Issues with software
« on: November 25, 2014, 10:34:48 PM »
I am running the latest version (3.6.7) of xlights in windows 7-64 and the preview will often not play and I get a lot of errors while editing. Also, I get interesting displays on my desktop after exiting, see the enclosed picture. Do I need to run this in xp compatibility mode?

Will send sequence and setup files if it will help.

Thanks
Ron

Well, my show ran perfectly last year, and Xlights was totally solid. During the year, I added a video card to add multiple display support. Since the error looks like a video issue, I pulled the card. This seems to have resolved my issues. Strange.

Your video card drivers are not happy with the newest OpenGL video improvements.
If you update the video card drivers, it will probably fix it.
