I split this from the app thread as my gut tells me that this may be related to another issue @loonytu reported in a separate thread.

The act of double-click to launch PinballX as aluded to 8n the thread title is different than "starting when the computer loads." Please clarify if it is launching multiple instances of PinballX on computer start or when double-clicking a shortcut. Thanks

If you setup a batch file to run the command lines to kill both processes (VPx and PUP) what happens?

I edited the title of this thread accordingly. Knowing that it impacts multiple PUP tables is more beneficial for a possible solution. Thanks for testing your collection further and reporting back.

Doubtful that PinballX will be "bug fixed" for one-off issues with tables launching PUp packs via Pinup Player. @scuttersreference is probably the best alternative available. Of course, this is just my opinion as I am not the PinballX author.

You indicated Sunday that you resolved all but 1 table (ACDC). Do you have a log from after trying to record that one table?

Seems that ACDC has been a problem child for various reasons over the years.

Was that with using the two lines that Tom suggested or without?

I haven't reloaded these on my gaming PC or the latest GameEx on it for that matter so may take a while for me to test unless Tom sees something right away.

I assume that you are using the latest versions of both Model2 and SuperModel emulators?

Is it happening for all games, some games randomly, or only specific ones? If the latter, can you list the games impacted? Thanks!

Can you add the following manually under the [VideoCapture] section of your pinballx.ini and provide updated copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files and results? UseGDIGrab=true noplayfieldthread=true

https://vpuniverse.com/forums/topic/9420-pup-packs-not-closing-in-vpx/ - this specifically references Iron Maiden.

Is that the only table that is not closing properly? If it is the only table of several using PUP then it may not necessarily be PinballX. Please provide examples of other tables if there are any.
