I don't know when this started happening but it's annoying to see the white line of the taskbar after starting playback of video from Theater View. At the moment I have to ALT-TAB to make Display View fullscreen.

So am I the only one with this problem?
I'm running Windows 10 and have the Auto-hide the taskbar option ticked.

Working fine here (Windows 10 and I tried with Auto-Hiding off and on.)

I think I've seen this kind of issue before with busted GPU drivers (not necessarily with MC, but with fullscreen applications in general).

Thanks for the reply. Did you go to Display View from Theater View after selecting your video?

I'm not sure why that's relevant, but yes, at least 3 times tonight and last night.

I'm not sure that it is relevant. I was simply wondering if my problem was being caused by where MC was going from and to. Seemingly from your testing and feedback it turns out not .

Yeah. Sorry. I use Theater View on my HTPC for all of my normal TV watching and playback, so definitely would have noticed this right away.

When I tested for you from my server system, I didn't use Theater View, and went directly from Standard View to Display View (both via Playing Now, and not, it turns out). In no case could I replicated it. My HTPC happens to have an nvidia card, my server PC an AMD card, FWIW.

As I mentioned, I've seen behavior just like this generally on Windows with a borked GPU driver in the past. It could also, conceivably, be messed up madvr settings if you've customized those at all.

Hmmm, thanks again for some more ideas. I am running an AMD ATI card and have fiddled quite a bit with madVR settings. I might try stripping them back to defaults and see what happens.
