to switch MP to windowed didn't works right ?
