almost 'black' in the preview window

[bumper2007]

Running SmartCutter ver 1.3.4 or earlier on a machine with display card Intel 82945G Express Chipset. But I can't get the central big screen showing when playing video. The series of small screen boxes work normally but I do need to have that bigger screen working. It is not really 'blackout' but playing the video in extremely low brightness (almost not able to see), and obviously it is compressed in size so video is played in only one third of that screen area. PLEASE NOTE that the video file works when using SmartCutter some other machines

I also encountered this issue in another machine installed with Matrox P690 LP PCIe x16 card.

Just found that someone got the same issue as mine, and post in Dec as: http://www.fame-ring.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=126
The screen dump in that post showing exactly the same problem I encountered.


information of the PC:
OS: XP Pro SP3
video card (2 machine tried): Intel 82945G Express Chipset / Matrox P690 LP PCIe x16 card
no. of monitor: single monitor with that Intel Chipset; 3 monitors with that Matrox

Dear bumper2007:
Thanks for your posting.

In the Options, there are two different settings,
Enable Full-Screen
Auto De-Interlace

Could you please try to change them and see whether this helps?

Looking forward to your further message.
Thank you very much.

Best Regards,
