--- Quote from: tij on September 08, 2019, 02:19:44 pm ---can you attach your madVR settins (zipped ... its setting.bin in JRiver plugin directory located in user roaming profile)
... also try restarting without monitor plugin ... jyst TV ... see if that helps to eliminate possibility of 2nd monitor causing the problem
... does this happen to all types of video files (bluray rips? ... UHD rips? ... 3D?) ... is there sound coming when black screen shows? ... can you stop playback of black screen and return back to MC?
PS. as you are owner of thread ... you can change its title to something like [not solved] ... to attract more attention from develipers

Hi tij, first of all, thanks for your advice.
I tried starting the PC without the monitor connected, just the TV and I get the black screen too. There is sound playing normally, also I can see JRiver bar at the top (and play/pause, stop, etc). The OSD does not work neither the Ctrl+J of madvr. I have tried some videos downloaded from Youtube and a couple BluRay rips, all with the same results.
I have now changed the topic to not solved (thanks for that suggestion).
Edit: I forgot to attach the settings zipped.

Okay, tij picked up on my followup questions. It appears MC is outputting to the correct monitor/TV. I'll leave you two to discuss madVR settings, so I'm no expert.
However, it does seem to be a KB4512941 and madVR issue. Did madshi respond to your query?
Also, the first time you uninstalled KB4512941 video started working again. Do you still have a Restore Point you can restore back to to get it working, without KB4512941 installed? That would appear to be the short term solution, until Microsoft/madshi fix the issue.

Hi RoderickGI, madshi have not answered yet to my post in Doom9 forum. But I doubt it is madvr related only beacuse it works fine with MPC-HC. It only happens when using JRiver in combination with madvr (JRiver+EVR works fine too). I can uninstall the update and block it/hide it, but I do not know if this leaves my system open to vuelnerabilities.

If you want to progress the issue, rather than just avoid it by uninstalling KB4512941, compare the DirectShow Graphs between MPC-HC and MC using RO HQ. Maybe there is something obvious.
tij:
I ran my MC with your MadVR settings (on NVidia 1070 … different Windows version and Nvidia drivers ofcourse) and it works
Things to keep in check … JRiver uses its own copy of MadVR (located in [user]\AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 25\Plugins\madvr)
Check whether MadVR settings in JRiver (access through MC options) matches MadVR settings of your MPC-HC (access through MadVR tray icon on desktop) ... also check version of MadVR for both
PS. I also notice in your MadVR setting [devices]->[display mode] … you have 2160p24, 2160p50, 2160p60
you should really match all refresh rate as 24 is not 23.97 … so something like
2160p23, 2160p24, 2160p25, 2160p29, 2160p30, 2160p50, 2160p59, 2160p60
PSS. screenshot of your Nvidia setting will be helpful … one of [change resolution] stuff on bottom (output format, color depth, dynamic range, etc) … one of your multiple monitor setup
