Barximus Guest | I found out how to fix the problem for all players. I used the ATI control center clicked on preferences and restored all factory defaults. This of course will only work for people with ATI control.

topcat139 Guest | The problem you all ran into is the fact that there is a restriction on overlays for dual monitor situations. Windows isn’t designed for it. You can have only one overlay running on one monitor. Also hardware accel. only runs on the Primary monitor. Disabling the overlay or using an alternate renderer will work but you may see your cpu jump to a very hihg load. There are work arounnds for ATI (which is what I have, 9800 pro 128) But it involves quite alot of registry mods and is pretty confusing. Unfortunately I have never actually written any of it down :{, But, I do have overlays and accel running on both monitors.
The first thing I did was to force the hardware to accept the secondary monitor as the primary. Ie; my HDTV is considered the Primary mon. on my system. Checking the primary on the control panel will NOT make it Primary in hardware, only how the apps display. So apps will open on that mon. fisrt, but accel and overlays will still be restricted to the 'primary' which is actually the secondary according to windows cp.
Install the vid drivers with only the Secondary monitor connected, this will force windows and the driver to call it Primary, the after it’s completed, add/connect the desktop mon, or your normal primary, anad then extend the desktop to it.
There is more that needs to be changed in the regisrtry, but that varies according to the vid card.
As for mpeg2, well, the moonlight-elecard mpeg2 decoder is one that can be fooled into maintaining the hardware accel to both monitors. No fancy tricks either. The moonlight version can do this, the elecards wont. Yes I am well aware that they are basically the same company, and no I have no idea what the difference is with the decoders, but the moonlights with dxva in it will run on both screens, saving quite a few cpu cycles. The only thing to do is hardware accel in the registry setting for the moonlights. If you just click it in the interface, it will unclick when you run mpg2 on the secondary monitor, if you set it in the reg, then it stays that way.
Luck,
topcat139
(ps. Different apps use different renderers, that’s probably why Nero will not run for you. If you want to see what does and does not work on your system, the easiest way I’ve found to do that was to use Media PLayer Classic, and then choose the renderers by hand. You can run through ALL the renderers available on your system that way and see how it runs.)

Any detailed info on how to fix the problem/wats causing it?

Bahne Guest | I had same problem... sound no video, which i used to have.
I tried jon hitler’s suggestion of MP10 options->tools etc... didnt work.
I had some minor problems with VLC, if i resized the window it would blackout too. I could if i was lucky, resize it again and get video once more.
I have figured out the problem, on my end anyways. I have Nvidea and utilize tv-output, so im in essence having 2 monitors connected and thus must use overlay. However, they specify that refresh rate can affect it.
So.. I checked my refresh rate, coz i remembered i had played with that not long ago. I set it at 72 and wuptidu.. i have video again. Odly enough it was black and white, so i unchecked the “use high quality” thing in MP10 and bam I had color again.
Fairly easy for you to check before hazzling with installing/uninstalling etc.. try different resolutions with different refresh rates.

Did you find a solution ?
Not really just a suggestion. I think you should try and reinstall your pc, just do that & see what up, but then you’ll have to back up all your data first. let me know what up afterward.

Annihilator Guest | I know this is old but I have fixed this problem on my PC and hopefully this post will help someone searching for the fix.
I have a GeForce6800GS so using Nvidia control panel the classic panel not the stupid new one:
Go to: Performance and Quality Settings on the left panel.
Click the View drop down box and select Advanced Settings if needed
Make sure if your running a single monitor that Hardware Acceleration is set for Single Display
Go to Color Correction on the left panel and set the color settings to default.
This fixed my issues, I am using the 93.71 drivers.

Annihilator Guest | Whoops the second part you actually need to go to Video Overlay Settings and hit Reset to Defaults. This was the case with mine at least, something threw my saturation completely out of whack. The first part should get your video back up, the second one will get your color balance fixed. Mine was all white/black/grey before I did the second part.

scifigal2k Guest | ok, I really need help. I had sound, no video. I have Windows Media Player 11. I tried to get back to player 10 and it didn’t help. But I have nVidia codec. I really don’t know anything about computers, I just want to play DVDs on my laptop. I tried uninstalling nVidia and doing
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=53761&package_id=59355 like the guy said to do at the top of the screen, but then I didn’t get sound or video at all, so I’ve reinstalled nvidia. What should I do now?

I had the same problem: audio but no video in all players. (it only worked in WinAmp when I unchecked the overlay property).
But now I have it working on all players.... for me the problem was I am using a laptop and have a CRT connected, and use just the CRT. well the laptop was set to dual mode (CRT and the laptop’s LCD, even though the laptop was closed). as a side note, all video always worked on the LCD, but would be blank on the CRT.
when I switch to just CRT, everything started working fine.
if you’re not using a laptop, this still may lead you in the right direction, as I think your problem must have something to do with the video adaptor (assuming you have all the right codec installed).
For the past 6 months I have had audio no video in all players with all codecs and all file types. after reformatting I had video until I installed any type of player or codec, then no video! I cried all night. Well turns out my laptop was set to dual monitor by DEFAULT! After making lcd the only monitor all players and codecs worked! THANK YOU SO MUCH !

Russ Nelson Guest | Just had this problem resurface again with an ATI user who had a laptop trying to show a PowerPoint presentation with embedded movies and the movie only played on the laptop monitor and the movie was black in either a second monitor or OHP. He didn’t have the ATI Catalyst Control Center installed so I couldn’t control the overlay settings for the driver. Upgraded the driver for his Mobility Radeon 9700 to the new Mobility 7.4 Catalyst driver. From the Catalayst Control Center, went into the Displays Manager section (which was set to Clone). Then went into the Video/All Settings section. In the Overlay Display Mode, it said [Clone Mode shows overlay: “In Standard mode”]. As soon as I changed this from the dropdown list to “the same on all displays”, it worked perfectly. Note: didn’t have to change the primary overlay setting. Hope this helps anyone with ATI cards as my previous one was for nVidia users.

Russ Nelson Guest | skatteredbrain’s solution is the long way round but since it works, great.
Note: You should find that in the majority of cases your VIDEO card overlay will override the individual overlay settings of all the apps (see post #50). So up to you whether you want to do it once (via ATI or nVidia setings) or set it up in each app’s settings.
