    Solved Videos black screening , but when second instance is opened, it works.

    As the title says, my internal player for irfanview doesnt work on initial opening, but does when a second instance is opened while first one is going.

    I discovered it because I noticed it wasnt working on one monitor, but did on the other. I saw that my second monitor was using my intergrated graphics card. This leads me to believe its something with my graphics card, but, I cant find any work around. Windows 10 doesnt let me disable hardware acceleration so I have no clue if it thats the issue.

    I was hoping someone has had this issue before and could help me find out my problem.

    Edit: Things Ive tried--- Reinstalling, reinstalling codecs, updating drivers and messing with the video settings in the program.

    See Irfan Skiljan's reply to the black screen problem reported in this thread.

          Emailed the developer and he replied with a new test version that has fixed the problem. He will likely release the new version soon.
