Blank Screen TV-Out

Postby makemeegg » 03 Jul 2007 05:57

I am getting a black screen on my TV when I used VLC player to watch a movie. If I look at the monitor I can see the movie playing in VLC player but when I look at the TV the image is black. I have tried the same movie with WMP and it works fine. I have tried other .avi movies as well with the same results. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Thanks

Shut down "Overlay video output" in Preferences, Video.

The clone function on your video card to watch TV and your main monitor at the same time is NOT recommended.
