TheShanMan 34 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) I have a photo screensaver that runs, and when I hit a key and come back to Emby, playing videos results in a completely black screen but the audio plays. So the video is playing but with no picture. I used to have windows prompt for a password after the screensaver and this problem didn't happen then. So for some reason without the password prompt, i.e. a direct transition from the screensaver back to emby, the problem happens. The workaround is to restart emby theater after the screensaver ends, but that's a pretty lousy workaround. The other workaround is to reinstate the password prompt but I don't want to do that! I'm running 3.0.6 because of the overlay problem in subsequent versions btw. Edited January 2, 2020 by TheShanMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hmm, that's quite strange. Does it change the windows display mode? I wouldn't think so but that's all I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShanMan 34 Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 I don't think so but I'll try it with a different screensaver and see if I can still repro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShanMan 34 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 Built in Windows screensavers don't seem to cause the problem so I'll find a different photos screensaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
