Window blinds 6.0 and vlc

April 19, 2010 1:39 AM from

I bought WB 6.0 a while ago, never had this issue until now. this is newly reformated windows XP media center 2005 with a nvidia vide card. everytime i play a movie with VLC it plays with a gray screen. I unloaded WB to see if that was the issue and it is why.

I tried updating VLC no go. I also put vlc in WB so that it does not skin it all and ignores it still same issue

This is due to an overlay init bug in the VLC code.

If you install the latest WB 6 build (6.4) it should contain code to workaround this issue - though you will need to remove it from the exclusion list as otherwise the workaround will not take effect.
