Windows Desktop displays before video playback

Hi,

This has been an annoyance for a long time, I just keep putting off posting about it.

Whenever I start video playback, I always see part of my Windows Desktop before the playback starts.

Is there a setting somewhere to stop this happening?

GPU is a NVIDIA 1660Ti

Here is a video to show the issue:

Thanks

I had this, and it seems to be related to Windows multiple displays and HDMI EDID. I resolved it by using a hardware EDID device between the HTPC and AVR:

Could also be a video driver problem.

Hmm, interesting,  I am running 2 "displays".  One HDMI output is only used for the audio, the other for the video.

I see you also use a harmony remote.

Can you remember how you got it to switch back Theater View once in Standard View.

I can send two "escapes" to get out of Theater View, but not sure how to get back, as Ctrl+4 isn't a  command harmony has.

Thanks
