Video screen disappears when clicking right mouse button in that screen

Xerpan · 27th July 2005, 15:38

Installed 5.094 over 5.093 yesterday and now i have a problem that didn't occur in 5.093.

Producing the problem:
1) Start a video file (in my case mpg and avi produced the same results).
2) position your mouse pointer in the video screen and right click to get the menu where you can choose the screen size.
3) move your mouse to select an option.
4) The video screen disappears, while the sound plays on.

To get the screen back:
5) click the stop button in winamp
6) click the start button in winamp to start the video file again.
7) watch your screen carefully. Somewhere (in most cases in the top-left corner) you will see a small piece of the video screen.
8) drag the screen back to a position so you can watch it again.

My system:
MB=Gigabyte GA-7N400Pro-2, with 1 GB dual channel memory
VC=Asus V9520
SC=SB Audigy
OS=Windows XP-SP2 with all the latest updates.

This behaviour didn't happen in the previous version and my system hasn't changed for months. So i see no point in producing any further details about my system.

I have done some further testing and discovered when using classic skins (including the standard Winamp one) this behaviour is seen. The standard modern skin works allright.

Sorry, but we can't reproduce this. Anyone else?

Was this a clean install of 5.094 with no 3rd-party plugins?

Did a clean install today and everything works OK now. Old and modern skins.
I will see if i can find out what caused the problem.

I also did a clean install, but the problem is still here. 5.094 has a very buggy video window. 5.093 was okay ... it was fixed in 5.1, but it's not offical ... could you please think about a fix in 5.095 ?

There will be no 5.095.
5.1 will be the next release (currently in beta and awaiting to go final shortly).

Note: the leaked/buggy 5.1beta3 builds are not supported and are already out of date (ie. new fixed internal builds now exist).

ps. please don't revive old threads by crossposting ;-)
