Description Of Issue
A Black Screen occurs with audio playing after launching Roon clients on these two PCs using the most recent version of Roon 1.7 build 667 on both PCs. This only occurs if you try to resize the window in any way. Very frustrating and making Roon pretty much unuseable for me.
I have scoured for information on hopw to fix this and all the reports of this and noone has a fix except to never resize the Window. Uh uh. Not good enough. I do not think I can renew my year if this cannot be fixed. Very frustrating as it does not occur on my PC Roon server.
Running latest Nvidia graphics drivers on both systems and it happened on last driver set on one of the systems first. RTX2080 Super on one system and GTX1080 on the other.
I just tried with my windows computer with ATI Radeon Graphics. I enabled MSI Afterburner that I use to show FPS etc. in Games. the Roon App went black and I could not see anything. I turned off the Afterburner and re-started Roon and it worked normally. So, the overlay app certainly cause the Roon app to blackout.
Hello @James_Memije, and my apologies for the trouble here. Kristian is correct, overlay software can cause issues, could you please try the following?
Reinstall your graphics driver from the manufacturer’s website (not from windows)
Try the 32-bit version of Roon
Check for and disable overlay software and try to on Roon
Let me know if you see any changes from doing this!
