Title: Blank Thumbnails in Showroom (Theatre View)
Post by: Mudguppie on January 30, 2013, 07:33:35 pm
I'm evaluating MC 18 on a WinXP SP3 laptop.  Thumbnails will appear in other Theater View screens except "Showroom" mode.  All that appears in showroom mode is a bunch of blank thumbnails.  I can manipulate the tiles with my touchscreen but, they're still blank.  I downloaded all of the latest drivers for the Mobile Intel(R) 945 Express Chipset Family. Yet, I still get an "Error Drawing using Direct3D (Device lost)" upon Theater View start-up.  I did try searching this site as well as the entire internet and could find no suggestions.

Please help.

Many thanks.

Welcome.

I wonder if it's this same problem, which will hopefully be fixed in the next build:

I read that thread and, I guess it could be the same problem.  I get the cover art okay in all but the Showroom view where I get the blank tiles.  I guess there's no way to get the .026 version until it's officially released which may be past my evaluation time.

I did install MC 18 on two other machines...a netbook running WinXP and Intel graphics with the same results.  I also installed it on a laptop running Win 7 Pro with an NVidia graphics chipset and it worked fine.  Is there a problem with supporting the Intel integrated graphics chipset I wonder?

Thanks.

It was released earlier today:

That's good news.

Sorry for the trouble.
