Title: Black window after minimizing
Post by: hamballe on July 27, 2021, 04:20:28 am: I'm getting a black window after minimizing and restoring Media Center 26. It normally happens the first time when minimizing, sometimes though it appears after the second or third time.

I have the newest Nvidia driver installed on my Windows 10 64bit (all updates installed). I have also removed and reinstalled Media Center 26.0.107 (64-bit) - no success.

Does anybody have an idea what could help?

What kind of driver do you have in mind? The graphics driver I suppose. But why then none of my other applications shows this problem?

Because that's how bugs are. It might work with everything but MC and still be a video driver bug.

I'm sorry you have the problem, but as you describe it, I can't see how it's a JRiver bug.

In my signature, there's a link to Weird Problems. Take a good look there and see how many times these JRiver problems turn out to be caused by other software.
